Give Away the Bride/Playing With

Basic Trope: The bride's father walks her down the aisle.
 * Played Straight: Alice's father walks her down the aisle.
 * Exaggerated:
 * Alice is surrounded by all her male relatives.
 * Alice walks up with both of her parents.
 * Justified:
 * Alice and Bob are marrying in a time or place where women were considered property, and the marriage is not valid without her father's approval.
 * Alice is injured or disabled, and needs help getting to the altar.
 * It's tradition.
 * Inverted:
 * Alice walks her father up to the altar when he marries another woman.
 * Alice walks to the altar alone.
 * Alice is led to the altar by her mother.
 * Gender Inverted: Bob is walked down the aisle by his mother, or his father, or both.
 * Subverted:
 * Alice is not walked down the aisle by her father...
 * Alice and Bob walk down the aisle together.
 * Double Subverted:
 * But by another male relative, or by a friend, or even Bob.
 * Guided by both sets of parents, as in a Jewish wedding.
 * Deconstructed: May be considered anachronistic and sexist in some circles.
 * Reconstructed: Alice's father respects her wishes regarding the act. If she considers it Values Dissonance, then he won't force the issue on the grounds that it's tradition.
 * Parodied: Alice's father is a feeble old man, and though he tries to walk Alice down the aisle as per tradition, he ends up being walked by Alice halfway through.
 * Lampshaded: "Daddy, will you walk me down the aisle?"
 * Averted:
 * Alice is not walked down the aisle by anyone, if there even is an aisle where she and Bob are marrying.
 * This is not the tradition in this particular setting.
 * Enforced: Small Reference Pools, The Coconut Effect
 * Invoked: Alice and Bob announce their engagement, and Charles (her father) asks if she'd like him to walk her down the aisle.
 * Defied: Alice says no, or Charles doesn't even bring it up.
 * Discussed:
 * Conversed: "In modern times, not everyone is willing to do this."
 * Played For Laughs: Alice's father carries a shotgun.
 * Played For Drama: Almost always is.
