Hi All!!!

My question today is:

Did you or do you plan to practice your walk during your wedding rehearsal?

I have 2 months until my big day and cannot decide if I will practice walking during the rehearsal!

I know many brides who did not practice their walk......and if I choose not to practice my walk; I don't want anyone to "fill in" for me!!!

What to do??? What to do???


NOTE: It just seems awkward to have another woman "fill-in" for me. ..... just how far does a "fill-in" go?? Do they practice standing at the altar with your Fiance also???....etc.

    I will probably walk also because I want to be in sync with the music playing.

    So my thought may be a little different but for me I kinda want that part to be a surprise for me. I know I want everyone else to walk down so we can make sure the song timing with their walking is correct but I am having saxophonist play so i figured that can be so hard lol but I want my FH when he sees me to be surprised because he has never seen it before.

    Is this a thing? I have never heard of it, lol!! We had a small rehearsal in our living room with just me and hubby and officiant because: Officiant had never done a wedding and my hubby was a first time groom, I needed to be CLEAR in how things were gonna go.

    First time I wed: We had a rehearsal and I walked down and back. No biggie.

    We aren't doing an actual rehearsal. We don't have a bridal party and FH and I are walking down together.

    Our ceremony will be at the top of a hill on land, so we are definitely having a rehearsal where I want the bridal party to have a good idea of how to walk through the field and where to stand. As for me, I will probably be practicing. However, we won't have any music to practice with.

    I have been told that the bride does not participate in the rehearsal. After reading the comments here, I will not be in the practice round and there will be no fill in. I want the butterflies when I walk down the isle towards my FH. I can practice my walk with headphones on my own for timing, or better yet in front of the mirror. Congrats to all you brides. It's your day.

    I plan on walking myself!

    I can see why people would do a proxy, but I need to see my FH the night before the wedding to calm some of my nerves!
