Need answer and reasoning behind answer re: matron of honor

Victoria, on January 27, 2022 at 1:24 AM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 9
If the Matron of Honor is married to one of the groomsmen (not the best man) who should she walk the aisle with and why? I should note that there are two extra guys on the grooms side. Two best men.

    Traditional I believe the matron of honor is suppose to walk down with the best man. I don't think it matters if she is married to that man. If there are two best men, there could be a maid of honor and a matron of honor.

    There are no hard and fast rules here. You can have her walk with whomever you’d like.

    I’ve seen it both ways; A) you walk down with whomever you’re lined up with, or B) you have people you want to walk down together, walk down together. My friend a bridesmaid in a wedding with her fiancé who was the best man. I’m not sure how they organized it (I was not invited lol) but she got to walk down the aisle with her fiancé even tho she wasn’t the MOH. I’d say, do whatever works for you!

    Honestly, I've seen the matron walk down the aisle alone before the bride (as the best man or men walk into the ceremony with the officiant and groom) but in the standing order, she stands next to the bride like the best man/men stand next to the group. During the recessional, she walks out with the best man/men. However, as previous posters have said, there is no hard and fast rule, so it's really up to you!

    I’ve seen it done several ways, so it’s really however you want to do it. My fiancé and I have several couples in our wedding party and to make it so they don’t have to walk down with someone they’re not in a relationship with, they are all just walking down by themselves.

    I’ve never personally seen the maid of honor walk in with an escort but she does walk out with the best man, regardless of who is related. It’s a 5 second walk and no one will assume you are married to someone else.

    There are no rules to the walking bit. I have seen where people in the wedding party walk alone during the recessional but "weave" back and forth. So starting with MOH then best man, then bridesmaid, groomsman, bridesmaid and so on. I kind of think that looks cool.
