Figuring out the line up!

Shauna, on September 28, 2019 at 2:37 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 6
My wedding is less than a week away and I'm currently looking at how I will instruct everyone at the rehearsal. Traditionally I know both groomsmen and bridesmaids walk down the isle together. We want to have the groomsmen standing there next to my FH right away and the girls walk themselves down the isle.


Should I have them stand there prior to the officiant walking down the isle? Should they walk down the isle at all or avoid it and come from the side? Has anyone else done it this way?


How I pictured it was the prelude starts and people are being sat. Then once it gets closer to the start time; the groomsmen walk in from the side all lined up in order. My husband will then walk down with his mom/dad. Then the girls will walk down and then I will with my parents. At the end; the groomsmen will escort the ladies out of the chapel. How does this sound?

    Personally I think you can do whatever you want. So many traditions have gone out the window and this day should be about you and your FH so however you want to do things is how you should do it. I’ve seen it done so many different ways lately and I don’t think anything of it. In the end you both say “I do”, so do what makes you happy. 😊

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen the groomsmen walk down the aisle with the bridesmaids, I’ve always seen them enter from the side at the front. That’s what we did.

    Your plan isn’t a bad idea. I’ve only been to weddings where the bridesmaids & groomsmen walk down the aisle. But you might’ve put a new idea in my head 🤔 lol

    I’ve seen it both ways. You can do it how you want. Your plan sounds good!
