Jumping the broom in a big dress

How do keep from carrying the broom down the aisle with you? Seriously? LOL!! I was thinking of getting my MOH to hold the train while we jumped and continue to hold it until she can she the broom then swipe it and continue the recessional.

    That could work or you could assign someone who is not in the bridal party to make sure it makes it out of the ceremony

    I didnt make that clear enough.  Ok actually having the broom disappear under the dress as I am walking.  Like we jump it and it drags with me while I am walking.  The dress I am looking at is A-line slightly big a cathedral train.

    We just jumped and when my MOH went to straighten out the train she was able to pull the broom from underneath my gown.

    I didn't jump the broom but I had a huge dress with a train and we had to walk to light the unity candle.  I had my MOH throw the train over my arm as I moved around. Maybe you could do that, with a big jump and completely clear the broom.
