The Ringbearer can come first (or just before the flower girl-it is up to you) then the bridesmaids then the maid of honor then the flower girl then the bride.
I have never been to a wedding that had anyone come after the bride, Even at my own and I had a wedding coordinator. The bride makes the final Grand Entrance....everyone else comes in then they close the doors and the music for the bride starts and everyone in the room stands up then her and her father or whom ever is walking her down the aisle and she makes her grand entrance in front of everyone. NOONE follows her. She is the final and most important entrance.
I hope this helps and take care.

Lol, there's a culture divide on this one!!
In American and Aussie weddings the bridesmaids and flower girls come first, and take their places before the bride enters- the bride is always last.
In UK weddings, the bride is first with the bridesmaids walking right behind her (traditionally holding her train)
This gets confusing because you see so many American weddings on TV shows and movies with the bride coming last, but I've never seen this in a UK wedding- the bride has always been first.
Funny how all the Americans keep thumbs-downing everyone who says "bride first"- don't people realise that if loads of people are saying it, maybe it's actually true somewhere?!?!

The only hard fast rule that I know of is that no couple walk down the aisle (other then the bride and her father) until after the ceremony. All of the bridesmaids and maid of honor are unescourted until the end of the ceremony when they follow the new husband and wife back up the aisle.
Also the original purpose of the flower girl was to drop pedals for the bride to walk upon, so she is supposed to come before the bride.

As far as i know it doesn't make to much of a difference...I've seen alot of weddings in America where the bridesmaids go first whereas in this country the bride tends to go first...i am getting married in December and the bridesmaids are going down the aisle first.Hope this helps.xx

The bridesmaid are to come first for two reasons:
1) They are announcing the "Coming of the Bride" &
2) The purpose of bridesmaids are to be the witnesses of the wedding. If they came after the bride that wouldn't make much sense.
Besides, You save the best for last...the bride.

The Bridesmaid goes up the aisle 1st and the Bride and Groom go down the aisle first then the Bridesmaid and Bestman after their vow's have been said.

Bridesmaids go in first - Bride is the last to enter. When leaving the church, the bride and groom leave first, followed by the other attendants.

You've never been to or SEEN a wedding?
The bride is the LAST person down the aisle heading to the altar.
The bride and groom are the FIRST people down the aisle heading out and away from the altar.

interior the flicks, they stand by the bride, yet I extremely have in straightforward terms seen a million (out of like 10) weddings the place the bridesmaids stand with the bride. it extremely relies upon. each and every on occasion the ceremony runs long so its extra valuable to have them sit down, and if there are a number of bridesmaids. If its short and you in straightforward terms have like 3 or 4 bridesmaids then it somewhat is going to look intense-high quality in the event that they stand by you.
