Is it appropriate for dad to walk daughter down the aisle at vow renewal?
Initially our wedding wasn't something that I had dreamed about, but was very thankful that his family pitched in as much as they did. During our 2nd and 3rd year of marriage it was pretty rough, and thankfully my family had the opportunity to help us out then, even though they didn't agree with us getting married so quickly.
Due to my parents not being involved with our wedding, and my father not being there to walk me down the aisle, how appropriate would it be to have him there to do that? Or should it just be a basic renewal, and we can recognize them more so at the party afterwards?

Dear KllyHghs,
This really shouldn't appear to be a wedding and reception. So, there shouldn't be any escorting by your father. If there is escorting and an aisle, the children usually accompany perhaps the wife or the couple. But, to be honest, this is just a simple ceremony to restate your vows and is not a wedding like ceremony. It is more of an anniversary party.
