Order: Walking down the aisle?

[RAENJAY]

Do I have the mothers seated before Jason goes down the aisle, or is he supposed to go down first and then have the mothers seated? I'm thinking if he goes down first, then I have his mom, then mine, then Ryan can take his place by Jason. Then the girls, then me. Is this right? Why am I having brain fade?

Jose "Pepe" Lima is doing my photos. I was torn between Juan, Manuel Burgoin, and Pepe. Juan was already booked, I didn't like the (what seemed to me) slow response time from Manuel, and I loved Pepe's attitude and excitment so I went with him. I think that he's going to do a great job with our photos. We're doing "romantic" shots on Friday in town and around the marina, and then we'll have him for 4 hours on Saturday for the wedding. From talking with him on email and things, we both have the same kind of attitude and thoughts, so I hope they are as great I think they will be.

The Wedding Processional -- The Order of Walking Up the Aisle During a Wedding Processional

[Kat81]

But I am doing it a bit different. I am having the mothers sat last THEN I am starting the Mission Impossible theme and having the Groomsmen and the Groom walk up one by one with sunglasses on then having another song playing for the bridemaids. I am not having a ring bearer or flowergirl so then I am will walk to the bridal march.

I have played the piano or organ at tons of weddings, and 99% have the mothers seated after all the guests have been seated. This signals that the wedding is ready to begin. Then the groom comes next. My husband actually walked our son down the aisle. Basically I think you can do whatever fits your particular situation and is most meaningful to you as a couple.

I don't think my FI or the GM will walk down the aisle, but we can figure that out later. Our BM will make their way down the aisle, followed by MOH. Instead of having the FG & RB (our children aged 3 1/2 & 16 months at the time of the wedding) walk down by themselves, my Mom is going to walk down with them. Then it will be me and my Dad.
