Ideas for walking down the aisle when you are two brides?

Katrin, on January 2, 2019 at 11:56 Posted in Wedding ceremony 0 13

Hi there! Very excited about my wedding in the Fall, but trying to figure out how we should set up the aisle and the order. We are both female brides so it may be a little different, and we don't want anyone to be waiting at the alter, like the groom would typically do. I am thinking maybe she would walk down the aisle with her mom (she will be wearing a suit, if that makes a difference) and I will walk down with both my parents afterwards? Does anyone have any ideas?

    Your idea for the wedding walk sounds great. It was the same as us planned in that way from the beginning.

    There were 4 flower kids in total along with 4 wedding party. The order we went was and something you can do too:

    2 flower kids

    Husband's side wedding party

    My side wedding party

    Husband walked down by his Aunt

    Myself by my mom.

    I like the "T" idea. I think it would work best, and it gives you guys a really cute moment when you see each other. And then no one is 'waiting' or 'first'/'last'...

    The last wedding I was in had two grooms, and this is what they did. It was really beautiful, the used that moment as their first look and it made for a very emotional and sweet procession

    What if you came in to the ceremony like a T? Then you would each have the chance for first look and then meet and walk the rest of the way together!

    How about walking down the aisle together?

    I also like the idea of walking down the aisle with or without parents, towards each other but agree that it will force your guests to divide their attention, and may not be the best where photography logistics are concerned.

    The way you suggested sounds great!
    that's how a friend did it (with the grooms being apart of the processional and walking first)
    if you are doing a first look. you could also walk down the aisle together and parents walk together.

    Depending on the set up of your ceremony space, maybe one of you can walk from the front, one from the rear and then you could meet in the middle and walk the rest of the way together?

    I think they way you have it is perfect! That's for sure what I would do! You can have both of your bridal parties come down first, your FH with her mom and then yourself with your parents!

    I wouldn't suggest both going down the aisle at the same time, if one goes first then you can still have that "first moment" of when you see each other going down the aisle, if that's what you're going for!

    I think the best way is to have your fiancee walk first and then you. She will have to wait a little bit, but she wouldn't be waiting the whole processional.

    You could also have the parents walk before and then both of you walk down together. It's becoming more common to do this too IMO.

    The only idea I have that would avoid either of you waiting at the alter would be to have you walk down the aisle at the same time from two different directions rather than one line down the middle. Of course that would also mean you need at least two photographers and then your guests will have to pick and chose who they look at... Not sure there would be any other way to have it so that nobody is at the alter otherwise.

    Of course if you have wedding party have them go down first and then you would just have to pick which one of you goes down the aisle first but then that one will be technically waiting at the end of the aisle...
