Walking down the aisle with my fiance

It sounds like the perfect choice for you two! I'm sure your guests will love getting to see that special moment.

I recently had two grooms walk up the beach from opposite directions and meet in the middle (in front of me). They were so excited to finally be able to get married that I was surprised neither one broke into a mad dash!

OP, I think it is great for you two to be untraditional and do what works for you.

My FW and I are considering walking down together.

I had planned on us walking down together until I realized my mother wanted to do walk with me and so I asked her.

I vote for meeting half way down the aisle!

That's a Quaker tradition and I've seen a lot of weddings like that. I think i's lovely. You are partners and are joining your lives together so I think it makes a lot of sense to walk in that way.

I think that will be super sweet and meaningful.

As a bride who has lost her father, this brought tears to my eyes. What a lovely lovely way to do the walk down the aisle.

We walked in together.

Haven't seen this done yet by anyone I know, but I think this is great!

Go for it sweetie! This would be beautiful and guests will always remember. So sorry for your loss :-(

It sounds beautiful! Do it!!

Love the idea! Gave me goosebumps due to how sweet it would be considering your unfortunate losses.

It's your wedding! There are no rules.

I had a couple who had no aisle and no wedding party. They both just strolled out on the patio where guests were having cocktails and people gathered round for the ceremony.

Do what makes you happy.

This is a great idea. It hadn't occurred to me. I'm an older bride and this isn't my first marriage, and I finally convinced my son to walk me. It's an outdoor ceremony. Are you having any attendants?

My deepest condolences to you and your FH. I think your plan is absolutely perfect in every way. I love the symbolism of it and I couldn't help but cry reading your story. As for the dancing part, you could dedicate a few of your parents' favorite songs and still dance with each other/grandparents/their remaining siblings?

That's an absolutely amazing idea!!

That is what we plan to do. I'm going to go halfway down, then he is going to meet me and we go the rest of the way together.

I'm very sorry for your loss. But I love the idea!

I've posted this a few times before, but the crown princess Victoria of Sweden walked half of the aisle with her dad, met her groom halfway, and then walked the rest of it with him. And our landlord walked by herself half of the aisle, then with her groom the other half. I think her BMs and GM did the same - each GM met the BM halfway. That's another alternative for the first look he could wait for you halfway, see you, and then you can link arms and walk together the rest of the way.

Ladies its me again...thank you all and thank you for the additional ideas. I love him meeting me halfway and his first look is when the doors open and I walk to him halfway, then we proceed down the aisle together.

I wish this site was like facebook where I could respond to the specific questions some had. But I know someone asked if I had attendants. yes I do. My closets girls who have been with me thru it all and this journey to this point. the guys he picks. I am an only child so no brother to add to his crew of men.

I'm super excited and can totally envision this and have a great feeling about it now. better than the uneasy feeling I had and the stress of being forced to find someone to walk with me knowing the person I wanted is watching over us in Heaven :-)

have a great day ladies. CONGRATS AGAIN to you all and look forward to walking this wedding planning path with you all :-)
