Processional Music

Daizy106

I just have a simple question, I am putting together my wedding program and I was unsure if the parents of the bride and bridal party (bridesmaids and groomsmen) Do they all walk down to the same song?

[QUOTE]Jewish families traditionally process together.  At most other weddings, parents are seated quietly before the bridal party processional begins, with the MOB being seated last.

My mom will be walking me down the aisle. My father passed away when I was very young. So how does this work- I was picturing that the my fiance's parents would walk down first, then my aunt and grandmother, and then the bridal party. and then my mother and i. does that sound right?

I think traditionally grandparents are seated before the parents. So your FMIL would be seated just before your mother... except since she is walking with you, your BMs and GM would process in after your FMIL and before you and your mother. As far as the music, it can go either way using one song or clips of different songs for the whole processional. One deciding factor is if your ceremony is in a church, as it may be dictated to an extent by them.
