[quote=Anonymous]I hated this idea, too. I wanted to follow the official Catholic rite (that I have literally never actually seen done at any Catholic wedding), which has the bride and groom approach the altar together. But, I knew that the walking down the aisle thing was important to my parents, so we ended up each walking in with both of our parents. I felt like since he was being escorted as well, it took away a bit of the "giving the bride away" symbolism and made it feel a bit more like a recognition of just the fact that our parents had helped us to grow into the two adults who were joining together (or at least I could tell myself that it meant that). Weirdly, my dad was cool with that, but my mom fought me on it - she really wanted to watch my dad and only my dad escort me down the aisle, but she got so many compliments on it after the ceremony that by the end of the reception she was practically acting like it had been her idea. :) [/quote]
