Walking in as a group for ceremony processional

Hi everyone! I’m having a small family ceremony with the exception of our chose bridal party. We will be mingling and spending time with everyone taking photos before the ceremony up until it starts. I’ve never been one for too formal or dramatic of an entrance so I’m thinking to do a slightly more casual processional where we all enter in pairs but as a group. So the music would start and my fiancé would walk in first closely followed by the wedding party in pairs and then my dad and I. I should also say that I do tend to struggle with performance anxiety and walking in as a group feels nice.

I accidentally posted this without finishing. I meant to say “I was very much dreading the whole build up to a dramatic entrance. I think it would fit the vibe I’m trying to create for the day. Has anyone else ever done this before?”

Another option might be to have your mom and dad walk with you. But do what you think will work best for you. People enjoy some of the tradition in the wedding but only some basic etiquette is needed. Maybe just check with your parents or your dad, as applicable to make sure your plan is agreeable. Also, maybe let the guests know you will be entering differently. These are just ideas as an initial guess for your situation.

Thank you! My dad and I would still walk together but just more so in a group formation with the others ahead of us, if that makes sense! It wouldn’t be as drawn out of a procession since there would be 6 pairs including him and I.

Sure. I just added another possibility where if there were three of you (i.e. with mom and dad) it might allow you to follow a little further behind the group. I think a few brides discussing stuff at weddingwire were just going to come in from the side and avoid the focus. Weddings don't have to follow all the traditions. It is a bit better though to work it out like you have rather than eloping -- as some might do just for fewer challenges. I'm not good in crowds, so it makes sense to me, Just enjoy it whichever way you go.
