Advice, Please...

Should I walk down the aisle alone or with my brother? He is in the bridal party, and if he walks with me, I think the bridesmaids and groomsmen will have to walk single file. Is this okay? I was considering just walking alone...will that look really bad/sad?

Re: Advice, Please...

first you need to decide if you want to walk alone or walk with your brother...

If you want to walk with your brother then just have the bridal party walk single file! I think that is totally fine... It is more important that you walk down the aisle with who you want!

Alot of BP walk single file into the church anyways (mine are) and then together on the way out. If you think you don't want to walk down alone, DEFINITELY have your brother there. I lost my dad four years ago and I'm having BOTH my brothers walk me down - couldn't imagine choosing b/w the two!

I think it would be wonderful to walk with your brother.

As someone said during the processional the Bm walk down single file so it wil not be a factor.

I think you should do whatever makes you happy. Think about yourself first, BP second. Remember it's your day.

We had an uneven bridal party and the aisle was very narrow so we had the guys up front with the groom and the girls walk alone. It was very nice.

You should walk down the way that will make you feel most comfortable. At my wedding, I walked down alone becuase my Dad is handicap, and was great. I didnt feel weird at all! Good Luck

My DH wanted my brother in the bridal party but I wanted him to walk me down. I felt since I didn't have my mom or dad at least my brother had to give me away. Its really your decision but I def say walk down with your brother.
