    Does anyone know a good formula, per say, for figuring out how long it takes a wedding party to walk down the aisle?

    I know it depends on the size of the wedding party and length of the aisle, but how have you all done it or plan to do it?

    We winged it, LOL! We figured out the order of who was going after one another at the rehearsal dinner, and then on the day just went with it. One of my BM's was singing me down the aisle, but the plan was that if (really, when) I got to the front of the aisle with my dad and was with DH, she would just keep singing to the end of the song and we'd just enjoy the moment until she was done. It worked out really well actually, although I honestly can't remember how far into the song she was by the time I got up there. Thank god we have a video coming, LOL!

    I think you can figure it out by watching similar processions (youtube is great for this).

     

    HERE was my procession.

    Have you measured your aisle or know how long it is?  You could just measure it out in your yard or hallway and walk it and time it.

    I actually figured this out since I'm super anal and I NEED to make my entrance at a specific point in our processional song. I figured out how long into our song "my part" is and divided it by how many pairs we will have walking. I know it sounds crazy and I'll bet money that it will not go this smoothly the day of but god dammit, I will try! Each pair will have roughly 25 seconds to make it down the not very long aisle. If it doesn't work out it wont be the end of the world but hopefully we're close! 

    Am I crazy? lol
