Personally....I think it's your wedding...you can do whatever you want. Have fun :)

I think you can do whatever you want...if you want your 2 guy friends to escort people down the aisle to seat them, then designate them to do so. Just let your GM know that the job is theirs and they don't have to do it.

I think you can, I have my cousin walking my mom down the asile because i dont have a brother and i cant pick between my uncles. He isnt in the bridal party but is part of the wedding.

Re: ushers

Where I am from (New Orleans), we always have groomsmen and separate ushers. I am definetely doing this at my wedding--I think it's fine, and I have way too many groomesmen anyway!! They would take up the entire entrace area.

Re: ushers

i am having my two brothers who are not groomsmen as ushers to walk my mother down the aisle and to hand out programs. I am also having my FH's two sisters, also not bridesmaids, to walk their father down the aisle and into the reception.
