Okay it's a little larger than most parties but if that's what you want by all means have it. I would suggest finding an instrumental version of the song just so that the bridal party can get down with that on loop and the guests don't go good lord is that song starting again. They played the same song four times at my stepsister's wedding and it literally was starting to make folks grind their teeth. Play the lyrics when it gets closer to you walking down the aisle. You can test the timing about a week or two before the wedding to get the number of plays right. Good luck and congrats.
Reply:It should not matter if it is unusual or not my dear, because this is a day that you and your groom to be will remember forever and it should be just the way you picture it to be. This is a special day and no one else's opinion should matter! Trust me I am getting married in September and throughout this planning process I have learned that these memories will be yours alone and no one else's so you should make it as memorable as you can! Best of luck!
Reply:Go for it.
Reply:Not if youre rich!
Reply:...It's your day....make it as special as you like...one of my co-workers attended a relatives wedding that had 40 people in her party...True, true true....I saw the invite....Good luck!
Reply:If it's the way you want it, go for it.





Um, not a good idea to put everyone's first and last names on here-psycho freaks, y know? Best wishes on your special day!
Reply:You really should not put your full names on the Internet like this, but...I've never heard of the cooks walking down the aisle....but this is your wedding, and I think your family will feel really special all walking down the aisle in front of you. The other person really does have a point--if there is too much going on, your moment won't be quite as special becasue there are so many distractions from you.
Reply:It is sort of unusual but can be done with a very good coordinator guiding everyone. I do agree with others that it will be very busy and hopefully the church/venue isn’t small. If you are uncomfortable with so many people, some of the men can be ushers who will lead guests to theirs seats, pass out programs etc. At a family members wedding she had teenage girls light the candles and pull out the aisle runner. Maybe someone can be the reception mc also. In the end it is what you want, I have a big family also so I understand wanting to include everyone.





Oh also, as said earlier you may not want to include full names on here.
Reply:It will be a HUGE undertaking to coordinate together with all these people. How many will be in the audience? Personally, I think having this many people will take attention away from you and your groom. There will be too much to focus on instead of you (the bride) being the center of attention. Having this many people in the wedding party will also drastically increase the cost.





If you feel you would like to downsize here are some ideas. Are the groomsmen also doubling as ushers? If not, you may could use some as ushers and delete some of the bridesmaids if possible. Also, the more children you have in a wedding party, the more chaotic it will probably be and you currently have 7.





It is a lot to digest. Think about it and your budget. Do what makes you happy. When it is all over you will say why did I stress over this so much. You are marrying the love of your life and that is all that matters. Good Luck and Congratulations!
Reply:Its your wedding !!!


and if your husband to be does not mind go for it and enjoy yourself and have lots of fun!!!!!!!!!!!!





best wishes on your upcoming wedding!!!!!
Reply:You can have as many people walk you down the isle as you want. I'm assuming you will have the bridesmaids partner up with the groomsmen to walk in and maybe have the jr bridesmaids walk in together as well. I dont know if there is no best man or you just forgot to include him. I really like the fact that your father's sons are walking you down the isle in his place, that's really nice.
Reply:Good luck with coordinating! This is a massive undertaking! But it is ok to do this. Just keep in mind that the size of your wedding party is one factor to indicate how formal your wedding will be. So in this case, you should have a very formal, proper wedding. From the comments about showing off wealth, you are probably doing this anyway.
Reply:It's your day, I don't think it matters who walks down the aisle in front of you, is the song long enough for everyone to make it down front before the song is over. I just know generally the only people who walk in with the music is the bridal party everyone else is already seated, but like I said it's your day it shouldn't matter what others think.
Reply:Well now that certainly is a crowd.... I think it might be better if the groomsmen took their places at the front of the church with the groom instead of stomping down the aisle.. that's usually reserved for the bride and her attendants :)





And the mother of the bride is usually the last guest seated.. other than that.. go for the gusto... if all these people are important to you they should be there.. but in all this crowd.. where is the GROOM? Poor guy got forgotten!
Reply:Unusual, but not unheard of. Enjoy your day!
