Pick the order YOU want! It's your day! I'm lining my girls up how I want and putting them with guys that are taller than them so they look good together.
I can just see my FMIL & FSIL talking behind my back like they always do if i dont do where she is paired with her husband.
Maybe you could compromise and put married couples that are in the bridal party together and then those that don't have a spouse in the wedding party get put together by height? It's really hard to make everyone happy, I know! In reality though they should care about your happiness and shouldn't be stressing you out over the little details just because they're worried about who FSIL will walk with for less than a minute! Some people are just so darn selfish! Sorry girl :(
Just one thought--at my cousin's wedding the men walked in first and the bridesmaids came down the isle one by one (I assume in the order my cousin was closest to them because it definitely had nothing to do with height). Then, during the recessional, the BMs and GMs who were together (one engaged, two married) left together and the other were matched up somehow. It was cute to see the other couples match up to each other and follow the bride and groom out. It might at least be a compromise you could think about!
Maybe ill do it where everyone walks alone. But your right its my wedding. I can do whatever i want. My fi and i registed this weekend. Were getting married on 10-10-10 my fi mom gave us a ugly look when we told her she thinks its to late. I have 8 months and 2 weeks to go cmon. LOL oye shes old fashion this is 2010 not back then!
I've seen some weddings where you're not supposed to pair up couples, but who knows? You should just do what you want and not feel like you have to explain why to anyone.
Mine will factor in height in addition to who I'm closest to because I have to also think about who FI wants closest to him and what are their height. I have a couple tall girls and don't want them walking with anyone shorter, so exceptions will be made.
you could always just make the excuse that you want to do height order, because otherwise it will look silly.
I am doing what Katiebug brought up. We won't be married when we first walk in, so it'll kind of be symbolism. They'll walk in alone and when we walk out together, then they'll be paired up by the way they were standing beside us. Matron of Honor then Maid of Honor then Bridesmaids by height.
Do what you want! I think it's really silly to "have to" have married/engaged couples walk together. It's what, maybe 20 seconds of their lives? They can deal with walking with someone else.
My BMs will walk in by themselves, out with a GM. My sister and her husband are both in the wedding, but since she's MOH she'll walk out with the best man, who isn't her husband, and she could not care less!!
Oh and the order I am doing at the beginning is: FSIL (not that close), good friend, and then MOH (sister). My sister will be standing closest to me, FSIL furthest.
My MOH and his BM will be standing closest to us; everyone else will be in height order. For the walk down the aisle I think people will live not walking next to their spouses, and you certainly don't otherwise want to put people in order of the closeness of your relationship to them because that is just mean. ;)
Pick the order you want! We did it by height. My MOH is acutally the shortest so we just went up in height from their and matched the groomsmen the same way. Except my sister, who is 6', gets to walk with my 2 year old son! Little off in height there!

So my FMIL is persistant on that everyone should be paired up with with thier spouse. oye shes sooo annoying with this.
Not everyone is a couple and i dont think it will kill someone to walk down a aisle for less then a min with someone else.
However, the order if we do did that would not be the order i would want next to me. Im so confused how to make everyone happy?
