Texas Twosome: We Walk!

February 15th, 2011 @ 3:59 pm by Mrs. Plaid

Let’s get this thing started!

Before I show you pictures, I want to give you a list of the order we had people walk down the aisle. I know when I was planning our ceremony, I spent a lot of time thinking about what the most logical way to get everyone down the aisle would be. Here we go:

  1. Bride’s Mom and Step-Dad
  2. Groom and his Mom and Grandmother
  3. Groom’s Dad/Best Man and Step-Mom
  4. Groomsman and both MOHs
  5. Groomsman and Bridesmaid
  6. Groomsman and Bridesmaid
  7. Groomsman and Bridesmaid
  8. Bride and Father

I hope this helps for all the brides currently planning their ceremonies! OK, lets really get this thing started. And now for some very cheesy ’90s music:

Our guests really got a kick out our song choice, “Love of a Lifetime” by Firehouse. Mr. P once told me (jokingly) that this song popped into his head every time he thought of me so I had no choice but to include it in our music line-up.

First up, my mom and her husband.

Then Mr. P with his grandma on the left and his mom on the right.

Next, his dad and best man with his wife.

Now, Groomsman Grady with my two beautiful MOHs, my big sis, Sarah and my friend, Leesa.

Then we have Groomsman Shawn, Mr. P’s little brother and Bridesmaid Tiffani, Mr. P’s sister.

Next, Groomsman Jarred and Bridesmaid Jenna.

Last, Groomsman AJ, Mr. P’s nephew and Bridesmaid Ashley, Mr. P’s sister and AJ’s mom.

Miraculously, “Love of a Lifetime” was the perfect length for everyone to get down the aisle and in their places before it was my turn to make my debut.

Now my turn! And of course, a song change.

It took me a long time to decide on the song I wanted to walk down the aisle to. I eventually chose, “I Will Find You” by Clannad. It’s from Last of the Mohicans, one of my all-time favorite movies. I love the lyrics and how chilling/haunting the song is.

I let the music start and then I began the biggest walk of my life.

I made my way down the stairs alone while Mr. P and his father (and the rest of our guests) watched.

And then joined my Dad at the bottom of the steps for the rest of the walk to my almost-husband.

I hugged my dad and he kissed my cheek.

It was finally time to get hitched!

LOVE that Mohicans song! So sweet P! I also walked a bit by myself and met my dad at the middle for the walk down the aisle.

LOL Firehouse was the song we danced to at the reception for our first song….back in 1995.
Just an FYI for other brides to “bee” the proper order of walking down the aisle is that the bride’s mother is seated last, that signals the start of the ceremony and no one is seated after her.

I was IN LOVE with Last of the Mohicans when I was younger. I just knew that I was going to be in the woods one day and Daniel Day Lewis was going to come sweep me off my feet.

..also I was pretty young so I was pronouncing it Last of the Mo-hick-i-ans. Instead of Mohicans. :)

Thanks Ladies!

@jerkamuffin: That’s how my gma still pronounces it. And I too dreamt of a dreamy Daniel Day Lewis meeting in the woods.

@Ms Chihuahua: I love that brides don’t have to follow a specific or proper order anymore when it comes to weddings. We’re free to do what we want. Whatever will feel right for us and our day.
