Processional dilemma

Sasha, on August 22, 2017 at 09:40 Posted in Wedding ceremony 0 14
I've been thinking about what I should do for the processional and wanted some ideas or opinions on it if you can.
Our wedding party consists of 2 best men and for my side I have one maid of honour and one "man of honour". I don't know what to do in regards to them walking down the aisle as typical bridal parties are guys on the groom's side and girls on the brides side. Should the best men not walk down the aisle and just go down at the same time as the groom and I would just have my MOHs walk down either together or single file? Or should they all walk down single file?
I know usually they link arms but I don't want to make my guy friends link arms walking down the aisle haha.

    For mine we had the guys walk single file in front of the groom than he walked down with his parents. When we walked out the bridesmaids and groomsmen simply walked side by side. There's definitely no need to link arms, remember it's YOUR wedding, do whatever you please.

    That sounds like a great idea! Walking his mother down the aisle is really sweet Smiley smile

    Ask the wedding party what they think!

    My FH doesn't like crowds or being the centre of attention, so he has opted to have his men walk with him into the ceremony, down the aisle, so that they are with him the whole time that he's waiting for me. He will walk his mom down with the men following in behind them.

    If you have mom's or grandma's involved in the ceremony, maybe the guys could walk the mom's up and then the MOH and best man could walk together?

    What if your 2 best men were at the front with your fiancé, and you MOH and man of honour linked arms and walked ahead of you? Would that work?

    Everyone has such wonderful ideas. Definitely ask your wedding party what they feel comfortable with doing and go from there.

    I was going to do this at first. But at rehearsal we decided all the men will be waiting with the groom, then my bridesmaids walked single file down the aisle before me, with my maid of honour being last, then my flower girl, then me

    You can do whatever! Don't overthink it Smiley smile

    You could have the 2 best men enter single file behind the groom and wait up front while your maid and man of honor process down the aisle together or individually.

    Or you could have all 4 of them process down the aisle. They could walk in pairs without linking arms, or they could all walk individually!

    I think I'd have the 2 best men enter with the groom, and have the man and maid of honor process in together. Then for the recessional of the the best men walks out the maid of honor, and the man of honor and other best man walk out together as a pair (without linking arms).

    I think Erin is spot on, talk to the "man of honor" and see what he would be most comfortable with, if you are all a silly fun group of people, they could link arms and be funny about it, or just beside each other is fine too I think!

    I think they could just walk in pairs without linking arms or go single file. That would be easiest in my opinion.
