Bridesman?

  I had a friend whose brother was her Honor Attendant.  He walked down the aisle, the same as a female Honor Attendant would have.
  
  Another possibility for you: My DD and SIL had their WP process in together.  They happened to have same gender sides, so a GM escorted a BM.  When they got to the end of the aisle, my SIL shook that hand of each GM and kissed each BM, and then they went to their side.
  
  You could do a processional like that and just have your male attendant escort a female attendant.

  You could take the processional escorts out of the equation by having the groomsmen already up front, so only the bride's attendants are processing in.  Then it's just the recessional, which honestly happens so quickly that no one will really notice or care who walks with whom.

  Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

  At most of the weddings I've been to, the guys started at the front and the girls walked up ahead of the bride.  If you did that, he would walk up alone.  Then at the end, they walk out in pairs or in a weave, depending on how many guys/girls and on which sides.  It sort of depends on how many you end up with on either side, but you can always figure something out.

  We had an uneven WP so we just had the GM stand up at the altar w/ DH and the BMs walked down the aisle alone.  That would probably work out well for your situation.  And then on the way back he could go solo or link arms w/ a female BM.  No one really pays attention to the recessional as much as they do to the processional, so you don't need to lose any sleep over this.

  You could have your guy friend walk next to one of the groomsmen.  Obvously they don't link arms, they just walk next to one another.

  I have a bridesman in my wedding - and my FI asked one of his female friends to be a groomsgirl. We are having them walk down the aisle together - but will stand on separate side (the bridesman on my side the groomsgirl on my FI). Does your fiancee have any female friends that he is especially close to that he would like standing up there to support him? or a sister?
