Try to picture your wedding day in your head. Really picture it. Who do you see walking you down the aisle? I am really close to my grandparents, they're like my parents to me. My grandfather walked me down the aisle, and I wouldn't have had it any other way. My husband's cousin just got married, and her dad couldn't be there and her grandfather passed away, so her mom walked her down the aisle. It was beautiful. It's up to you. Good luck with your decision, and I'm sure it'll be perfect, whatever you pick!

Have you talked to your mom about having her walk you down the aisle. You should ask her if she would be comfortable doing it. If not then either your grandpa or a brother, but have your oldest brother do it so as not to seem to be playing favorites. You could also walk down the aisle alone. My sister did this at her first wedding because she didn't have a relationship with our father or any uncles and my brother was only 12. She looked absolutely elegant and every eye was indeed only on her.

My parents are divorced and I don't talk much to my dad. I also have an older brother, but I am not that close to him. For a huge portion of my life, my mother has been by my side to raise me through good and bad times, and I have decided that she will be the one to walk me down the aisle when I get married next year. Really, it is up to you. Think about years from now, when you look back are you still going to be happy with your decision? Also, remember you can always have two people walk you down if you'd like.

Do you have a brother? Would your mom walk you down the aisle? How about a close friend? An uncle? A cousin?
Basically, the person who walks you down the aisle is a representative of YOUR life. They are presenting you to your groom to start a NEW life with him.
Anyone who loves you is a good candidate to walk you down the aisle.
Or you can present yourself to your groom by walking down the aisle alone.
Either way, the most important thing is it is YOUR and your groom's day. Make it special and memorable however you want it!
BEST WISHES!!!

My sister walked down the aisle by herself, and I'm planning on doing the same. I thought about an uncle or my brother-in-law (who is basically my brother), but I decided on just me.
No one thought otherwise, she looked beautiful coming down the aisle by herself. When the minister asked who gives her away, my mother and sisters all said "We Do."
If you do choose someone, I would choose your grandfather. You don't want to hurt one of your brother's feelings, that, and I'm sure it would mean an awful lot to him.
Congratulations!

I was in a similar boat; my father had passed away two years before I got married. I asked my mom to walk me down the aisle, but she didn't want to. I had an older brother, but I didn't want him to do it. I didn't want to walk alone, so my husband and I walked down the aisle together, with our attendants walking in as couples before us.
So you do have a lot of options - I'd ask your mom first, then grandfather, then brother, or go alone, or do as we did.

Its really up to you...but I think I would pick my grandfather to walk me down the isle. I would have my brothers also part of my wedding but as groomsmen.

If your mum has been there for you (and taking the place of the parent who is not there as single parents usually do) have her walk you down the aisle.
You could also have her AND your grandfather walk you down if you like the idea of having a man to do it.
Your mum raised you for the first part of your life...I'm sure she would be touched if you let her be the one to pass you on to start the next part with your new husband.

As a bride, you have so much on your plate already. Do you think it might help if you explained to your brothers, mother, and grandfather about your tough decision and see if they can decide amongst themselves who will walk you down the aisle?
Good luck and best wishes on your wedding day and marriage!

The first time I was married my mother walked me down the isle I was not speaking to my father and it was great she is like my best friend. But that all depends on who you are closest to.
