Both parents walk me down the aisle?

No, it won't look like too much!I did it and my mom appreciated it!

Go for it! It's your wedding and you've gotta do what's good for you! I bet your mom will really appreciate that.

I think you do what you want. I have a lot of brides/grooms who have both parents walk them down the aisle. You do what works for you and your relationship.

I'm planning on walking with both parents! They both raised me-- it doesn't make sense for one to just be sitting all along and have the other one part of the procession.

I have a very similar situation with the relationships between me and my parents. I'm having both my parents walk me down the aisle.

I had both of mine. So did my sister. So do a lot of brides I know. I always thought having your father only, wasn't being fair. And people insisting that only a man can do it sounds sexist.

Go for it! Both of my parents walked me.

I'm having both parents walk me, not only because it's fairly common in Jewish families to do this, but also because I don't like the idea of being "given away." This is more like a recognition of where I came from and to honor my parents.

I actually have 3 people walking me. My father is walking me 6 rows then we'll hug and he'll pass my hand to my mothers, then she will walk me another 6 rows to my step dad who actually raised me along with her and he will do the final walking me down to meet with my FH. Seems like a lot but that was the only way I could incorporate all three of the people that raised and protected me prior to meeting my fiancé. I may also pass flowers to grandparents during the ceremony as tribute as I am leaving an empty space with flowers for my grandma who passed.

I had both my parents walk me down the aisle. I am very close with my mom and have a great relationship with both of my parents (they are still married).

Annakay511 I know the post is about your parents but my goodness you look stunning. That dress fits you beautifully. You look really happy.

It is actually a Jewish custom to have both of the bride's parents walk the bride down, and both of the groom's parents walk the groom down--and people from other religions have been borrowing that custom. It makes it more an acknowledgement of your origins, and involves less sexism than having just the bride escorted by just her father.

I had both. I loved it. It meant so much too have them both there with me.

Is from the back. It's the best I have on my phone.

Both parents are walking me down the aisle. As others have said, it is Jewish tradition to have both parents walk the bride down the aisle. We are having an interfaith wedding and this is one of the Jewish traditions that we are incorporating.

I'm having both do it for similar reasons. I don't think it would be too much.

I'm glad there are so many people that do this! Now I just need to figure out when to ask her/tell her. I know she'll start to cry when I ask her lol.

My parents are divorced and my mom is definitely the one who raised me. I'm having them both walk me since I'm pretty sure that if I told my dad I would rather have just my mom, he might not show. The father/daughter dance is still his, but he has to share the walking me to the altar part.
