Poll #4 results

The question was: How should we enter for the processional?

Responses: four said the bride enters and the groom waits for her down front. Two said that everyone enters, one by one. Two responded that everyone enters, two by two. And one person thinks we need parachutes.

Seriously? No one else liked the parachute idea?

Here's the thing: I (i.e. your humble and lucky groom) has a maid of honor. That is, my best man is my best woman. (Actually, she hasn't officially been my best woman since I decided to marry Susann, but let's not split hairs here.) Two by two, pairing off the wedding party...yeah. Probably not gonna do that.

In our meeting with our officiant, he recommended against the groom just appearing from nowhere, waiting for his bride. And I can see that; among other things, the ceremony is small enough that a little more pomp and ado would be welcome.

So. Most likely, we'll come down groom and attendants, then bridal attendants, then bride. (My future mother-in-law, when asked where the flower girl would go in relation to the bride: the bride goes last. Important to remember, that.) More details to follow.

  1. Flower girl goes just before the bride, flinging a carpet of rose petals for the bride to walk on.

    The real question is when does the ring bearer enter?
