Processional Songs for small bridal party

Tina, on June 5, 2017 at 8:36 AM Posted in Planning 0 7

Hello! Our bridal party is small, so I was wondering if there should be 2 different songs for the processional? Or should it just be 1 song? Those walking down the aisle include officiant, groom, groom's parents together, best man/ring bearer, matron of honor, flower girl, bride. Thanks!

    I also have a small BP and we are just doing one song. We're having the groom, groom's parents, MOH and BM, and me with my dad. I should also mention that we don't have very far to walk, so that's another reason I'm only doing one song.

    Either way. I have a small WP also but am having two songs because I wanted the pause between the two to signal that the bride was processing.

    Traditionally everyone but the bride walks in to one song. If need be your DJ can simply loop the song. There is a pause at which point your officiant will ask everyone to "please rise" or "remain seated". The bride then walks in to her own song, be it "Here Comes the Bride" or the song of her choosing. Best wishes!

    Doesn't seem short to me. We had 3 couples (groomsmaid and groomsmen) enter at the same time and then us. We used MARRY/YOU WEDDING SONG (Violin/Piano Mashup) and it timed out perfectly (without a real rehearsal) because we walked in just as the "Here Comes The Bride" part was coming on so I was happy about that.

    We have a pretty small wp: ring bearer, fg, moh, bm, 2 brides and a best woman. We tried it with two different songs and didn't like it at all so we will just be doing one song. Plus no one has far to walk

    We're trying with 1 song. We have a small destination wedding, and no DJ to fade in/out music.. so that was my deciding factor. We have 3 bridesmaids/groomemen, no ring bearer or flower girl, groom will walk in with his parents. Song is about 3 1/2 minutes, so hoping we will be OK! We won't really know how long our walkway is until we arrive at destination :/

    We are having one song for bridal party, "Thousand years" by Cristina Perrie and I am walking down to the remake of "Somewhere over the rainbow"
