how about your wife’s family simchis
I walked down the aisle with my wife (and unborn son) at her sister’s wedding.

Why not?
What exactly is the question or the problem?
Did everybody wish you “b’shaa tova”
I don’t remember, it was quite a while ago.
In any event, it’s not like we announced it at the wedding (we would never upstage someone else’s wedding like that). We were already eight months along and just about everyone there already knew about it long before.

where were the parents?
i’m sure it felt very good when everyone saw you walking next to your pregnant wife.
It had nothing to do with whether it made me feel good or not. I did it because my sister-in-law wanted it and it was her wedding. End of story.
where were the parents?
I don’t understand your question. Her parents (my in-laws) were there. They walked down with her later.

did you feel confortable going down that capet in back of your inlaws? was it only you two,the couple?) or any other married siblings from the family?

Since my in-laws were the parents of the bride, they walked in last (as is customary). As such we walked in ahead of them.
The chosson went first with his mother, then various grandparents and siblings of the chosson and kallah (including us) and then the kallah.
I still don’t see what the issue here is. If you think I did something wrong, just come out and say it.

P.S. Please learn to use the “em” tag, or at least put quotes around the part you are quoting from another poster. Your posts are difficult to read.

Is there a problem with attending a family simcha? Are you asking attending at what expense?

We all think you must have done something wrong, we’re just trying to figure out what. 🙂 Please note the smiley. I’m joking. 🙂
Why do women besides the kallah and the mothers walk down anyway? Isnt that a total lack of tznius? Who needs to see the sisters cousins friends and grandmothers? Theres no mekor for any of them (besides the mothers) to walk down the aisle.
Moshe, thanks for articulating. I dont express an opinion.
Never mind that there is no mechitza between the men and women! Women are in plain sight!
In fact I think women shouldn’t even be invited to the wedding (other than the kallah)
You can go even further… you don’t need the kallah there either. Have her appoint her father as a shliach to accept kiddushin for her. Then she doesn’t have to be there at all.
After the wedding, the father can then drive the kallah to her new husband’s apartment (thus completing the nisuin) in total privacy and with complete tznius. 🙂

Wolf. Excellent suggestion. Would be a defacto method of enforcing many of the “wedding takanos”.
