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...

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?)

Just thought of another use. Once the groomsmen are in place in the front of the church, the ushers will be needed to roll out the aisle runner.

We're not having ushers. I usually think of ushers being there if you have people you want to include in a minor portion of your wedding, or if you just have so many people that you need help with the chaos. We're not having that big of a wedding, so hopefully there won't be enough chaos to need any. We're also only having 2 people in our wedding party. She'll have a maid of honor and I'll be having a man of honor.
