So this is one of the silly little details I have to work....

How the heck does everyone get down the aisle?! Tell me if this sounds okay....or needs some tweaking! Open to all suggestions/comments/criticism!

The GMs and Groom will be walking down the aisle to a song that will be playing quietly in the background (song TBD)

Then My mother and grandmother will be escorted down the aisle by my brother who will then take his place in line w/ the GMs.

My FMIL and his grandma will be escorted down the aisle by FFIL

My 3 BMs will walk down the aisle to "Kissing You" by Bliss (SATC Soundtrack)

The Junior BM and her brother aka the Ring Bearer will be walking down the aisle after the BMs

I will be escorted down the aisle by my father to "I'm kissing You" (Desree - Romeo & Juliet Soundtrack).

You're certainly welcome to have everyone process in whatever order you wish, but it is more common for the grandmothers and mothers to lead the processional off first. (It doesn't hurt that this enables Grandma to sit down faster!) Also, unless you have a ton of bridesmaids and groomsmen, I'd recommend sticking to only one piece of music for everyone prior to the bride; otherwise it could feel choppy. Here was our order of processional:

Bride's grandmother (escorted by an usher)

Bride's mother (escorted by an usher)

Groom's mother (escorted by the groom) - groom's father following immediately behind, by himself

Bridesmaid and best man

Bridesmaid and groomsman

Maid of honor (by herself; we had an uneven bridal party)

Bride (escorted by her father)
