Is there anyone here willing to share their experience of doing an alternative walk down the aisle? What are the options for people who don’t necessarily have the closest relationship with their family of origin?

Are there people with intact families, but lacking a good relationship with their dad who are doing something other than having dad walk you down the aisle? Did your family see this as an insult or were they accepting of your decisions?

I can see that maybe it’s easier just to let one or both of the parents walk you, even though it’s not a reflection of the relationship. Maybe it’s just easier not to make waves? What are your thoughts? How did you deal with it? Did you try to heal problems in your relationship with your dad (or parents) prior to the wedding? Did you just let it go because it’s easier?
