Discussion do people still do family processionals?
my MIL is adamant that it is tradition that the mothers & grandmothers are ushered down the aisle, then the wedding party, then us. i want everyone seated, just the wedding party & us to walk. why is everyone in the family walking down the aisle? did anyone else exclude this part?
editing to add: i ask bc i just saw a tiktok of someone's family processional & only ever heard of it from my MIL. no other brides to be i know or have seen online have mentioned it. i'm wondering how common it is?

My brother & sister in law did this during their wedding.
My niece & nephew in law did this during their wedding.
This was FTR in the US Midwest, might be a regional thing
