indiechick   10 #1 Posted July 22, 2011 Little confused So partner and I have to meet in ceremony room to check details. Does everyone else then just come in with us in there? If we come back out all the guests will have already seen us wont they, so no point in my Dad then walking me in is there? How does it work?

Jobean   10 #2 Posted July 22, 2011 when I went to my friends this is what happened:  All your guests sit and wait in the holding area outside the ceremony rooms, they call your name and you and your groom go in and sign the stuff. You (the bride) then have the choice to come back out and all your guests go in. You can then do the walk in with your dad!  As you point out though-yeah everyone does see you including your groom!  Its a bit silly really as when we asked about it when they go out to venues they always do it seperate-the groom half an hour before ceremony and the bride 5 mins before. Why they can't have a room to do that there I don't know! Led to us forking out for a venue! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ade1987 Â Â 10 #3 Posted July 27, 2011 Hi myself and my partner booked our wedding yesterday at the Sheffield Registry Office ( town hall ) for August next year and after reading all the print it said that me and the groom have to go into a separate room to sign papers, I was a bit miffed as i thought the groom wasnt allowed to see you until you walk down the isle and also i want my dad to give me away why they carnt do this separatly il never know but i dont think its right. Even though after signing the papers i can still walk in with my dad it wont be the same as if the groom had never seen me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Jayemm   10 #4 Posted July 31, 2011 Its exactly as Jobean says, however its fine on the day.  To get the tradition feel, and make your grand entrance, why not make sure the groom is already inside the register office with the guests, (assuming Sheffield, its a wonderful place to make an entrance in) then you walk in last with your father and bridesmaids, rather than meeting outside as so many seem to do?

natzzz   10 #6 Posted July 31, 2011 My husband and I got married at the registry office on Monday  It did bother me during the run up that he would see me beforehand but once the time came I can honestly say it didn't bother me. He was waiting for me inside with guests and we have a few mins together before going in to do the final details. He then stayed in the room and the guests were invited in. Me, my Dad, Page-boy and Flower girl all waited outside the room till the music started, my Dad then walked me down the aisle.  It was perfect but I could have got married at Sheffield Council tip and I wouldn't have cared!  Enjoy your big day x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I'm not that bothered really, but know it would mean a lot to my Dad to walk me in. I just wasn't sure it would work with everyone having seen me beforehand, but they way you describe it makes it clear it can work. So thank you, I will get my Dad to walk me in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
