Who should walk me down the aisle?

I am having a small wedding of about 50 people. I am not having a wedding party, and my fiance is not walking down the aisle. My father passed away, and I do not have a brother. Who should walk me down the aisle or should I walk down alone?

You could walk alone or ask any family member or friend to escourt you; male or female.

In many of the weddings I officiate, the bride will walk down the aisle alone. Sometimes I see the groom will walk from the altar as the bride walks from the chapel door - the idea is that he will meet her midway, then escort her to the altar. If an escort is important to you, anyone can walk you down the aisle - even your groom's dad.
