I really wanted my uncle and my brother to walk me down the aisle. I love them both very very much and they were the only males in my life before I met my fiance. That being said my brother was totally fine with having both of them walk me down the aisle. But when I asked my uncle if he would walk with me too, he basically said well you need to pick one or the other! It really upset me! Am I over reacting? How should I handle the situation now? ugh... please help! TIA!

    If that's how he feels than I would choose my brother. I don't think it's fair of him to make you choose.

    This. I would tell him that if he's going to make you pick, you'll go with your brother. Especially since you already basically asked him, it would be awful of you to take that back.

    I agree. Choose your brother.

    Shame on him for not accepting such an amazing offer!  I'd tell him that you're sad that he's making you choose between the two and not accepting this honor and that you've chosen your brother.

    I would let your uncle know that you would really like it if he would escort you with your brother and that you won't choose. Does your uncle think you are breaking a tradition or written wedding law that would invalidate your marriage or something? I'm only half joking. Some people think that traditions are written in stone. If he is aware it's allowed, but still wants you to choose... choose the person who does not ask you to choose.

    Have you had a chance to sit down with him and ask why he feels there can be only one to walk you down the aisle?   He may be uncomfortable with being on display.  He may be thinking of the tradition where only one person walks a bride down the aisle or he may not want to usurp your brother's place.  Until you talk to him face to face, you don't know what he is thinking.

    Thank you ladies so much for the help! I'm goin to pick my brother, regardless I will be happy, my brother is a Marine so to have him walk me down the ailse in his dress blue has been what I wanted since before i was engaged! I know my uncle still love me but if he wants to be stubborn then I dont have time for it. I'm doin all the planning, budgetting, and DIY stuff myself, and raising my two children. So it probably wont even be brought up again, my brother is more that happy to walk with me! Thanks again ladies!
