Traditionally the groom waited at the top of the aisle for his bride and attendants followed the bride. All other guests and family members will be seated.<\/p>\n<p>However, it&#8217;s common for modern couples or LGBTQI+ couples to shake this up. For example, some couples choose to do a first look before walking down the aisle together. Other couples may switch traditional roles and walk in one by one with their parents. The wedding party attendants could walk in front of or behind the bride\/groom. It really comes down to personal preference.<\/p>\n<p>You could even both be waiting at the top of the aisle as your guests arrive for a brand-new take on the wedding entrance. Don&#8217;t be afraid to make new traditions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-342819\" src=\"https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding Order Service Booklet Floral Bowtie &amp; Belle Photography\" width=\"750\" height=\"1125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography.jpg 750w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography-150x225.jpg 150w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography-604x906.jpg 604w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2023\/05\/Wedding-Order-Service-Booklet-Floral-Bowtie-Belle-Photography-60x90.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/> Photo: Bowtie &amp; Belle Photography via <a href=\"https:\/\/wedissimo.com\/blog\/fun-late-summer-outdoor-farm-wedding\/\">Fun Late Summer Outdoor Farm Wedding<\/a> Stationery: <a href=\"https:\/\/catherineannlewis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Catherine Lewis Design<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"infoBox infoBox--tick theme--green\"><p class=\"h2\"><\/p><\/p>\n<p>So there you have it.
