June 2012 Weddings

Ceremony Processionals

So, are you ladies having your GM's escort your BM's?
Or are they going to already be standing with your FI and the BM/MOH will enter by themselves..
I can't decide what to do....
On one side, I have people screaming at me about traditional this, traditional that. UGH.

  • I guess I never considered having the GMs already up with FI. We're only having 2 people stand up with each of us, so I think the GM will just escort the BM down the aisle while FI stands and waits.

    Good luck with your decision!

  • The GM are escorting the BM. I don't even know what is considered traditional there. I've seen it done a myriad of ways. Do whatever you want, don't let others bully you in this situation.

  • We are having all Groomsmen wait at the alter, BMs/MOH down the aisle walk alone.
     
    You could also do best man waits at alter, MOH walks alone but BM/grooms are paired up?

  • The Best Man will be at the alter with FI.

    Groomsmen walk down the aisle, some escorting parents, some not
    Bridesmaids walk down aisle
    Ring bearer, with my son escorting (another groomsman) so he feels ok. RB is only 3 so he'll need some assistance.
    Then me with my uncle.

    FI definitely wants his GM (his twin brother) up there with him because he's nervous about standing there as it is. I'm not sure of any other logistics because we have an uneven bridal party ( 4 BM, 3 GM).
  • Now that I think about this.... I dont really care how we do it. I think I will ask the BMs which they prefer. FOR SURE the BM will be in front with FI already, but I think Ill leave it up to my other 3 BMs if they want to walk alone or with a groomsman.

  • I only have a BM/MOH and both of them are just going to be standing at the front already. FI will process in with his parents, then me with mine. My sister had zero desire to make that walk with all eyes on her.

  • they will already be standing with FI at the front of the church. They will walk out together

    This.  They will walk out after the ceremony as couples.

  • Please don't let anybody bully you.  Like Midge said, I'm not certain there is a "traditional" way for this.  We have uneven numbers, so the BM will be standing with FI and all the BM are being escorted by GM.
  • FI's BM will be waiting up front with FI.  Then FBIL will escort FMIL and join them up front.  My brother will escort my mother then join the guys.  My BMs and MOH will walk solo.

  • Our GM are escorting our BM's. This was one of only a few things FI was wanting for the wedding. His BM is in a wheel chair so we will have him on stage already with FI and our first MOH will walk down solo.

    @ Kris...Good call about the RB. Our FG is 4 and I'm worried about her being too nervous to walk. I would have her sister JBM walk her down but they fight like cats and dogs so that wouldn't help lol

    This.  I'm still figuring out the best way to do it.

  • I haven't decided yet. I know no matter what the best man is staying with FI. Do I well probably have the other gm walk to mothers and grandmothers down the aisle then go stand with the groom. Then the bms can walk by themselves.

  • We're having groomsmen escort the bridesmaids because my sister will be the first one to walk out and I know she wouldn't want to do it alone. Since she's walking with my brother, it made sense to have them go as couples.
