Bridal party

FH and I were trying to figure out the whole bridal party setup last night. Neither of us have been to many wedding ceremonies, so we aren't sure how the whole walking down the aisle thing is supposed to work for the bridal party.

I already have a MOH, bridesmaid and Jr. Bridesmaid. FH only picked his bestman so far. So my questions are:

1) Does the MOH walk down with the bestman? I always thought she walks down by herself while the bestman is already next to the groom.

2) Must my 11 yr. old Jr. bridesmaid be paired with a Jr. Groomsmen? because so far we don't know any kid old enough to be one.

3) If the MOH and Jr. bridesmaid walk down by themselves, wouldn't it look weird for only one bridesmaid to walk down with a guy?

4) FH wants all our brothers to be in tuxes, even though they are not necessarily in the bridal party. I figure my brother can walk my mom down the aisle, and his two brothers can be ushers (his sister doesn't want to walk down with a brother). Will it look bad that there will be more guys in tuxes than bridesmaids?

Any feedback would be much appreciated. We are clueless in this area. We wanted to include our family in the whole thing, but it's turning out to be more difficult than we thought.

Hi there. I don't think there's too many 'standards' anymore; it's whatever you think looks best! My suggestions to your questions would be:

1) MOH typically walks down alone; BestMan is already up there with FH
2) Jr Bridesmaid can definitely be alone; no need for a pairup for her!
3) I don't think it will look weird for the one couple to come down, but if you're self-conscious of that, the other groomsman can also come out with FH and Best man, and the bridesmaid can walk down solo
4) it's definitely fine for your brothers to be in tuxes, and not in the bp. They are immediate family. You may even want his brothers to pull the runner down for you. You can just have them have different color vests/ties than the groomsmen (i.e. if the groomsmen have black vests/ties, have them wear charcoal grey)
