Wedding Entrances For a Lowkey Bride

Maybe walk in to a song that starts slow, then speeds up/gets more energetic?

Entrance to the reception or ceremony? Those are two different things. Many couples in real life do not have a big entrance or any at all, despite what YouTube would lead to believe that everyone and their cousin has one that is big and theatrical. Those couples walk in quietly without any announcements or dance numbers.


Either way, you and fiancé need to get on the same page with a compromise you are both happy with. If walking in to something big and theatrical is stressing you out, that is not ok. You should not be dreading your own wedding day, and stress is just as much a physical issue as it is mental. And you should not be forced so far out of your comfort zone that you are experiencing stress to the level that it’s causing panic. Having opposite personalities is fine but again not to that point. Maybe he can have something more outgoing at a different point in the reception that doesn’t involve you being in the spotlight that you are dreading. Talk to your dj for ideas how to make that work.
In our social circles, reception entrances with music and dancing are not done. The couple walks in quietly from the ceremony and guests expect that. They would be more confused with the YouTube style energetic musical entrance that tend to be the internet standard.

We just walked in to a song, waved, and went straight into our first dance. It doesn’t have to be a big production. You’re the bride and groom walking in — it’s already memorable!
