Doing or Ditching: Bride standing on the left side?

We never even thought of switching this up so we are keeping it! It's interesting how all those traditions started.

Definitely keeping. Hopefully my right side of my face is a good one angle

Doing, but to the left of the officiant, at the centre of the circle of our friends and family.

I never thought about this but yes the girls are on the left side

I didn't even know this was still a tradition...I don't think we will actively ditch or do this. It'll more depend on the layout of space once all the final details are squared away (A.K.A whether the weather is poop and we have to move inside)

Wow didn’t even think about this! But I’m thinking standing on the left , as it seems like the norm!

We chose sides based on where the ramp was, it left a nice spot for my dress to lay.

I hadn't even thought about this! With both brides, I think we'll just flip a coin or something

I think we will stick with it too, my FH feels it would look odd if we changed things up.

Haven't given any thought to this at all. We are both brides. We will stand where we end up

Doing this one, just because it's what everyone expects to see, so if we changed it, I think it would look a bit odd.

Doing this one! Didn't know it was tradition, this way just looks right to me

I didn't know this was a thing, but we'll likely do this.

We will, just to keep it easy. I think everyone naturally goes that way so why not?

Ummm. Tbh we don’t know and won’t figure it out until the rehearsal

We will be following suit, only because I can't really picture it the other way, also no reason not too stand on the left.

Wow I had no idea this was a thing. But so interesting that the bride stands on the left just in case he needs to whip out the sword!

I'm just going to stand wherever my priest tells me to.

Haha i wasn't actually even aware that this was a thing that was needed / tradition. Especially with that being the reason (we do swordfighting ) we'll keep that (but we probably did it anyways since that's what you always see)
We don't have sides for the guests though

Doing! Just because I think it's standard more than anything? I think???? Is there something to this?

I didnt know this was a tradition, but yes, this is how we will stand

We have not gotten this far into the planning yet. I am sure when it comes down to the rehearsal with our Officiant he will let us know!

I'll stand on the left- it is what I am used to seeing!

View quoted message Definitely doing! And for the same reason. My FH couldn't imagine being up there on the wrong side!

We'll be doing this because we both like the reasoning behind it of having the bride on the left so the groom's sword hand is ready. He's a big fantasy fan and I'm a Disney/fairytale fan.

We are unintentionally doing this...its habit for me to always be on that side of him...on the couch, in bed, etc

We did this. Didn’t know it was a tradition, it’s just how we stood during rehearsal.

Doing this one 😊

Doing. In my head this is the way it's been, so this is how we're having it.

I didn't know this was a thing, but now that I think about it, all the wedding photos I see are the bride on the left (with opposite-sex weddings).

I kind of want to do the opposite of the tradition, since my FH and I are both left-handed so his sword arm is technically his left lol.

I did not know this was a thing and I have no idea...

I think I will actually do this one. My right side is my “good side” anyways haha

I didn't know there were "proper" sides, but it turned out we stuck with tradition without even knowing we were doing it!
