How will your groom get to the alter?

Nini, on August 20, 2016 at 1:58 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 29

So me and my honey were talking "wedding talk" and I asked him.. "how will he get to the alter?" My questions you all is... How will your FH get to the alter? I know hell be down there when you're walking down the aisle, but is he going to walk down the aisle with someone? will he just be down there waiting with his grooms men? Walk down with the pastor/officiant? What are your thoughts ladies?

    The word is altar, not alter...you don't want your groom getting to a place of change in character or composition. No, no, no. You want him to get to a place at which a ritual is conducted.

    Carry on.

    Mine will walk my mom and then his mom to their seats. Then he and the groomsman will come in from the side of the alter with the priest (they won't walk down the aisle at all)

    DH walked down the aisle with his mom and stepdad after his groomsmen, before the bridesmaids.

    We are walking down the aisle together. For the same reason as @elphaba - to symbolize us entering into the marriage together. The wedding I'm going to today, the groom is escorting his mom to her seat, then taking his place at the front of the aisle.

    For most of the weddings I have been to, he walks with the officiant, and they are the first ones to come in and signify the wedding is starting. Then the families who are going to be sitting in the front rows. Then the best man and maid of honor followed by the bridesmaids and groomsmen.

    Mine is most likely coming from a side entrance. The grooms room is to the right of the staircase Smiley smile

    I think he's going to walk my mom down the aisle. His stepmom will be with his dad while my mom is single.

    Most of mine come in with me, followed by the rest of his party. Sometimes he will escort his mom. In a traditional Jewish ceremony, both parents walk the groom (and the bride too....)
