Need urgent answer - What order do BM's walk down the aisle?

I am getting married on Saturday and I haven't thought about what order the BM's will walk down the aisle.

I am having 4 BM's who will walk in in front of me. They are 2 and a half yrs, 11 yrs, 23 yrs and my daughter who is chief BM and is 20 yrs.

I was thinking about the 2 little ones holding hands and walking in first, then the youngest ones mum is my other BM so her next, then the chief BM. But my daughter thinks the chief BM usually goes first.

Does anyone know what order is usual?

There is no 'usual' order as far as I am aware. Just any way you want!

I've seen both ways but I'm having bridesmaids first , then a long pause then me - this way the bridesmaids have their moment and then I make my entrance! Good luck!

That is absolutely correct...although check that if you send in your youngest first that they wont be phased by the situation. Its a big ask for some youngsters to lead the procession in....Many will love it, others will not be happy and tears are best avoided.

I would be sending the little ones down first if I were you, otherwise they won't be seen behind the older bridesmaids!

My bridesmaids will be walking down the aisle with a page boy each in tow, followed by my maid of honour, then me.

If you are worried about the little ones getting nervous you could send in CBM with a small one then the other adult with the other little one, then you...

I was going to have four bridesmaids and they were going to go in this order.

Chrief Bridesmaid

Eldest bridesmaid

Youngest bridesmaid

Flowergirl

Me and my Dad

But the eldest bridesmaid never showed so it was the above minus her... worked really well. You get that wow factor then!!
