Who should my stepmom walk with?

No , on March 23, 2018 at 2:11 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 13

Hey everyone!

I'm really stumped on this one, and thankfully have time to figure it out. I really want all of our parents to walk down the aisle, but I'm not sure how that should be paired. Our ceremony isn't super traditional so I'm open to whatever ideas you all have.

I'm thinking his mom and dad would walk together first

Then my mom and step dad

My stepmom and ?? - I have no idea who should go here I really want her to feel important and to not walk alone, but she's not walking me down the aisle and I really don't have anyone else to walk her....what about his best man? They don't know each other but it's his brother and he could walk her to her seat?

    His brother/BM would be fine. Do you have a brother, nephew, cousin that could do it?

    Or have your dad walk her down before FH's parents then circle back to walk you.

    My only brother is a GM and the cousins coming I'm not like super close with so it'd be a little weird. The idea of my dad walking her down actually isn't bad, something to consider Smiley smile Thanks!

    Well being that my step moms dad is walking down and my grandmother passed away she is walking with him. However she could walk with her parents if you are having them walk together. I dont know how close everyone is

    Why not the groom? Or a groomsman (groomsmen?)?
    In my sister's wedding, her FH walked one of our grandmother's down the aisle. An uncle walked the other grandmother down. Another uncle walked my mother down. And his wife just....sat down without anyone.

    Probably not the groom, I know that if anyone gets to do that it's his mom. She'd be heartbroken if someone else walked with her son down the aisle. I'm def. leaning towards having his BM do it, they just don't know each other at all...so idk how weird she'd feel

    I have a step brother, so he walked my step mom. I don't think it necessarily matters that she doesn't know the BM. He's in a position of honor, so she should feel honored being escorted by him. You can check in with her though to see if there is another person/family member that she'd rater walk with.

    I think your brother would be perfect! He can walk her down the aisle then take his place with the other groomsmen!

    My husband’s parents are separated so we had one of our ushers who is a childhood friends of his walk his mom in!

    I dont have anyone to walk with my step-mother. So, my father will walk my step-mother & then walk back down to me. We're also thinking we may have FH walk 1/2 way down on one side of the aisle (he's meeting me 1/2 way), while my father walks on the other side back out to me.

    Both of our parents are divorced and luckily both of our dads are not remarried otherwise we would be having such a hard time figuring out the processional! We will have our dad's SOs already sitting down, then our moms will be escorted/sat down by their husbands/our step dads. My FH will walk down with his dad, then my MOH and his BM, and then me!

    We didn't have ushers, No parents and family members were escorted down the aisle to their seats. Our family and guests all entered the ceremony room together. Then my H and I held hands and walked down the aisle together to the altar.
