I can only assume that the connection that you find so distasteful between not taking his last name, and dad not walking her down the aisle, is the "giving away the bride" thing?

Frankly, I see no reason that she can't have dad walk her down the aisle as a show of support, even if he isn't "giving" her away to someone. Hell, have the whole family march her down the aisle if that's what she wants. It's traditional to include dad in the event. Maybe she just wants a more traditional ceremony. Did you ask her?

I do think she should have made her wishes clear at some earlier point, though.

This. It doesn't have to be about giving "property," but rather about someone you love seeing you into another phase of your life. And sure, in that case it doesn't have to be limited to the dad but there's nothing wrong with it either.

Yeah this. And I say this as someone who is very feminist but definitely wants my dad to walk me down the aisle. It's not because he "owns" me and in fact he's fairly liberal and has always been great at respecting my autonomy and has never treated me like his property in anyway (one of many reasons I love him). It's because he's one of the most important people in my life and I want him to be part of it in this way.

Traditions aren't all bad. Some have really skeevy origins but they can be treated in an entirely different way in the modern world. I like some traditions and eschew others and basically it's up for each individual getting married how they want their wedding to go.

I'll agree with this! (not any of the anons above)
