Need alternate ideas for walking down the aisle

I will.be walking solo. No father. I know people walk with 2 escorts with them holding around the elbow nook but for holding 2 kids hands you're stuck for the bouquet. I'd just walk solo

You could have your mom, aunt, grandparent...or have the nephews walk you down and grab your bouquet from your MOH once you hit the end of the aisle. They would probably be pretty excited about escorting you!

Plus costumes for kids just dull the elegance of the event.

Maybe they can walk in front of you, like the flower girl would (if you had one)? And you can walk solo with bouquet. As far as incorporating superhero's, I would dress them to match your groomsmen, but incorporate one 'superhero' element. Like holding superhero props (ex, cap't america's shield, or thor's hammer). Or they could dress in the color scheme of their favorite superhero, or just wearing their mask or helmet.

Aww, that's so cute! I love the idea of you walking with your nephews. I like Jenni's idea of having your MOH (or even your FH ) holding your bouquet. How old are your nephews? Could they wear white shirt, black pants, and suspenders, and underneath wear a t-shirt of their favorite super hero? (Clark Kent style?) Or you could have them in full cosplay, I think that would be adorable! But I'm all for showing your style and what makes you and your FH who you are at your wedding.

I'd put them in nice little suits and attach superhero capes to their backs and you can follow behind them. That'd be super adorable

My dad is also deceased. I'm walking myself down the aisle. I'm going to attach a picture of my dad to my shoes so he can be there as I walk.

Do you have any family members, or people in your life that you are close with?

You can (as you mentioned) meet your FH halfway.

I agree with Alexis about the suits and little capes (red capes!).

I will either have my 16 yo nephew walk me or walk solo.

You could research different traditions for walking down the isle. In Jewish tradition both parents walk with the bride, so walking with your mother wouldn't be too far off the beaten path.

Different opinion alert. I'm not a fan of the capes (or, in other weddings, the cute signs for the RB's, "bling security" attache cases, etc). The focus of the wedding is you and your fiancé, and as funny as my weddings are, the focus is always on the couple, and IMHO, your entrance should be special, amazing, and singular, not focused on children, especially children in costumes. your guests are all aware that traditionally, your father would be walking with you, and I don't think two kids in costumes is a suitable substitute.

I've recently married several women who have lost their fathers. Two of them walked with their moms, which personally, I love, since that 'walk' is full of bittersweetness for your mom as well. One walked with her grandfather, and one walked in with her groom. (That was a smaller wedding with literally no processional except me, the MOH and BM, then the couple. It was lovely.)

The superhero thing could happen later in the evening, maybe when they are intro'd as RB's (you can have them, even without FG's). They could come into one of the themes, and it might be cute, but it doesn't make sense to me as part of the processional.

Just my 4.5 cents.

I agree with Celia.

I think Celia said it perfectly.

Thanks everyone for the tips and suggestions. My mom is a licenced officiant and will be performing the ceremony. I do like the idea of the red capes and/or a little mask for them. Also the superhero shirts under their white shirts partly open. I do have 3 half brothers but not particularly close with any of them. One with an extreme disability and would not be able to go down the aisle with me. And not sure how I'd choose between the other 2. I suppose it could be an option to ask both of them except they have no relation to each other and I don't even recall if they've ever even met so it wouldn't feel very 'special' to me.

I also only have one grandparent that is still alive but they are in a nursing home and will not be able to attend either.

I will have a locket with my father's pic wrapped around the stem of my bouquet so maybe I should just leave it at that and walk myself. Still got lots of time to decide.

I appreciate all the suggestions ladies. :-)

I agree alone is the best option in your case. i lost my dad too but i asked my mom to walk me down.
