One of the most sentimental moments of a wedding is when the bride is walked down the aisle by her father, who is guiding her to the next phase of her life. The age old tradition of fathers giving away their daughters didn't start out as a sentimental gesture, however. In fact, it was more of a business transaction than a special moment between parent and child. Now, it has evolved into the perfect photographic moment- usually completed with (happy) tears from both the Bride and her Father!
