Father of the Bride

The father of the bride has his role to play on the wedding day, although where the father of the bride is unable to perform these duties, many of the duties can be taken care of by other people.

The father of the bride has a very significant task of supporting his daughter, the bride, on her big day by helping her to remain calm and keep her nerves under control. It is also equally important that he makes all the arrangements so that his daughter reaches the church on time. It’s the father of the bride who makes it sure that everybody in the bridal party has convenient access to the wedding transportation right on time. And the big one – something he always had in his dreams – walk the bride down the aisle and finally give her away to the groom.

He is also the one who has to pay all the bills and in return has the opportunity to deliver the first wedding speech of the evening – the father of the bride speech.
