Ok so, I am not close to my father at all. he did not raise me. My mother married my now step father about 10 years ago and he's cool but I am not that close with my step father. My aunt helped raised me as her own child soooooooo....... I asked my aunt to walk me down the aisle because she shared in the raising of me. WELLLL my mother is LIVID and its her sister!!! She is still on my phone giving me more grief than I expected. UGH WHY COULDN'T WE JUST ELOPE!!!!

    Sorry you are having to deal with this... weddings tend to bring out the worst in people, don't they?  Is your mother livid b/c you are not asking your father or stepfather? Or do you think she is jealous that it wasn't her?  Ultimately, I think you just have to tell her the reasons behind your choice & ask her to support you.  She doesn't have to agree with you & really, it's not her choice, no matter how much you love her.  Maybe offer her to do a reading or something else special to placate her?

    You have my sympathy!

    My wedding coordinator said that there have been women who have their sisters or friends walk them down the aisle.  Especially if they aren't close to their father/step-father or there is no father in the picture.  I know you don't want to hurt your mom's feelings, but it really is your day and if you are very close to your aunt, do not feel let your mom pressure you into doing it her way.
