Re: church wedding processional

My daughter just got married last week. The groom was up at the altar with his best man. It was MOG(escorted by her husband), MOB(escorted by an usher) she had 4 ushers and only 2 matrons of honor. She had 1 usher escort me (mob) to my seat, then he sat up front. Two ushers walked alone. The other was his brotherinlaw. His wife was Matron of Honor & their 2 kids were in it too. The 4 of them came in together. Then the other matron of honor walked alone, then Bride & her Dad. It really can be any way you want it.

It may depend on your religion. Are you having a religious ceremony? Who and how many are in your bridal party?

Emily Post's wedding etiquette guide (purple cover) addresses a variety of ways the processional can proceed.

FTR, DH and I had a mostly secular (some Jewish elements, since he's Jewish) ceremony. Party consisted of me (bride), him (groom), 4 BMs, 1 MOH, 4 GMs, 1 best man. No ushers, FG, or RB.

Two of the GMs escorted the MOG, then MOB to their seats. The two escorting GMs joined the remaining GMs and groom at the front. The BMs each walked in by themselves with MOH last. I walked in with my father, joining the rest at the front.

Good luck!

When my son got married MOB went with usher then my son walk me and when we got to the end he took both me and MOB to light the unity candle then escorted us both to our seats it was really special to me that he did this way. After that it was the mh,then bm and the bestman meet the mh half way and each of the groomsmen meet the bm half way. And then she had a which we called a little special usher pull the fg and rb in a wagon it was so cute. Then bride and father.

If you are getting married at a church or the hall the order is

Groom and BM
Grandparents of the bride
Grandparents of the Groom
Mother of the bride (if she isnt walking with you)
Parents of the Groom
Bridal Party (in wahtever order)
MOH
FG/RB

Bride and Father (or both)

If you want your FH to have his parents walk him you can do this if you want to, just switch the Bm out and have the parents walk in stead
