Once all of the familiy members and guests have arrived and are seated, first the groom and groomsmen make their procession to the front. Then the bridal party commences and all heads turn towards their route and everyone rises in anticipation of the entrance of the bride.

Your choice of escort to accompany you in contemporary times is now quite varied. You could be:

• Escorted by your father and/or mother, a traditional choice.
• Escorted by your father and step-father, increasingly popular.
• Escorted by your brother.
• Escorted by your children.
• Escorted by a close friend, in lieu of absent or deceased family members.
• Escorted by your groom, conveying equality as you walk down the aisle together.
• Unescorted, demonstrating a strong statement of independence.

Your choice of escort is a high honour that you can bestow upon someone special in your life and provides you with an opportunity to express your gratitude towards them.
