My problem was I could not decide on who should be my maid of honor. So to avoid hurt feelings, I chose to have both. My dilema now is who walks alone, should they both or should I have the one I've known the longest walk by herself?? Edited by mrsmoose091308 on 07/29/2007 01:52 PM

We go by the theme "your way, your day" around here. So however you decide to do it, its the right way....Now if you would like an idea, I had both, so My Maid of Honor walked with the best man (groom's brother), and the matron of honor simply walked with another groomsman (who happened to be her husband-and my husband's very dear friend) So it can also depend on if you want the matron of honor's husband in the wedding (per your fiance's choice). I wouldn't worry about someone's feelings being hurt, like I said, however you decide to do it is okay!
Is there a tradition for one of them to walk alone or with someone?

My Matron's husband is a friend of my husbands', however he is not in the bridal party. I don't think there is a tradition(or none that I could find) on who should walk alone or who should come down first before the bride.

On the way out the maid and matron of honor can both exit with the bestman. Or you can have the maid and matron walk down togethor. Edited by housewife147 on 07/29/2007 03:56 PM
