I'm thinking of having my brother walk my mom down the aisle, and the best man walk with FMIL.
I think my BIL will walk my mom down the aisle. Hes also a groomsmen so he'll walk her down then get in line with the rest of em. :)
My FI walked my mom down the aisle for my sister/BIL's wedding
I'm sure my BIL will walk with her. I hadn't really thought about this yet!!
I didn't think about that until the DAY OF the wedding (I felt so bad). My brother walked my mom down the aisle, and I think it turned out ok.
Luckily my mom's husband can walk her down the aisle... my step-dad gets a job! If you have a brother, or she has a brother, or there are any grandfathers, that would be nice. Or you can REALLY let her have her "moment" and walk herself down the aisle if she'd be into something like that.
@krissybee - I love the idea of having my FI walk my mom down.....we've already paired all the groomsmen up with bridesmaids (we have equal numbers of both) and I don't have any brothers. My dad is walking me down, so my FI and my mom are the only two that aren't paired up. That would be really sweet! I hope she likes the idea....
@farmersdaughter- that would be very sweet, i say ask her what she thinks :) Let us know what the final decision is :)
i definitely will =) i'm in a tough spot because my mom wants to walk me down the aisle, which is common i think in some areas/traditions, but sort of unheard of in our circles...i love the tradition of being given away by my father, and i'm much closer to him than i am to her. i want to find an alternative that will make her feel special/honored, and she loves my FI so i think this just work and keep EVERYONE happy. i'll let yall know what she says!
I think I'm going to have my mom walk with my dad and me down the aisle. She played the biggest part in raising me so she is really the one who should be there giving me away!
FI is walking his mom down the aisle and then my brother who is also a groomsman is going to walk my mom down the aisle.
I'm having my two nephews walk down with my mom and FMIL, and my future stepson as the ring bearer. We're not having kids at the wedding other than these three, so the only way I could have them was to involve them in the ceremony, we're sneaky like that ;)
FH and I are debating him having his mother walk him down the aisle, in which case FFIL would walk my mom. This would work out great since my brother will be with the groomsmen.
Like @nevjcu, I'm planning on both parents walking me down the aisle...but I REALLY like @bakerella's idea of having my nephew to walk her down the aisle! My nephew is 11, so he's "too old" to be our ringbearer (& we're debating on whether we'll even have rings!), so this would be a GREAT way to get him involved.
My brother will walk my mom down the aisle :) yay for a job for the little bro!
my bro is also walking my mom down, with my grandmother..or he can double back and walk gma down seperately if she wants.
My brother walked my Mom down the aisle and my BIL walked my MIL down the aisle.
My mom discovered the Jewish tradition of having both parents walk the bride down the aisle and just inserted herself there :)
We're going to ask my cousin to walk my mother down the aisle...I would suggest some male family member who is close(ish) to your mom
Our processional will go as follows: Usher1 seats my grandma, Usher 2 seats mr. Paris' grandma, then my mom and FFIL, then Mr Paris and his mother, then our 3 bridesmaids/groomsmen combos (all of our bros + sisters + their SOs), the me and my dad!
@ribbons - ha my mom too! Well, she discovered the tradition and is trying to insist that we do it (we're Catholic, not Jewish.) I'm not the type who grew up dreaming of my wedding at ALL, but the one thing that I DID always imagine (probably after watching "Father of the Bride" with my Dad as a little girl) was being walked down the aisle and given away by my Father. I'm struggling with it - do I go with the ONE thing I've always imagined my wedding to look like, and hurt my mom's feelings? Or do I just do what she wants to avoid drama? (She is a major drama queen.) *Sigh*
I will be walking my mom down, well she will be walking me. My dad is not in the picture and she is my everything and I can't even begin to show her how much I appreciate all she has given me, so this is one way I am trying.
I'm thinking of having my parents both walk me down the aisle...
My dad walked my mom down the aisle, then took a side aisle to come back and walk me down. My husband walked his mom down the aisle, with his stepdad following behind.
What I have always seen is before the processional starts the groom walks in his mom with dad following.. hugs then they sit... then groom walks in brides mom hugs and sits then takes his place at the front... then processional begins.
Unfortunately me & my mom aren't close at all & she didn't help me with the wedding, so I'm not sure who will be walking her down the aisle...she'll probably just go sit down like the rest of the guests.
Well though it's not the traditional thing to do, my dad is walking my mom. You see when my parents get to the top of the church before he seats her they will light memory candles for my grandparents as all but one of my grandparents is dead. My brother will light the remaining candle. Then my mom will be seated and dad will return to the back of the church to walk me. My grandmother is being walked by my brother. My fiance's grandmother will be walked by the best man. And fiance's mother will be walked by his brother.
I'm curious, how did your mom like the idea of your FI walking her down the aisle?
My brother walked my grandmother and then my now husband walked my mom down the isle and then took his place. I had never seen it done before and SO many people commented on how cute they thought it was!
My mom is walking ME down the isle :). My wedding is pretty non-traditional & we MIGHT do the awesome youtube/the office wedding dance!
I like the idea of my parents walking together to show their solidarity. Unfortunately my SO's parents are divorced, and the church has two aisles, so I'll need to get creative! The idea of having the groom walk one of the mothers is a really good one, actually...
My FI will walk my mom down the aisle. I have also seen weddings where the FI walks his mother down the aisle, and FFIL walks the bride's mother, but I think that arrangement is a little weird.
My brother will probably walk my mom and my grandmother. My FI will probably walk his mom down the aisle. It works out pretty well since I'm having my dad and my grandfather walk me down the aisle. My grandfather has never had the chance with his own daughters and he has helped raise me so I figured why not... you could also aways have a brother of hers o if you decide to have kids in the wedding have them walk her down the aisle.
my 12 year old little brother is walking my mom and grandma! so cute! :)
Future mother in law and my mom will walk down together!! Awww they are just such awesome ladies, i'm excited!!

My dad is walking me down the aisle, and my FMIL and FFIL will walk down together. Who does my mom walk down with? What are you doing?
