You should go with what feels right for you.

I agree with this post; it's your day and it has to be what feels right in your heart.
BTW: My youngest brother got married 2 months age to a wonderful young lady whose parents happen to be divorced and remarried. Her step-dad has been in her life since she was 7; he has no other kids she is 22 now and her own dad has lived out of state for the past 16 years. Her dad was always supportive $$$ wise but her step-dad was the "hands on go to guy." Her solution...as she entered the chapel her dad entered with her on his arm; mid way down he lifted her veil gave her a kiss and her step dad stood up from that pew and dad handed her off to step dad to complete the walk. It was breathtaking. It symbolically captured their lives
and each time I watch the tape I cry...Tracy ps>>> I was 7 months pregnant
and the only woman wearing flat shoes and a semi-formal dress
at the wedding so there are several reasons why I cry when I watch this video!
