Hi all, my FH and I have decided to not have a wedding party. I have two close friends and my FH has a few friends but none that he is close to anymore. We just decided to not have BM/GM. so who would be walking down the aisle? And is it okay if we stand at the alter alone or should we at least choose a best man and maid of honor?

HI - I didn't have any bridesmaids / groomsmen...... Here is how we walked down the aisle:
1. my DH and his Mom
2. my 10 year old niece (flower girl)
3. my 6 year old nephew (ring bearer)
4. me and my parents.
That's it! My niece/nephew really wanted a role so i happily included them. We did it all during the same entrance song and then it was just my DH and I standing up with the officiant. We had a largish wedding (185 guests) and I don't think it looked odd to just have us 3 in front of a crowd. Worked out great for us!

If you want to honor any family members, you could have them walk. Will you have a flowergirl or ring bearer? They would walk as well. There's nothing wrong with standing at the altar alone.

I am also not having a wedding party. We're doing a very small ceremony so I don't have any advice to give you but you definitely dont need anyone to stand at the altar with you, you should be fine with just your FH and officiant.

My brother-in-law and sister did not have a wedding party for their vow renewal. Instead, they began at opposite sides behind the chairs, walked towards each other, then down the aisle together. It was one of the most beautiful and powerful wedding walks I've seen.

Your mother and and any siblings can walk down. Your FH's mom and dad can walk down together and any siblings, grandparents if you want and then your dad walks you down. You can stand up there alone no problem!
