Not really a spat, just more of a disagreement between me and mom. Are ushers necessary? My take on it is that people file in and out of pews every Sunday and there is never a huge issue. (We aren't doing any 'bride side, groom side' thing, etc. We'd obviously just rope off the front row for immediate family. Also, the last wedding I went to, it really seemed like the ushers were awkward and they disrupted the natural flow. Am I crazy? Help me...am I completely overlooking something that it would be helpful to have ushers for? (Can't I just have groomsman file the mothers in?)
