Probably an obvious one but...

My MOH will take mine as I took hers when I was her CB. ( I actually forgot and she threw it at me but that's another story!)

I think the BM and the rest of the bridal party would sit with the congregation or they could stand to the side, I guess it depends on the ceremony. It'll all get sorted at the rehearsal though I'm sure.

L'll pass it to my bridesmaid, one will have my engagement ring to hold too.

As far as i know, the best man and maid of honour stand to the side, and the others sit down. my sister (MOH) will be taking my bouquet and my engagement ring just before my grandad presents my hand to the vicar, and then after the ceremony, before we sign the register, she will give my engagement ring back to my OH for him to put back on my finger xx

Forgive me for being naive, but does that mean that you're not supposed to wear your ER for the ceremony? I didn't realise it was the norm to take it off.?

I thought you put ER on other hand?

I'm only having a FG so will probably pass my flowers to my mum. Or my dad lol as he will be next to me.

I don't think he's 'handing me over' to anyone.

With regards to the bridesmaids and ushers standing up during the ceremony, it really depends on what kind of service you are having as church ceremonies differ greatly to civil (in church services the MOH and Bman sometimes have to do all sorts of stuff on the alter with the bride and groom). The best thing to do is ask the priest or registrar what they should do.

With regards to rings, it's all down to personal preference. Traditionally most brides have a 'finger free of rings', so as the others have suggested, wear the engagement ring on your other hand or give it a bridesmaid to look after (this is a good, important job for placating any bridesmaid who is feeling a bit left out!)
