Processional with no bridesmaids

FH and I are having his best man and my three brothers stand with us. No bridesmaids. I'm not sure what to do with the guys at the beginning. Do they all just come out with FH and stand up front? Should they walk down before me, maybe escort their wives/girls then head to the stage?

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks!

This really depends on how you would like your groom to enter the ceremony.. down the aisle or from the side...??

Typically when I have had brides in this scenario two of the groomsmen have been in charge of ushering while the best man and the groom stay hidden away, then they all do one of two things:

1. the ushers finish the seating and join the best man and groom. Then the officiant, the groom, the groomsmen come out from a side door to the alter area and then processional music is cued for flower girl/ring bearers/ bride, or

2. the ushers finish the seating and walk up the aisle to the alter area, then processional music is cued and best man walks mother-of-the-bride up the aisle, then groom walks his mother up the aisle (dad is already seated) and then flower girl/ ring bearers/ bride.

My FH will have his 2 brothers stand with him. I will only have MOH. The men and clergy will enter from the side. The MOH and then the bride (me) will enter from the rear. I am calling it "Wedding Party Entrance" in my program, not "Processional."
