Processional order help

Nova, on April 1, 2022 at 4:09 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 4
Hello! I was speaking with our officiant and with him being my FH's maternal grandpa he wanted to know more about how the processional will go. I've got it nearly finished (even with the blended grandparents and his parents), but I've hit a road block. Traditionally, the mother of the bride is the final family member to be walked out before the wedding party members. Should I have my stepmother walked out first, then have my mother walked out last before the wedding party? Or should it be the other way around? For more information, my dad will be walking me down the aisle. My mother will be attending alone or with a friend (she is in a relationship but he will not be attending). My mother will never agree to walk alongside my stepmother so I can't use this option. Help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

    Do you have siblings in the wedding party? One of them could escort your mom. It's probably optional for your stepmom to walk at all, that depends on how close you are/how involved she is with the family.

    Your mom would be the last seated, traditionally. Ultimately, it’s up to you.

    Your father should seat your stepmother because they are married and then he should go back to where you are and then whoever your mom wants to seat her (typically if she has a son/ son- in-law/ brother/etc..) should seat her. Your mother should be the last one to be seated out of everyone.

    My plan is to have my dad walk my step mom to her seat, then come back and join me, then my 15 year old son will walk with my mom to her seat and again come back to join me (both my dad and my son are walking me down the aisle).
