Reception entrance

Katherine, on April 24, 2021 at 9:16 AM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 10
Has anyone done a slow song for the couple's entrance? I was thinking the bridesmaids and groomsmen men come in to something upbeat and fun, then a slow down for us to add a little drama to the entrance. I haven't seen that in any discussion question. Am I completely alone in this idea?

    I didn’t at my own wedding but I like the idea. Gives some added personality to your wedding. Do you have any ideas of what dramatic/slow song to use?

    We have a special connection to Selena as to how we met, so I wanted "I could fall in love" by Selena

    Oh, I love that song. I think it could definitely work. You can always test it out at the rehearsal dinner if you want but I feel like that is definitely a song that will make it “your wedding.”

    Would you just go straight into your first dance?

    Most people walk in, no music at all, not GM or BM or couple. You do what you want. But it might get a little much with dances. And you might want to do a short bit, and end in position to do your first dance. Be announced as husband and wife, and do your first dance directly. Eliminate the extra transition of seating then getting up again after. It is in transitions that people get itchy.

    Hello Kath.
    I attended a wedding a few years ago, where the processional song was "I'm yours" by Jason Mraz but it was a "piano cover",no lyrics, it sounded more dramatic than fun or relax.There's nothing wrong with your idea of having a littledrama to your entrance.

    You could start playing your first dance song. Then you could be announced, walk in, and finish it with your first dance. That would flow really nicely and be very cool. Most weddings i've been to recently the couple does the first dance right away anyway!
