Do the parents exit out as well with the rest of the bridal party? After the exit we will be taking pics in the lobby area and our parents will be in these pics as well.

    Found this online:

    For the recessional in a typical ceremony, the newly married couple typically lead the way, followed by ring bearers and flower girls, the maid of honor and best man, and the bridesmaids and groomsmen. If the bridesmaids and groomsmen were paired up for the processional, they typically also exit the ceremony in pairs.

    Once the entire bridal party has finished exiting the ceremony space, then the immediate family of the couple exits. Typically, once the families have exited, the officiant or minister will dismiss the guests to exit and head to the reception.

    Yes! I see it as if they were in the processional then they’d be in the recessional too

    Usually only the couple, wedding party, and officiant are in the recession. I think it’s common knowledge that the first row or two of exits first though.
