Help I don't know who the Father of the groom should walk with at our wedding?

Question

Well My father is walking me down the isle and he has a wife to walk into the reception with. My mother is walking in with my stepfather and the grooms mother is walking in with her husband. But his father has no one and my fiance would really ike to have his father walk in. Who should he walk in with or is it wrong to ask him if he wants to walk in alone?

Answer 1

It would be a lovely gesture to have your groom escort his father to his seat, and just before the older gentleman sits, they shake hands....then the groom can continue to his spot where he awaits his bride.

Answer 2

What if one of the ushers walked him down the aisle? Does your fiance have any brothers or sisters? Or the groom can walk his father down the aisle before taking his spot at the front of the church.

Answer 3

Garnet Glitter had a great idea! Have the groom walk in with his father and then proceed to the alter.

Answer 4

Pick a good friend who he knows and likes and ask to have them walk together. Or ask if he has some one in mind that he would like to bring and walk with (even if you dont know her) just to make him comfortable...

or his mother if shes still around....



Just pick some one he will feel comfortable with and be happy to walk with... you can let him walk alone if he differs or ask if he (and you fathers wife) would be comfortable to walk together (including both!!!)(ask your dad too)

Answer 5

He can walk in alone. Often the women are escorted by a groomsmen anyway, and the men walk in behind alone.



Maybe a grandmother or aunt?

Answer 6

I'm not sure I understand. Does this gentleman have impaired vision or some other disability? Surely the other members of the wedding party can help him into the hall and to his place in the recieving line. It doesn't matter much who it is, so long as it is done with courtesy and respect. Make sure that the people in the receiving line near him are considerate of his disability, such as naming people if he is vision impaired, speaking loudly if he is hearing impaired, and so on.

Answer 7

Could he possibly bring a date to the wedding? I would ask him how he feels about it first. He may not mind walking in alone.

Answer 8

Perhaps a bridesmaid can walk him to his seat if he feels weird walking alone.

Answer 9

Try your flower girl and or ring bearer! They make great little buddies and its always very special especially if they are grand children!

Answer 10

have him walk with two bridesmaids. he'll look like a chick magnet and maybe he'll meet an eligible single lady!

Answer 11

is there a younger female cousin, like a teenager who would walk with him? or a single aunt?

Answer 12

What about your grandmother or your fiance's grandmother? Do they have escorts?

Answer 13

Maybe a child or grandchild???
