Who walked you down the aisle?

Question

I'm considering having both of my parents walk me down the aisle. I'm Presbyterian. Is that acceptable? Who walked you?

Answer 1

My mother walked me down the aisle.

I think it is nice if both of your parents walk you down the aisle. Both of them raised you and both of them should have the honor of giving you away. I truly felt that my mother deserved that honor - that is why I asked her to do it.  

Answer 2

My husband and I walked up the aisle together, with our attendants walking in as couples before us.

It's fine to have both parents do it - but make sure the pews can be pushed aside to make more centre aisle room.

Answer 3

My husband and I walked hand in hand to the minister. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

Answer 4

I actually refused to let my father walk me down the isle. So my older brother did it!

Its your wedding day, do what you want! Nothing says that you can't have both parents walk you down the isle.

Good luck!

Answer 5

My mom walked me down the aisle.  My dad didn't even attend the wedding, but I would have had her do it either way.  She said it was an honor for her to do it.  I think if you want both of your parents to walk you that would be just fine.  It is totally up to you and you should do whatever makes you happy.

Answer 6

Hey!

Whoever you want to walk you down the aisle is acceptable, it's your wedding, your the bride. Both parents is fine (as long as they get along).

My dad walked me down the aisle

Answer 7

there are no laws as to who walks you down!!!

if you want mom and dad to, THEN DO IT!

it's your wedding!@!!

Answer 8

My dad is going to walk me down the aisle.  But if you want both parents, I think it is perfectly fine.  You do what makes you happy.  

Answer 9

My father walked me. My mother was already deceased and even if she had not been I think she would have preferred to be seated by an usher in her own "The Seating of the Bride's Mother" moment anyway rather than walking with me. Plus my parents were divorced so I think they would both have objected to doing it together and giving my mom her special moment would have probably been my compromise.

I think it is fine for both parents to do it though and saw it once at a wedding several years ago and thought it was lovely.

You might ask your mother if she would like to do it or if she has pictured being walked down the aisle -- maybe by your brother if you have one and he might be an usher -- in her own special moment which traditionally is right after your husband's parents are seated and before the processional.

Answer 10

My dad and my brother. My dad broke his hip in Decemeber so he has a really hard time walking. So my brother pushed him down the aisle in his wheel chair. I held his hand.  If my mom was still a live it would have been her and my dad. She past away a little over 8 years ago.
