Walking down the aisle

You and your partner could walk down the aisle together? It's what I initially wanted to do, but my dad was so excited when I got engaged that he's going to be walking with me (not giving me away, though, I don't belong to anyone!).

My brother is walking me down the aisle as my dad also isn't in my life, but I have been to weddings where the bride has walked down the aisle alone which was really emotional and empowering! How about having your maid of honour walk with you, or a close friend?

I think this would be a nice touch. The bridesmaids go first and then you enter the room or start of the isle and you stop and your partner can turn for their "look" and then walk down the isle to collect you and you both walk down together.

Or you walk halfway down and your partner walks to the middle to meet you.

My dad isn’t in my life either. I did at first think about having my oldest son, who will be 5 by then, walk me down the aisle, but then thought that would be a bit much for him. So I’ll be walking on my own. I only have one bridesmaid too, so it really will be a short procession. x

Do you have a brother, a son, a male cousin who you are close with, lastly a male bestfriend? Lots of alternative choices for you to decide.

My father died several years ago. We'd originally planned that my uncle would walk me down the aisle, but due to Covid, we had to drop that plan, so my OH and I walked down the aisle together. I'm so happy that we did that, and with hindsight, would have chosen that option even without Covid - it just felt so right!

Hi, I'm not that close with my dad or my brother but my sister and I are best friends so she is going to walk with me! If I didn't have her I would walk with my partner or give myself away! ?

I'm walking down the aisle by myself. I don't feel like anyone should 'give me away' because I'm giving myself to him. I feel I've been pretty in charge of all the decisions my life and I don't have a dad, I'm not close with my mum and I don't feel like my brothers were that father figure and I'm excited to start my new family with me and my other half. Be that strong confident women if you want to

Yes, I wasn't thinking along the lines of being 'given away' because I think that's rubbish, but more in terms of having some support on the walk!

Just walk down the aisle on your own. Just focus on on your spouse-to-be instead of who might be on your arm. You give yourself to your partner. Nowone else is doing it for you.

Thats a beautiful idea xxxx My dad and grandad passed away, but my 15yr old son is walking me down the aisle

It's indeed a great idea and one that some dreams to do, I just wonder how I have not seen this kind of setup often.

We are making our wedding about us, so not really following many traditions, my son is 15 and taller than me so wont look strange {im 5ft 2} but it's going to be something special that both of us will share. He's even going to get ready with my other half then come back once I'm ready as he wants a surprise like my dad would have had xxx

I'm marrying for the second time, first time for my finance.

My two adult daughters are my BM's and the three of us will be walking down the aisle together.

We were a very close trio as their dad (my first husband) bailed when they were really little. We're still really close even though they are in their late 20s now, and they love my fiance!

I just hope we can all fit side by side!!!!!!!!!!!
