The traditional role of the father of the bride is to walk you down the aisle and give you away at the ceremony, and for most dads this will be more than enough for him to do! But if your dad wants a bit more involvement, here are a few things that he may be able to do.
- Looking for potential wedding suppliers.
- Contributing to the wedding budget.
- Putting together the family guest list, and helping with trimming the guest list if needed.
- Finding the perfect outfit and arranging suit hire if necessary.
- Walking you down the aisle
- Giving a simple speech, thanking everyone for coming, proposing a toast and introducing the groom to say a few words.
- Traveling to the ceremony you.
- Standing in the receiving line if there is one.
- Sitting at the top table with the bride and groom, at the reception.
