Programs - What order do I list BM's?

What order do I list the Brisdesmaids and Groomsmen in the programs?

I originally had

MOH
tallest BM
2nd tallest BM
....
shortest BM

Because I am partnering them up with GM's this way.

but my mom pointed out that they will walk down the aisle in reverse order and my shortest BM will walk first so her name should be listed first.

but the MOH will walk last should her name still be on top (I think it should)??
Help what are you doing???

For both BM and GM, I listed Best Man and MOH first. Then I listed everyone else in alphabetical order.

Did the same here- listed maid of honor and best man and then listed the bridesmaids and groomsne in alphabetical order.

This may seem weird, but I'm doing alphabetical order EXCLUDING MOH, Jr. BM, and FG.

MOH will be on top

Then BM's in alphabetical order

Then Jr. BM

Then FG's

Same will go for Groomsmen and BM...

LOL - I guess it's not so weird after all... I meant to say I'm not doing it in relation to the way they are walking down the aisle

I totally see your point. I listed my bridal party like following

celebrant name (centered)
bride's parents name (centered)
groom's parents name (centered)
matron of honor and best man (in columns)
BM and GM (in columns) in order they will walk down
Ring Bearer (centered)
oragnist Singer (centered)
I did this because it was really the most visually appealling on the page and still made sense.

I like them in order they walk down because I know often if I am not very friendly with the bridal party members - I like to put the name to the face.

Thanks everyone.

My mom suggested in the way they walk down so that people would know who is who. I think I will do it like that with the MOH and BM listed first and then the rest.
