Some brides decide to have their dad walk them up the aisle only halfway and then walk the other half by themselves. While this is going to be also seen as a scheme to go against a “male controlled society”, it should be accepted by most if you are concerned about it. Again, it may appear unacceptable to some stern traditionalists, but who’s paying for the wedding? Some brides opt to have only their mas walk them up the aisle. It’s not so much the break with custom that can cause difficulty as it is the bundle of nerves you will feel when walking up the aisle alone.

Everyone is “ahhing” you, your fiance is taking a look at you as if he is seeing an angel from heaven and you are happy on top of all that.

If you aren’t the shy type and still need to take a go at it, plan your marriage early so you are not stressed. For instance, you may have your uncle walk you down partly and then have your pop walk you down the remainder of the way. A bride who does not have her pop with her any more may still need someone that is sort of a dad to her to escort her down the aisle.

In this example it is sensible idea to get your escort’s approval way ahead and talk to family and friends about how they feel to measure how this will look if you are fearful of offending anybody. I know you could be terrified of offending someone, but it’s your day and almost all of the time your loved ones are not that “strict”.

Even if somebody else is footing the bill, it’s you who will have the most clear memories of your day and it’s you who will have to live with it.
