i have to walk alone...

View Quoted Comment

Kaitlin sorry to hear about your dad. I already planned to add the charms for him and save him a seat as well. I have a son, but FH said he already has something special planned for my son to do, so walking me down is out. I will walk alone and have FH meet me halfway. Thanks for the input.

Thank you dear

View Quoted Comment Thanks, I'm sorry for your loss as well... It's been almost 10 years for me and it still kills planning my wedding without my dad. I can only imagine it being fresh.. Keep your head up, I'm sure your wedding will be spectacular!

View Quoted Comment Thank you Kaitlin and yes, I do get very sad when I think about that part among other things.

Nicole, thank you so much

View Quoted Comment Your very welcome

I just went to a wedding where the bride had a dad and stepdad present and she walked alone.

I am sorry for your loss.

My heart breaks for your loss. If you feel comfortable walking alone, that is an option. Otherwise I would consider your future FIL, depending on your relationship with him.

Bless your heart dear. My father is not in the picture, and my beautiful mother passed from a short battle with Cancer earlier this year - I, too, am walking alone down the aisle. It makes me tear up every time I think about it too, and many people have offered to walk me. I don't know about you, but I'd rather walk alone given the circumstances, than walk beside someone who just doesn't mean as much to me. (I really don't want to sound mean or insensitive...) But no one could replace my beautiful mother, who was supposed to be there. God bless, take care.

8BitBek thank you so much. I have decided to walk it alone and have my FH meet me half way. No one can fill my Dad's shoes.

Desiree, OMG baby girl. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. I almost lost my mom to cancer as well. I don't wish that on my worst enemy to see a loved on go through that fight. I too get emotional when thinking about my wedding day. We both feel the same exact way. I have made the decision to walk alone and maybe have my future husband meet me half way because I know I am going to break down and He is the only one that can get me through that moment. I will be adding charms on my bouquet with my father's pictures in them as well as saving him a seat. We are also releasing doves. I will be praying for you. This pain we feel is still so fresh and new. Sending you Love and Light.

I’m walking alone. 🙋🏽‍♀️ We also have lots of friends but we aren’t having a bridal party. My parents will walk together and FH parents will walk together. FH will walk out alone as well.

I just don’t get stuck on “a WAY” something is supposed to be. It’s OUR wedding! So we’re doing it our way and in a style that’s true to us and what we want.

Sexypoodle, I can respect that.

My dad is an absent father. My 10 year old nephew will walk me halfway and my mom will finish the rest. Your mom can walk you down, your sister and MOH can walk you down. It doesn't have to be a man. Your groom can walk with you or he can meet you halfway and you walk into your new life together. Or, you can walk alone and that's perfectly fine too. It won't be weird or creepy having to keep at an awkward pace with someone and all attention is SOLELY on you. But, my mom was more than honored to want to walk me down. It's not an obligation, it's a respect and honor.

I hope that through everything, you enjoy this day and let it be the happiest you've ever had. Sending you good energy as well, take care of you and yours my dear.

First, I am so sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences.

They have tiny picture frames that attach to your bouquet that you could put his picture in, I'll include some pictures as examples in ways you can honor him on your big day
