Help Please - What was your processional order?

We will be having the following people take part in our wedding....but I am confused as to what order we should walk down the aisle. Traditionally, the groom and bestman normally stand and wait at the alter. But, I am open to anything:
Minister
Groom
Bestman
Maid of Honour
Dad + Bride

Any Suggestions would be great!

    The minister and the groom will already be standing there (usually). The the best man and MOH can walk in together followed by you and your dad.

    Is anyone including the mothers (MOB & MOG) in their processional?  I'm considering this:

    Groom (walking with MOG)
    Groomsman, my brother (walking with MOB)
    Best Man (perhaps walking with my grandmother?)
    Bridesmaid
    Maid of Honor
    Matron of Honor
    Me & Dad

    i like the idea of including parents in the processional....i know for me it wont because my MOG isnt attending and my mom has made it quite clear that she doesnt want to stand out, which was fine by us

    I think our minister walked down. Then Husband, then Best Man (in our case Best Woman), MOH, then me and my dad.

    I don't like my step mom, so I didn't want to start seating parents bc I thought it could get messy.

    Me too, except luckily my dad is only dating this woman and not married to her! I made it clear that she wouldn't get treated like a family member.

    my future hubby and the best man will already be at the alter (or the front of the scene ~ depends where we decide on having our ceremony) and the maid of honor will walk in alone and then i plan on walking in alone. this is both of our second weddings and we want to do everything different then we did for our first weddings.. and to all of knotties that arent big fans of the step-mother.. we totally feel ya and we are trying not to hurt her feelings but its bound to happen.. o well!

    For ours the minister, groom, and groomsmen all came in the side door and waited at the front as the wedding started.

    We had the following walk down the aisle
    FOG and Grandmother of groom
    MOB & MOG
    BMs
    MOH
    FOB & Bride

    Mine is the same as Natalia's - Groom & Best Man waiting at the front, bridesmaid walking alone then me walking alone! I like the idea of the mothers being escorted and will have to give it a bit more thought - maybe our two GM could escort them once everyone else is seated. I wouldn't consider it part of the processional though.

    I did make a concession by ordering her a corsage & during family pictures in the chapel, after I took pix w/ just my dad, I let her in the pictures. So I wasn't a complete b!tch! :)
