Escorts for Widowed Grandparents in Processional

Shayna, on January 22, 2020 at 2:12 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 4
In my fiancé’s family they include grandparents in the processional, which I am definitely good with doing. The issue I’m running in to is that we both have a set of divorced and widowed grandparents.
My maternal grandparents divorced and both remarried, but my my grandfather was widowed about a year ago. My paternal grandparents are both deceased.
My fiancé’s paternal grandparents divorced and both remarried, his grandmother was widowed some time ago. His maternal grandfather was windowed a couple years when his grandmother passed. Obviously those that are remarried can escort each other, and we have a male usher that could escort his grandmother. What I need advise on is how to have our widowed grandfathers go down the isle. Should they walk by themselves, by themselves side by side, or could I do female ushers for them? I know that’s not necessarily traditional, but we’ve got a mix of traditional and non traditional going on anyway so why not? LolThank you all in advance for any advise!

    Do you have family that could walk them? A sister, aunt, or cousin?

    Who is walking your mom? My dad walked with me so vmy brother escorted her. Maybe your grandfather and mom could walk together if your dad is escorting you. Or if you have a sister that isn't in the wedding maybe she could walk with him. What about a female cousin that is also his grandchild? There are honestly a ton of options.

    The widowed grandfathers could walk down together or could walk both of your mothers down the aisle if that works? My dad walked my grandma (his mom) down the aisle since she is the only grandparent I have left. My husband's grandparents missed the memo of their "entrance" but his grandmas sat together.
