Daughter walk mother down the aisle??

I don't think that's silly or weird. I think that would be very sweet. I've seen people post on WW about their sons/brothers/uncles/mothers walking them down the isle. I don't see why your daughter couldn't walk you down the isle. If that's what you want to do and your daughter is comfortable with it, I say go for it!

Thank you rj

I think it's awesome and reinforces that she is a part of the new family, and is happy for you. I was thinking about having my daughter give me away. FH has been a part of her life since she was 7, and she's now 18.

Both my parents walked me in. To me it's about the symbol of two families becoming one. She's your family, she should be included in the union IMO.

I think it sounds perfect if that what you want.

Moco2016, the escorting of the bride down the aisle is a nod to a centuries old tradition in which a father "owned" his daughter and was literally giving her away to a young man. We don't even like the idea of that anymore, so we've taken the ownership bite out of it and kept the love part in. If a woman wants her mother, daughter, son, grandfather, brother, stepfather....whoever...to assume that position, go for it. What it says to the groom (and the guests) is, "You had better treat this woman with all of the respect in the world because I loved her before you even knew her". The mere visual of the pairing says all that needs to be said.

I actually think it perfect. It's been you and her all these years, who better to hand you over?

So awesome that I'm not alone. It's a great idea. My son is walking me down the aisle. He is 7 years old and it's been just me and him since he was 1. My step dad and dad do not get along very well and I'm close with both of them. I know they will both be hurt if I picked one or the other. Plus it is making a statement that my son is fully accepting my FH into our lives! ♡ go for it, it will be a great memory for both of you!

Thanks so much for your input! Makes me feel a lot better

I love this idea and think you should definitely have your daughter walk you down!

It is not silly at all. My daughter is actually my MOH and my son's are walking me down tha aisle. I love the idea

I love your idea and what it represents!

I think it's perfect!

I think that sounds beautiful!

I am getting married in 6mos. (2nd marriage) and my 13yr old daughter will be walking me down the aisle and then will stand as my maid of honor. She is my best friend. She actually said "Momma, I was hoping you would ask me". God had blessed me with more than I deserve when it comes to her. So, I say go for it.

There is nothing silly about doing what you feel in your heart is right. My daughter (10) will be walking me down the aisle. I am still very close with my dad but explained to him that this is a big step for her, she is welcoming this man into our lives and I want her to be the one to say, “here is my mom and you are now a part of our family.”

I don’t think it’s silly at all! I’ve been a single mom since I was 19 so it’s also been me and my daughter for a long time. I’m getting married in September and my now 23 year old daughter will be standing up with me. I haven’t decided if she will walk with me down the aisle or if I just walk alone. I say do what you want and enjoy your day!

I love this. My daughter will be 15 when me and FH get married in June. I am having her walk me down the aisle and then stand up there with me as a maid of honor. It’s always been her and I since she was 1yr old so I feel it symbolizes that she’s accepting my FH in the family. My parents are both huge parts of our lives and my dad loves the idea of her doing this. Everyone I have told about this is happy that she is doing it.
