Male bridesmaid, how to have them walk down the aisle

We are having the the groomsmen enter from the side with the Pastor and groom before the processional. Then the bridesmaids will walk one by one before me. And then for the recessional you can have them just walk down at the same time. They don't have to escort each other or hold hands. Just walk next to each other.

You can really do this however you want. A few ideas:

1. Everyone just walks one by one

2. Have the groomsmen stand at the altar w/ your FH, and the male bridesmaids can escort the female ones down the aisle

3. Have everyone process, but have each female BM escorted by one groomsman and one male BM.

4. Have each groomsman walk down with a BM, regardless of their gender. Two guys can definitely walk down together. They don't have to link arms or anything. FWIW, I've seen this done at weddings and it wasn't weird.

Basically, just figure out whatever will flow.

Oh the idea of having the groomsmen already there is good I didn't even think about that!

@Lori I thought about your second suggestions, do you think it would look ok for the to walk down and then go to the same side rather than splitting off? If the numbers work out I'll probably do the three at a time option

Thank y'all so much! I really just needed opinions on what would and wouldn't look odd

We are going to have my bridesman walk with one of my bridesmaids and a groomsman because I have 5 BMs, a Bridesmand, and FH only had 5 groomsmen. It will work and look great!

We have two "bridesmen" as well! We plan to have everyone walk down the aisle, together. A man and a woman for the first four, and then one bridesmaid will trail them before my nephew and niece walk down (RB and FG), followed by my father and I.

We have a groomsmaid. How it works in our church is that the groomsmen are already up there and my BMs and MOH walk down alone. We will probably have our groomsmaid walk down alone too and then just stand on his side. Then when they walk back after the ceremony, they are paired up and she will be paired up with a bridesmaid.

All of the bridal party can already be at the alter? It can just be FG, RB and you that walk down

Friend had a male MOH and he just walked alone and the last 2 BM's and GM walked together.

We are having everyone walk in one by one for the same reason.

I had the GMs already up at the front. I had one "Bride's Honor Attendant" if you will and he was at the end of my line and ushered my mother in. When the recessional started, he ushered my mother out and the lone GMs ushered out Zach's mother. It worked great.
