Bridesmaids walking

Personally, I would just have 1 song for all the bridal party. Are his parents divorced? If they are still together, I'd probably have them walk down together and maybe you can have a different song for them and the another for the bridal party. Separate songs for everyone can sound choppy and be a little confusing for guests. I typically take the music switch to mean the bride is coming.

View Quoted Comment Yes, they are divorced and the dad is remarried to a woman who is very dramatic and just full of her self I really want to do the mom and dad walk down together because I don't think my fiance's brother wants to be the best man maybe the groomsman but I don't think the best man.... But yea his dad's new wife is why I have them walking seperate...

View Quoted Comment Gotcha. That makes sense then. I would maybe give 1 song for everyone and a different one for you as the bride. Is your fiance doing a mother/son dance? That's a good way to honor her.

View Quoted Comment Ok, and do you have any song suggestions? Sorry I just have like 18 days and I'm trying to make sure everything is together so I can stop stressing cause I'm bad about worrying to much and stressing about it lol.

Simpler is almost always better. I wouldn't try to do different songs for each person/pair in the processional. That will sound chaotic (and might actually be chaotic, depending on who's doing the music). One song for the wedding party and one for the bride is customary. You don't have to stick to that of course, but try to use fewer rather than more songs.

I also wouldn't have each person/pair walk all the way down those stairs before the next person/pair starts. That could end up being a really long processional (and when guests are sitting and waiting, I promise, 60 seconds feels long). Just have each person/pair start about a few seconds after the one in front.

I agree that one song for the whole bridal party and another for you - otherwise I don't think you'll hear enough of any of the songs for this to be worthwhile. The aisle walk tends to be a LOT shorter than you think and people walk more quickly on the day since they're nervous.

Also, I notice you say you're feeling stressed - and of course you are! But please don't. No one will really remember what they walked in to, I promise

View Quoted Comment Haha don't worry about it! Maybe since you're doing Star Wars and Harry Potter, you could do like....the Imperial March or something from Harry Potter? Maybe do one for the wedding party and then another for you.

One song for everyone. Maybe it’s regional, but I have never seen the groomsmen enter the ceremony down the aisle with bridesmaids or separate. They often do double duty as ushers but even in that case, they will enter after the groom from the sideline without their own music. But they will escort bridesmaids down the aisle after the ceremony is over and you and your new spouse have already exited.

One song for the bridal party - switching between everyone will be a nightmare. I would do one song for the parents being seated (all of them), one song for the bridal party, and one song for you.

View Quoted Comment Only problem is both his parents are in the wedding and due to personal reasons we aren't walking my parents down.

One song for parents and bridal party, one song for you. I am 56, been to many many MANY weddings and I have never seen a separate song for parents.

Your idea is thoughtful, but you should choose one song for the sake of timing and flow.

Definitely jam out to all those songs during the reception!

View Quoted Comment We are but my song is different

View Quoted Comment I like that!

View Quoted Comment Thank you! I’ve just been overwhelmed with 3 days left lol!
