If Father won't walk you down the aisle, Is it ok to ask your future father-in-law? - BridalTweet Wedding Forum & Vendor Directory2024-03-28T23:34:43Zhttps://www.bridaltweet.com/forum/topics/if-father-wont-walk-you-down?commentId=3145964%3AComment%3A150114&feed=yes&xn_auth=noI would definately discuss th…tag:www.bridaltweet.com,2010-05-25:3145964:Comment:1720482010-05-25T16:45:39.496ZCOLLEZIONE FORTUNA FASHION BOUTIhttps://www.bridaltweet.com/profile/collezionefortunahashionboutique
I would definately discuss this openly with your family before you ask your future Father-In-Law to Walk you down the isle. This must be hurtful for your Father not wanting to do this. Is there any particular reason why? This is something you have to discuss with your Father personally. If he completely refuses adamantly and won't change his mind I would certainly ask someone else. Is there an Uncle on your Dad's side that would walk you down the isle?? I would consider this first, or a…

Is there an Uncle on your Dad's side that would walk you down the isle?? I would consider this first, or a Brother(if you have one) or your Mother and Step -Dad together...FIRST...if this isn't a possibility then ask your Future Father-In_law. The important issue is to have all family members feel comfortable with this, especially if your Father will be attending the wedding. Good luck!

Talk to your family first about this. Make sure that there is not someone that has played an important role in your life that would love to walk you down the aisle and give you away. If no one wants to step up to the plate, then ask yourself if you are comfortable with having his father walk you down. If you are not, there is nothing wrong with walking down by yourself, as a Strong, Confident and Independent woman, ready to give yourself to your groom.<br />

Hi Christina<br />
if your dad is refusing to walk you down the aisle then why not get your mum to do it, i'm sure she would be proud to do it.<br />
Brothers can do it either.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps.<br />

Why not your mom? There is no set rule that the person giving the bride away has to be male. Mothers do it all the time. I've even seen it where uncles that the bride is particularly close to give brides away. And for brides that have children, I've seen the bride's own son give her away. I'm sorry that your dad is behaving this way. I know it must put a damper on your spirits and planning. My first preference would be for your mom to give you away.

Not that there is something wrong with having your fiance's dad walk you down the aisle, but I personally would not do that. The point of the bride being walked down the aisle is a tradition of approval and handing the brides hand over in marriage, and because of this, I would suggest maybe to have your brother, or a very close relative do this for you, rather than his dad. It just doesnt make much sense for his dad to do it, when it should be someone you knew all your life, or most of it, to…

I hope this makes sense, but either way its just my opinion, and your day should be your way.<br />

I agree completely with Phyllis. If at all possible you should have a close family member give you away.<br />
Like Phyllis said if you already live on your own then there is absolutely nothing wrong with you walking down the aisle by yourself.<br />
I'm so sorry to hear that your father is unwilling to do this for you. Hopefully you can work things out with him before the wedding.<br />
<br />
Congratulations and best wishes to you.<br />

You know, there is no rule that says you have to be walked down the aisle. Many brides, especially those who have already been married before, often walk down the aisle by themselves.<br />
<br />
The purpose of someone walking the bride down the aisle is to "give her away." Since you've already been out on your own, your father isn't giving you away.<br />

<br />
Do you have children? It's equally possible for them to walk you down the aisle since you would be joining all of the members of your immediate family (your children if there are any) with your new husband. Or, if your children are older, you can have your eldest child walk you.<br />
<br />
You even can have your mother give you away or an uncle or some other male family members.<br />
<br />
While it's nice to honor your fiance's father, he can't "give you away" because technically, you're not his to give.<br />
<br />
It's just a thought. Whatever you choose to do is fine. It's your wedding.<br />
<br />
I'm just sorry that your father doesn't want to participate in walking you down the aisle.<br />
<br />
Much happiness!<br />

No what i meant is that My Father is walking my future-sister-in-law down the aisle when my brother gets married instead of walking me his only daughter down the aisle. I am trying to do what i feel is best, i love my future-father-in-law but i don't want to hurt my father either. This is tearing me apart inside not knowing who to have walk me down the aisle on my most important day.
