Bridal entrance songs!

126 replies

Help me find the perfect bridal entrance song for my wedding. So far I'm thinking one of these:

  1. Ben E. King - Stand by me
  2. Louis Armstrong - what a wonderful world
  3. Eva Cassidy - Songbird
  4. Christina Perry - A thousand years

Opinions? Any other suggestions?

We went to a wedding last year & bride came in to The Butterfly Waltz by Brian Crain. I've never heard of it before but apparently it was used in Twilight. Anyway, it was lovely.

They came to to this.... which was fab Smile

I had Greatest Day by Take That.

April- do you think?? I do love that song so much although can't trust myself not to sob the entire way down the aisle!!

At Last, Etta James

We had Easter Hymn from Cavalleiria Rusticana and Trumpet Voluntary. We had wanted God Only Knows by the Hollies but the first line is "I may not always love you" so we decided against it!

applesauce1 · 11/09/2018 22:49

I walked down the aisle to the instrumental version of A Thousand Years by the Piano Guys. We had our first dance to the Christina Perry version.

motortroll · 11/09/2018 22:57

I had There she goes by The Las

And nice day for a white wedding by Billy Idol at the end!

motortroll · 11/09/2018 23:00

@hidengosqueak snap!

My husband would have loved run to the hills!! We had a very specific list for the mosh pit disco afterwards!

FrankiesKnuckle · 11/09/2018 23:02

We had primal scream movin on up going in and Oasis slide away walking out.

Clickncollect · 11/09/2018 23:13

I wanted Let Go by Frou Frou but there was no cd facility in our Church.
Beautiful song!

Let's get married by the Proclaimers. We're Scottish, if that's not obvious Smile

HappyEverIftar · 12/09/2018 05:11

I got married in Vegas and walked down the aisle to Elvis' Can't help falling in love. Recessional was the Moulin Rouge version of Your Song.

stellabird · 12/09/2018 05:15

I walked down to " I do I do I do", by ABBA.

Limpshade · 12/09/2018 05:40

I had an instrumental version of Here Comes the Sun. I can't remember what we had on the way out Blush

Effy1990 · 12/09/2018 06:25

I walked down the aisle to Welcome to Jurassic Park. A lot of our wedding music was inspired by films we love. We walked out to Hedwigs theme.

First dance however was to Nothing Else Matters as we wouldn't have been able to dance to any of the songs we really wanted.

Stpancras · 12/09/2018 06:29

I walked in to the New Order song Run Wild. Very romantic and mellow

LaPufalina · 12/09/2018 06:34

I walked in to "my girl" by the temptations, we signed the register to "here, there and everywhere" by the Beatles and walked out to "everywhere" by Fleetwood Mac.

WildCherryBlossom · 12/09/2018 06:45

@salopek great taste! I walked down the aisle to pachelbel's canon in D and had that version of over the rainbow for our first dance.

You do need to try walking to the music, and think about how far you will be walking.

Elderflower14 · 12/09/2018 06:53

I went down the aisle to the Queen of Sheba and back to Vidors Tocatta.
If I did it again tomorrow i would go down to One Day Like This by Elbow and back to Let There Be Love by Nat King Cole.

Ginnotgym · 12/09/2018 07:01

I had 'Somewhere over the rainbow' by Israel kamakawiwo'ole

aneres · 12/09/2018 07:02

I walked in to REM - Nightswimming and out to Bright Eyes - First day of my life.

InflagranteDelicto · 12/09/2018 07:17

Came in to the first movement of Crazy Music in the Air played by the silver band I play with. Left to Beethoven’s Romance. They also played second waltz, orange juice and frolic during parts of the service. I still grin at how everyone sat up as the first note of second hit themGrin
