Ceremony music, what did you walk in to?

jennieweaver1 · May 2011

So I am trying to pinpoint what I want to walk down the aisle to, pre-ceremony music, etc. I'm curious to see what all of you are planning on walking down the aisle to (or have already walked down the aisle with!)

Ohhh, and first dance songs too! My FI is so picky! lol

The wedding processional from "The Sound of Music," and kd lang's version of "So in Love.". I also really liked the MOH/flower girl processional: "Entrance of the Queen of Sheba.". Both processionals were played on the pipe organ.

I was thinking of walking into the theme song from the movie The Princess Bride and exiting to an Avett Brothers song - Swept Away, but we're having a bluegrass band play our ceremony and cocktail hour.

Any suggestions for entrance songs for the bridal party or cake/pie cutting?

I love "Entrance of the Queen of Sheeba", good choice

Mother/Grandmothers came in to Love Divine All Love's Excelling

I haven't even gotten that far yet. I guess I need to get on that too.

Really I just e-mailed the organist and said that we didn't want traditional wedding music, and asked what he really enjoyed playing. He suggested a couple things, I googled, we were square. This doesn't have to be complicated.

For our preceremony music, we used songs from Vitamin String Quartet (pop/rock songs in instrumental version). While people were seating we used Another One Bites the Dust (just to see if anyone would notice, which they did), Bubbly, etc. Parents/grandparents entered to instrumental "Home" (Michael Buble); Bridesmaids to "Wonderful Tonight" (instrumental). I walked in to "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". We exited to "Signed, Sealed Delivered (I'm Yours)" by Stevie Wonder (not instrumental).

Our entire ceremony has vitamin string quartet songs....except the song I am walking with my dad down the aisle is Brandon Heath's "Love never fails"

Thanks everyone, I just was thinking of it randomly the other day and wondered what everyone walked in to. Sounds like some great song choices you guys picked! I'm definitely going to check into a few of these!

I was very traditional with my music:
Mothers and Grandmothers - Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring
Bridal Party - Trumpet Voluntary
Bride - Canon in D
Recessional - Wedding March

First Dance - All My Life by KC&JoJo
Cake Cutting - How Sweet It Is the James Taylor version

Geez, you know, I stressed out about this for awhile and then we ended up not using music at all! I think the only reason it worked for us was it was happening on the beach.

I walked down to "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera. Our first dance was "You and I" by Michael Buble

I am coming in to "smile" by uncle kracker. not very traditional, but it brings the biggest smile to my face and since im a crybaby, it might help me out a bit!

Guys and mothers / grandmothers came to "All I do, I do for you" VSQ style
Girls walked in to "Guardian Angel" Vsq style
I walked in to "Dare you to move" VSQ style
We walked out to "Beautiful Day" VSQ style

While it definitely wasn't traditional, all of our guests loved it!

Checkout "Today" by Joshua Radin. It is simply beautiful! If you pull up the video on youtube or listen to it on Itunes, you should search for the one featuring Pricilla Ahn! Amazing. I will be entering or dancing my first song to this. My FI and I went to see him live and fell in love all over again. It is just that good!
