My fiance and I have known for years that we wanted to walk down the aisle together, rather than me being given away by my dad or anyone else. We love the idea of the two of us coming to the altar as a couple to enter this marriage.
In light of this, my question involves the processional proceeding us. (No grandparents are attending.) The groom's mother will be the first seated, and she wants to be escorted by the groom's dad. Makes sense to me, no problem.
My mom is next, but my parents are divorced. Originally I thought my brother would escort her (he's an usher), but then my dad is completely left out. So now I am thinking he should escort my mom. It seems like it would be more strange to leave him out than to have him escort my mom, because then it would be more like all the parents processing in advance of us than the traditional "seating of the mothers."
Do you think this can work?
