Don`t Know Who To Give Me Away!!!

Don`t sweat it, you have many choices.
Why not have your mother give you away.
There is no rule saying it has to be a man.
Another option would be a close relative or friend
You could also go with your fiancees father if you want to as well
Hope this helps.

I had a bride who`s Father was out of the country in the military. The Father of the Groom graciously stepped in. The officiant changed the ceremony a bit. Instead of saying, "who gives this woman in marriage," he said, " two families become one...who stands before us to bring these families together?" It worked out well, and was really beautiful.

Do you have any other male relatives that are significant in your life? I see my father a couple times a year but we`ve never been close, my parents divorced when I was 7, so the father figure in my life has been my uncles and my older brother. So, i`m having my brother give me away. Even a close male friend...someone male who`s been close , it doesn`t have to be a father.

I totally agree with Sarah! Great advice!

Hi Heather,
My daughter is giving me away. No one said it has to be a man giving you away. Or I have heard of the bride walking by her self down the asile then the groom meeting her half way, to symbolize walking together into a new life.
Any way you choose to do it it is your day... Enjoy!!! Good luck

What about your mother? I walked down the aisle with my father and my step father on either side of me. When it came time to give me away...my mother joined my dad and step dad in front of the rev. And all three of them said..."We do." It was beautiful and memorable. Do you have a brother who could walk you down the aisle? You could also ask the best man to do it.

You don`t need anyone at all to "give you away", since you`re "giving yourself" in marriage to your groom. But if you want support for walking down the aisle, how about this: As you come to the aisle`s beginning (behind the guest seating/pews), your groom can come up the aisle to you, & then you process down the aisle together? It`s rather romantic!

An officiant,

I am about to start planning my wedding, and I have lost my relationship with my father several years ago... I am seriously thinking of having my younger brother give me away... He is the only brother i have and i have 3 sisters.... I would really like that because we are really close.... I just hope you make your and your grooms day the way you want it..perfect.. You need to have whoever you want to do it, because it is your special day, best of luck!
