We had them come in together. We only had one BM and one GM and they were my FIL and SIL so it was sort of cute seeing them walk together!
AWwwwwww that is totally cute:) None of our people are married to each other.
Our GMs will probably be escorting the mothers and grandmothers, but yes, the BMs will come in solo.
We have ours coming in togather except for the MOH who will walk alone because the best man will be at the alter with finace. I have seen it done SO many ways.
Gemstone, since your BMs are coming in alone how are the GM coming in?
the guys will all be at the altar waiting at the start of the ceremony.. the BMs will walk in one at time down the aisle. After the end of the mass they will walk out paired off down the aisle.
:)
Lovespearls, FI's two Bests willbe at the altar alrady too.
That's close to mine, Krissy. I just haven't decided what to do with the guys :)
@PrncssDva - I don't know exactly yet (don't have the exact logistics figured out), but in my head, I see FI and his Best Man in front, and then the GMs will escort the grandmothers and mothers in at the very beginning of the processional. Does that make sense?
Of course, this is subject to change, but that's my plan for now. :)
The guys will already be at the altar, then I'll have the girls come in by themselves. After the ceremony, they'll all leave as "couples".
I got ya, gemstone. The logistical part is what's throwing me off. I am trying to figure min eout completely too :)
Miss Chocolate, that's the same as Krissybee.
Does the church tell you whether or not you have the bridesmaids walk down the aisle with or without the groom?
@PrncssDva, as goofy as it sounds, I suggest making a chart. :) It will make everything easier to visualize. Will you want the mothers and grandmothers to be escorted down the aisle? I've also seen the men enter down the side aisle of the church, which worked fine too.
PrncssDva- are you thinking the guys will walk down the aisle before the bridesmaids? or one guy walk down, one girl walk down and so on? that may work. i think my FI and his guys will come out to the front from a side entrance or the back room at the front of the altar.
Miss Chocolate- hey! yeah we are doing the same thing :D
Best man already at the altar with the groom, the other two groomsmen escorting the Moms, bridesmaids on their own. During the recessional the bridesmaids and groomsmen will walk together. Works out perfectly with our numbers.
The GM will be walking in with the groom and my BM will be walking in one at a time from the back. Everyone will be paired up for the recessional though.
my mom wants everyone to walk alone. talk about looooooong. 6 bridesmaids, 7 groomsmen, 3 flower girls, 1 ring bearer. rabbi, mom, FI's parents and FI, me and my dad. good lord.
im thinking b/c its a HUGE bridal party we have to double up and go BM with a GM.
Gemstone and Krissy, I am having one of my little brothers (he can't be in the party, because he lives in AK) to escort my mom in. Fi's cousin will be escorting FMIL in. I am thinking about alternating the BMs and GM coming in alone.
More people than I thought are agreeing with the ladies walking alone, then everyone paired up afterwards.
I have a slightly unique situation. One attendant for each of us, and an outdoor wedding with no where for me to "hide" before the ceremony. So what we're doing is having the reverend and the groom walk to the front and have the music stop to signify that we're starting. Everyone sits. Then the BH and MOH will walk up with their music. Afterwords, my dad will drive me up to the hill and my music will play as he walks me down the "aisle". A tad complicated, but I'm happy with it.
We're having the Best (wo)Man walk alone, then the Maid of Honor walk alone, but then the 2 bridesmaids will walk in with the groomsmen. We're doing it this way because the FI has a mixed gender party (best woman?) and think it works best :) Then the groom will walk in, escorted by both of his parents and I will walk in escorted by both of mine :)
I think the BMs and GMs will walk in as couples, followed by the MoH and Best Man, then FI (possibly escorted by his parents - he hasn't decided) and finally me, escorted by my parents.
best man at the alter with the groom
MOH walking alone before me
BM and MOH will walk together at the recessional
officiant, groomsman, groomsman, groom with his 2 older sons, bridesmaid, bridesmaid, bridesmaid, my daughter and our son, then me and my older son. So individually and everyone walking to the alter then on our way out it'll be me and him, all of our children, bridesmaid & groomsman, bridemaid & groomsman, bridesmaid. It's a little uneven but they're all cool with it.
We're having the groom and the priest up at the altar, then the groomsmen and bridesmaids walk in together (there's 5 of each) and then the ring bearer and flower girl together...then Dad and me!
We thought about having all of the groomsmen at the front, not making the procession, but we thought it might be too confusing with them ushering in the guests/mothers/grandmothers.
Ours is outside on the grass, with 3 steps up to a little stage. I am having them pair up as they come in so my bridesmaids will have a buddy to lean on in their heels! I don't want my girls to trip as they go up the steps!
The church where we are holding our ceremony has a center aisle, stairs leading up to the stage, and an aisle coming from the side of the room straight to the stairs at the stage (kind of hard to explain... if you can picture an upside down L, thats kind of how both aisles meet at the stairs)
I am going to have the GM's come from the side aisle to the stairs,have them stand there and wait for the BM to walk down the aisle, once the BM reaches the stairs, I am going to have the GM escort her up the stairs arm in arm, and then have them split off to their traditional sides of the stage... if that makes any sense. :)

I think that I want the BMs and Groosmen to come in alone....one at a time. It kind of symbolizes FI and I being single. Then after the ceremony they can grab arms with their "partner" and walk out together, since we'll be one then. What is everyone else doing?
