My step father pretty much raised me since my mom had custody of me but as I got older I built a strong relationship with my dad...I had an open and honest talk with my mom and step father and they were very understanding about my dad walking me down the aisle and when the pastor asked who gives this bride, all 3 we standing and said we do...I also did 2 father daughter dances...Daddy's little girl with my dad and Butterfly Kisses with my step father

If your dad and step dad get along have both of them walk you down the aisle. Or your stepdad down can walk you half way down the aisle and have your dad standing half way down the aisle so that your dad can give you away. I have seen several weddings where dad and stepdad both walked you down the aisle and it actually worked out good.

I had the same problem! I love my dad...he will always be my "daddy". But when my parents got divorced and my stepdad came into my life he filled in that time in my life when I didn't see my dad that often. I see it as they both took care of me, they both love me and they are both helping pay for it so they should both walk me down the isle. I asked my stepdad if he would walk with my dad and I down the isle and he insisted he NOT! I thought it was the fairest thing possible but he told me that I wasn't his to give away and that it was my dads job! I was shocked but actually very proud. Hes not that he thinks whoever walks me down the isle is the one I love more or just because hes my blood relative...he knows its because its his job. What I'm trying to say is that it's your choice...and your stepdads! If he would like to walk you down the isle go for it...have them both do it. If he would rather leave it traditional then at least you asked which will make him feel great! Either way as long as you ask it will work out...Good luck and congrats!!!

You could ask them both to walk you down the aisle, your Dad to your left on the heart side, and you step Dad on your right for support.
Congratulations, have a wonderful wedding and you are really blessed to have both a Dad and a step Dad to depend on and to love.
Blessings to you and your family.

who took the more active role in Raising you? you can choose to have a dance with each of them at the reception, but the walk down the aisle is a reward for a father who was really there for you

Tough question here . I would walk down with my dad but then step dad would get jealous . How about you walk down with both OR have dad walk you down half way then he can hand you over to your step dad and then from there he can walk you to your hubby .

You could have your step dad walk you down part way and meet your dad at that point your step dad could "give" your arm to your dad and he could continue down the rest of the way. They could both continue standing until the part where they give your hand to your fiance........

It has nothing to do with who is paying for the wedding. Choose the one closest to you, or have both. Or your mom, or walk alone, or do as we did - my husband and I walked up the aisle together, with our attendants walking in as couples before us.

you can always have both of them walk you down the aisle. i have seen it done before.
if they dont' get along though you should have your biological dad walk you down the aisle. your stepdad should understand.

You might have one walk you down the aisle, and the other dance the father-daughter dance with you...
I didn't have a relationship with my father, so I had to split between two big brothers... That's how I handled it - it worked for me (they were both happy with that).
Tough decision - good luck. (& congrats on your nuptials!)
