Who walks a widowed grandmother down the aisle at a wedding? Oldest (male) grandchild, or oldest single (male) grandchild?
I'm not who you think I am.

Is that a thing? A grandchild walking his grandmother down the aisle?

Either alone or any male not in the wedding party.
ETA: I am guessing Jewish weddings are different like the MOB.

My understanding is that according to most customs the descendants of the previous marriage would not be at the chuppa at all.

Not understanding. There was only one marriage. Her husband was niftar a few years ago. Now her grandchild is getting married and the grandchild wants her to walk down. Who walks down with her?

I am terrible with grammar and even I know the difference between "a wedding" and "her wedding".

But he said walking the grandmother down, rather than walking down with the grandmother

Walking the daughter, Mom, Grandmother down. No all three are not getting married.  :)

There is no answer because every community is different. Some don't have a "wedding party" or have anyone outside of the bride and groom and their respective escorts walk down the aisle. I mean, it would be tough to describe the pavement outside 770 as an "aisle".

If there is no established custom, which I would assume is the case if there is a question, why not let the grandmother choose who she wants to go with?
