Keep or Skip: Father walking you down the aisle?

Keeping. It's important to my dad and I'm his only daughter.

Absolutely keeping this. It is important that my father walks me down the aisle and he would not have it any other way.

Keeping! I'm my dad's youngest daughter and the first one to get married so it's kind of a big deal lol. Walking down the aisle on my dad's arm to my FH is one of the things I'm most looking forward to.

I don't think I will have him walk me down the aisle. Our relationship isn't the best, although I love him and he has done a lot for me. Plus, no need to give me away. I am an adult and have been living with my FH since last year.

But it's totally fine if other people want to do it. I may consider it if he tells me it's important to him.

Keeping. I'm not considering it as him "giving me away" but I definitely want him to escort me down the aisle.

I'm leaning toward skipping. My parents got divorced when I was 6, and my Dad has been completely anti-marriage ever since. As long as I can remember, he has always called weddings "hangings". He's already sent us an email through our wedding website about our "hanging". I'm not sure I want someone with such negative feelings about marriage walking me into mine. Bad juju or something. BUT I still need to talk to him about it. He might care about it more than he lets on.

Might keep? I’m either walking myself or having both my parents walk me

No. My father did it in 1994. He doesn't need to this time. I will walk myself.

Skip! My dad was there both times I got married, but we've never had a really close relationship. My mom walked me down the aisle the first time I got married, and my son walked me down the aisle this time. My dad was probably disappointed, but he understood.

This is definitely something that means a lot to my dad. I'll be happy to have him with me too. I didn't think I'd be sentimental about these things, but I'm definitely getting there!

What is a little different is that we don't have an actual aisle. We are walking from the bus to guests who will be facing us.

Keeping! FH is looking forward to this part and wouldn't have it any other way.

Sort of keeping, both my mom and dad will walk me down!

Skip, won’t be walking down an aisle really

Im skipping for the main fact my father and i dont want anything to do with each other. But i planned from the start to have my 12 yr old son to give me away

Keep, I'm ready for this!

Keep = 1st wedding

2nd time around = SKip

Keep. I don't find this antiquated at all, you're not saying your father "owned" you (at least not anymore). But my dad is wonderful and I have no problem implying that he's been my biggest supporter, protector, and pillar of strength most of my life, and he's handing a portion of that responsibility off to FH. I think it's a sweet tradition.

Without getting into details, my grandfather (my mom's dad) will be walking me down the aisle. It makes me cry just thinking about it and I know it's going to be one of the most special parts of the day for sure.

I wam planning on my father giving me away, but he lives across the country and has some health issues. I would like to believe he will make the trip, but if he doesn't, my brother will give me away.

Skipping. I have two fathers and love them both, but I am not personally a fan of the symbolism of being given away by my dad(s). I will either have all four of my parents walk me down the aisle, or will walk myself and have them meet me at the end of the aisle.
