Why would one of Jesus' name be called the everlasting Father? How can that not imply the father of sons and daughters? How can any father's sons and daughters be their bride? Prove that with a real world example. IOW, why use real world imagery then contradict what it would look like in the real world by having it meaning something that doesn't even remotely match reality in the real world?
He is an immortal/everlasting Father in his own right:
Joh_13:33
Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
We are his children so he is our Father...not God the Father but God the Son who is our father because we are his "little children".
BTW, I may have to change my view in regards to the OP since the OP assumes the church is the bride and that the bride is then seen descending to the earth, Revelation 19:11, 14. Obviously, it is still meaning the church. That fact doesn't change. But is the church meaning the bride? That's the million dollar question.
The bride of Christ is written as a singular female however she is actually composed of a huge number of men and women (Christians). So is there one bride or many? The many form a singular. It is the same way with the Trinity. Three composing a single God does not equal 3 Gods despite that there are three of them in the Trinity. The three form a singular God.
Christians (the Church) are the bride/wife:
Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
Eph 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Eph 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
Eph 5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
Eph 5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
Eph 5:31
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Eph 5:32 This is a great mystery: but
I speak concerning Christ and the church.
Here we are told plainly that the example of a man and his wife being of one flesh is about Christ and the church.
Rom 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ;
that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God
Here again it is Christians that will marry Christ who was raised from the dead.
2Co 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for
I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
Spoken to Christians, the church, being presented as Virgins in a spiritual sense to one Husband who is Christ.
Rev 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Rev_17:18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
If a woman, "Babylon", called a city can represent a group of unsaved people then certainly the bride of Christ, a group of saved people, can be represented as a city, "New Jerusalem", as well.
