Doing or Ditching: Father escorting you down the aisle?

Lynnie, on April 1, 2019 at 09:05

Posted in Wedding ceremony 52

Are you sticking with the tradition of having the bride's father walk her down the aisle? Are you mixing up this tradition to include another family member? Or are you completely changing it up and walking down the aisle solo? Will your father walk you down the aisle or are you ditching this...

Will your father walk you down the aisle or are you ditching this tradition?

    I’m indifferent to it but my FH and my dad are close and he’s said it’s important to him, so meh...t’s a thing.

    Doing. It's not for the traditional reasons. I definitely don't view it as being given away. I also really don't want to walk down alone, not a chance!! And my fiance and I are waiting till I walk down the aisle to see each other.

    My dad will be walking me down the aisle! I am an only child and my mom will not be making it to the wedding, so it will just be dad and I Smiley smile

    Nope! It’ll be me by myself. I didn’t really want to be walked down the isle.

    For sure doing! Always imagined having my dad and my stepdad both walk me down the aisle but my stepdad has since passed so he will be there in spirit. Smiley heart

    Doing! i’m so excited to share this moment with my dad. at one point my mom expressed that she would like to join and walk with us (which would have been super weird considering theyre divorced and can’t stand each other) but i thought it was important to have that moment with just my dad. i’m sure it’s a moment he’s been looking forward to since the day i was born

    Both my parents are going to walk me down. This was really important to me as my mom primarily raised me by herself, and my stepdad has been huge in my life since dating my mom.

    I want my dad to escort me down the isle. I know my mom will want to but I don't want that, its not that not close with her but it will be really hard to as isle is small and I want to be able to not feel overwhelmed

    This is one tradition I'd love to do but my dad passed away a few years ago... I'll carry his picture in my bouquet instead and probably walk down the aisle alone. Unless my mom really wants to walk me down - that's fine too!
