I am having some trouble with music selection. What songs did you choose for your wedding processional/ recessional?

    Hi Brynna! We chose The Prayer as processional and The Wedding March for the recessional song. ❤️

    Concerning Hobbits is one of my favorite songs! And that is such a unique choice! Are you incorporating Lord of the Rings in other parts of your wedding too??

    Processional: Canon in D by Johann Pachelbel
    Recessional: At Last by Etta James

    We created a Spotify playlist and At Last was the next song after Canon in D so it worked out well!

    Ugh we are struggling too!

    originally we planned 'your song' by Elton John as our processional, but we were REALLY struggling for our first dance so we decided to have it as that instead, and didn't really want to use it twice. So, very unsure as of now.

    Some nice ones I've found so far though are:

    Make you feel my love - adele

    crazy love - van morrison

    you are the best thing - ray lamontagne

    My veil and hair will have an elven feel - and the violinist will be playing a series of LoTR songs while everyone is getting in and sitting down. Our wedding is pretty small, if we were doing dancing and having more people I would have definitely put more LoTR in!

    I think I just decided on 'a thousand years' for processional and 'here comes the sun' for recessional. Also wanted 'what a wonderful world'. Maybe I can stick that in there somewhere.

    Good Luck. That was HARD for me to decide!!

    The groomsmen are walking into the Star Wars theme (it’s a surprise to my fiancé- he loves Star Wars). The bridesmaids are walking down to an instrumental version of Don’t Stop Believing.

    I am walking down to an instrumental version of Lynyrd Skynrd’s “Simple Man” (trust me, I realize it’s unconventional, but it was my deceased dad’s favorite song, so in this way both my parents are “walking” my down the aisle.

    Our recessional is Mr. Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra (FH had this song planned literally before we planned anything else 😀)
