Music Selections
Ok I have a horrible time making decisions.. What are good entrance songs for the bridal party? I listened to songs on Wedding Wire but still do not know what to pick. I want a upbeat but classy song. Any suggestions? What did you pick? Thanks!!

We've had a lot of people use "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay. Another fun one is "Maybe We Were Made For Each Other" by Jack's Mannequin:

You can hear the playlist we have set up for ideas here:

It really depends on what kind of energy you want and the personalities of the wedding party. I can say from experience that low key classical or jazz songs are boring to the guests. I suggest you ask your DJ who may or may not be creative in this process to offer you several ideas. The entrance is the opening scene to your wedding and sets the tone.
Using individual songs cued at hot spots can create a lot of excitment but this isn't something that allot of deejays are capable of doing. i would ask your DJ before you end up getting shoddy results.

I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas
Pump It - Black Eyed Peas
You Really Got Me - Van Halen
We Will Rock You - Queen
Gimme All Your Lovin' - ZZ Top
Get Ready For This - 2 Unlimited
Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) - C C Music Factory
Straight To Number One (Fast Mambo Version) - Touch and Go
Ring of Fire - Johnny Cash
I Got You (I Feel Good) - James Brown
Theme from Hawaii Five-O


May your wedding day be filled with laughter and special memories!

Somewhere over the rainbow, a touching song to play for the Bride and Groom as they leave the alter.
