What order do we walk down the aisle??

Five minutes is definitely long enough. However, the bride normally walks down the aisle to her own song. Why can't your future mother-in-law walk down the aisle with your brother-in-law? Is there another male relative your mom could be escorted by? For our wedding, my brother (who was also a bridesman) escorted my mom down the aisle since my dad was with me and my brother-in-law (who was also a groomsman) escorted my mother-in-law. My husband's parents are separated. My father-in-law and his fiancee didn't walk down the aisle. After my brother and brother-in-law escorted our moms down the aisle they looped back around and walked around so my brother could escort the groomswoman and my brother-in-law could escort one of the bridesmaids. As for timing, they were signaled by the venue coordinator when to walk.

I'm having the following order:

My grandparents (only set of grandparents)

My FMIL with her brother (my FH uncle)

My mother on her own

The groomsmen

The best man

My FH

My bridesmaids

My MOH

the FG

Me & My father.

There will be several songs faded in and out as the different groups change. Hope that helps!

I'm guessing your brother-in-law is the best man. I disagree with whoever told you that looping around doesn't look right. We had no issues with my brother or brother-in-law looping around. We just practiced it at the rehearsal to make sure we timed it right.

Ours was a hotel lobby so they just walked along the side, but you could still see them. No one really paid close attention as they were busy watching the other bridesmaids and groomsmen walk down the aisle. Another option would be to have your fiance walk his mom down the aisle then he would take his place at the front.

How about both Mom’s walking together? They are usually seated prior to the wedding party coming down.

We won't be having my FMIL walk down the aisle; she'll just be seated. Where I'm from, traditionally the groom's mom isn't really featured at all. So ours will be my mom, who will walk to her seat and sit down, then the bridal party in pairs, and then the flower girls and ring bearer. Then the song will change and my dad will walk me down the aisle. Five minutes should be totally fine for length for the mom(s) and bridal party.
