I'm getting married soon...I don't have anyone to walk me down the aisle?

Question

My father passed away when I was little and I am not very close to his brother or anyone on that side of the family..
Both of my grandfathers are gone
I don't have any males that I am close to.
Would it be strange if I walked down the aisle alone?

Answer 1

How 'bout mom? Your pastor? Your sister's husband? Your best friend? A nephew or niece?

Answer 2

I've been to a few weddings where the bride comes down the aisle alone and it's perfectly fine, in both cases the bride looked so stunning it wasn't even an issue - walk down the aisle to you and your future hubby's favorite love song to make it even more memorable, if you really want someone to walk you down the aisle ask a woman that you know and trust or see if someone in your in-law family can do it. Otherwise there's absolutely nothing wrong with walking alone - just make sure your dress is to die for ! : ) enjoy your day and congratulations

Answer 3

i would not say this is a nobrainer on your dad to stroll you down the aisle in any respect. I truthfully think of you need to incorporate your different dad. There are some the thank you to do this. you need to have one walk on one element of you, and the different on the different element. you need to have one initiate out strolling you down the aisle, and the different finally finally end up after approximately halfway. Symbolically, i think of it'd make the main experience to begin strolling in with your 2d dad (Pop). he's been there for you tremendously much your finished existence. approximately halfway down, your dad can connect the two one in each of you for the remainder of the walk. That final area with the two one in each of them might point out the time on account which you have been 19, once you have had 2 solid dads on your existence on an identical time.

Answer 4

Traditionally when the brides father is unavailable the mother does it, or a close friend. Whomever you choose sweetie but don't stress over this, and don't walk down the aisle alone either, just find a friend. A bride needs to be helped down the aisle, you could get faint or something.

Answer 5

It would not be strange or even uncommon to walk yourself down the aisle, but it might be hard to do on your own.

You could:

Ask the best man to walk you down the aisle
Ask your maid of honor to walk with you
Just follow your bridesmaids in
Have your mother walk with you
Or, ask the groom's dad walk you down the aisle

Since that will probably be a bittersweet day for you with so many of your relatives having had passed on it might be nice to have floral wreaths on the outside doors in memory and honor of your lost loved ones...

Answer 6

First, I am sorry for your losses. That is hard, I know. To answer your question:

I think it would be an excellent idea for you to walk unescorted down the aisle on your wedding day. It is a sign of your independence and a positive statement about you.

Best wishes and good luck.

Answer 7

I don't see any thing with walking down the aisle by yourself or even ask you mother to walk you down the aisle. When my cousin got married my aunt and her older brother walked her down the aisle and my cousin lost her dad at an early age too

Answer 8

No of course not! It's your wedding so you can do whatever you want. Plus it sounds like you have become an independent person anyway - so why not symbolize that by walking down the aisle alone.

Answer 9

hey darling...I am in the exact same situation, my father passed away, as did both of my grandfathers. I thought of having my mom walk me down, but first of all she is most likely going to be very emotional and needs to be somewhere close to where she can sit down!, and also I want her to watch me walk down the aisle, as does she!
My final solution was to walk down the aisle myself, and then my fiance is going to meet me 1/2 way and walk me the rest of the way!
good luck!

Answer 10

there is no written law that says you have to be walked down the aisle by a man or even a woman for that matter . . it was also a sign of the father giving his daughter to her husband . . in today's society, many woman walk down the aisle alone . . you can have anyone walk you down tho if you want someone too, and yes, it can be a girl .......... walk alone, with your head held high . . no one is going to care if you are doing it by youself . . congrats

independent woman as well.But if you're mom is still alive
then you could have her walk you down the aisle.best of luck
