What Order Should I Have My Bridal Party Walk?
The order in which the bridal party walks is purely preference. There are many combinations. Most of them fit within the Traditional Order. You are welcome to have your coordinator choose what order as well. You’ll want to shape your Bridal Party around the Traditional Order - most couples do not have the Officiant, Groom & Parents walk.
For an example, I’ll list the full order of a full traditional bridal party:
Officiant - Groom - Parents - Groomsmen & Bridesmaids (Often coupled together) - Rings bearers - Flower Girls - Bride
(Maid of Honor & Best Man are at the end of the Groomsmen & Bridesmaids)
Please keep in mind most couples only use a much simpler order:
Groomsmen & Bridesmaids - Flower Girls - Bride
