Red face walk down the aisle

Hi Everyone!
i need your help deciding who i should ask to walk me down the aisle. I was raised by my grandparents and until i was a teenager had never meet my father. My grandfather was always there for me and taught me everything. My father and i have a wonderful relationship now and i know he would love to walk me down the aisle because he missed out on all the other major turning points in my life. Im afraid if i ask one the other would be offened. Any suggestions??

I agree. I think it would be great to have both of them walk you down the isle. It would really show the love and respect you have of these two men. And noone feels hurt

YEp the easiest way to decide would to be have both and lots of women have more then one man walk them down the aisle.

just to repeat what every one else has said, AND i did have two people walk me down. it didn't make it any more challenging (hey, i had to walk down stairs--the extra arms helped w/ balancing!!) than just one person. i say if you have a good relationship w/ your father now, but still want to honor your gfather... go for it w/ both. or you could have the one hand you over to the other, say your gfather walk you halfway and "hadn you off" to your father to walk the rest of the way.
by the way, welcome to pash!!!!

I'm with the others - have them both walk you down the aisle.

And welcome to Pash!

I like the idea of one of them handing you off to the other halfway down the aisle. You could have your grandfather walk you down the first half, to represent the first half of your life, and your father walk you down the second half and hand you off to your FH. And, they would each have some special 'alone' time with you instead of feeling like they were sharing you? Either way.

Welcome to Pash!!

I agree, both should walk you down the aisle. You have a good relationship with your father despite the past. Your grandfather has been there for you. Your wedding is the perfect opportunity to honor them both as you make a new beginning. I think walking with them both at your side or with each taking turns are both good ideas. If it were me, I would probably choose having them both walk me down all the way.

BTW, Welcome to Pash!

We'd love it if you start a thread in the Bridal Journals section and tell us more about yourself, your engagement, and your wedding.
