MoH and Best man Songs?

Diana Smith

Do the maid of honor and best man walk down the aisle to the same precessional music I do? Someone help me I'm so confused. If they don't and suggestions on songs for them to walk to?

Usually, there is a piece of music for the wedding party (and groom if he's not already at the front) to process to and then the bride comes down to separate music.  However, if you want to use the same piece for everyone, you certainly can.

I don't really want to use the same piece.. Do you know of any good songs for both the groom and the wedding party?

What piece/song are you planning to walk to? That will help with suggestions for the other...

Pachelbel's Canon D the piano version. If you go onto itunes its the first one.

If you're looking for other classical pieces to pair with it, Jesu Joy of Man Desiring would be great.

I agree with PP, Jesu Joy (by Bach) sounds great as a piano solo and pairs nicely with Pachelbel.  Some other suggestions:  Bach's "Air" from Orchestral Suite #3 (sometimes called "Air on the G String"), Handel's "Air" from "Water Music", or Purcell's "Trumpet Voluntary".  Piano arrangements are available for all.

You could also ask your pianist for suggestions - he/she might know a particular piece very well.
