I personally do not think height matters in terms of walking down the aisle or introductions. People base order on different things like age or relationship to the bride and the groom.

I don't think there will be any rhyme and reason to how I have everyone lined up. Although maybe I will have my SIL go first (she's about 4'9', everyone else is about the same height give or take an inch or 2)

Honestly in every wedding movie I've seen between my FILs and few from friends and family I've never noticed the BM height. I noticed how pretty they looked, and how lovely the dress was that they were wearing and the flowers too.
I use to love seeing them all together because they call were dressed alike. So to me at least it never was even a thought.

I don't think height should play into it at all. The BM will walk in according to your personal preference, and the MOH traditionally walks in alone just before the FG, who immediately proceeds the bride. I think for the introductions they walk in, in the same order they went down the aisle.

I had all different hieghts and I just refused to think about it! The pictures may look strange to some people but I just see my friends and family when I look at them. We set them all up at the last minute.

I'm not going by height. If you do it with BM, then you have to do it with GM. It just gets insane.

I did not go by height at all. IMO I don't think it is that important.

I agree.

Traditionally the BM's walk down before the MOH. That being said you could have the shortest BM go 1st and the the taller BM. And you could do the same for the MOH or have them walk down at the same time. It's really up to you. Nothing is set in stone. You should do what makes you happy!!!

My 2 MOH are shorter than all other 6 girls but I don't care...they like to wear high heels and the other girls don't tend to so it should all be fine.

Don't worry about it... I'll have a similar issue, because my MOH (my best friend) is 4'11, and my bridal party is my sister who is 5'6 and my brother who is over 6'. I don't think it matters other than making sure that my MOH feels comfortable and not self-concious... that would be my biggest concern, as the next shortest person in the entire wedding party will be my sister at 5'6, and I'm 5'10, and the groom and all the groomsmen will be at least 6' or more... you get the picture. I have a tall family, and Jeff has tall friends. So, my main concern is just making sure everybody feels comfortable, especially my MOH. In terms of pictures, we'll just have to make sure we pose so that she doesn't get lost and fits in well with the composition of the picture... but that's something any good photographer should be able to deal with.
