So Ive been reading a lot about the Walk down the aisle tradition. Im not really That close with either of my parents and I don't like the whole giving away idea Im grown, enough said. lol But I am sort of a people pleaser and don't want to offend anyone by walking down the aisle completely by myself so I thought of an alternative. And want some opinions on this idea. Its a garden ceremony to give you a visual.
What if I had both of my parents would walk me to the beginning of the aisle one on each side, give me a cheek kiss and then they would link arms and walk down the aisle together (They are not together but they are on good terms). I being left at the beginning of the aisle will be free to make that lovely walk by myself to meet my FH at the alter!
Pros: I don't offend anyone, I get to have that intimate walk down the aisle just looking at FH, I get great pics of me (and my dress) walking down the aisle, in addition to giving both my parents what I believe they really want. I feel like its very symbolic, your parents get you to a certian point and then you take yourself the rest of the way.
Con: It may look weird, the rehearsal is in two weeks so we will be able to try it out then. It may be awkward just standing at the beginning of the aisle as they make their way to the end to their seats.
Delima: When should the Bridal entrance song begin? When I walk with the both of them or when I begin my walk alone at the beginning of the aisle?
Or is this just weird and I should just decide to go alone or just go with tradition and have them both walk me down?
Thanks for reading!
