My mother is soon to be remarried. Her father (my grandfather) passed away almost 20 years ago. My sister and I will be the ones to walk her down the aisle. We are not sure what to say instead of the typical "Who gives this bride away?". We are both walking on each side, but it's not like we are giving her. More like sharing! How do we change the wording or incorporate this into the ceremony?
No one is really 'given away" any longer, especially a woman who has been married before. Many officiants simply leave that out. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
