What song did you walk down the aisle to?

[ErlingHaalandsManBun]

My DD is getting married next year and we have been discussing songs for her to walk down the aisle to.

She is quite 'alternative' and not at all 'soppy' (her words not mine!) and doesn't want anything too lovey dovey.

So what did you chose and why? I may get some sneaky good ideas for her 😜

For reference when I married my DH I walked down to Chaka Khan 'Love Me Still'

Just a string version of here comes the bride.
Considered an "alternative" option but I the end I got all traditionalist 😆

Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer

I was married end of the 80s and had ‘ here comes the bride ‘ ! I don’t think many had different music back then , maybe Pachelbel ( the pure new wool ad music ) but most had traditional music. I wouldn’t these days ( if I ever got married again! Which is unlikely lol )

String quartet version of Sweet Child of Mine. Was perfect

For All We Know by the Carpenters and that was over fifty years ago!

I didn't have any processional music as it was really short aisle but now i wish i had used more than words by extreme.

When I fall in love Nat King Cole and back up to City of Stars

Etta James - At Last - took us 16 years to get married so was fitting

Pachelbel's canon - and I'd use it again if the chance arose.

I was very traditional.
The Arrival Of The Queen Of Sheba by Handel from Solomon.

Thinking out loud - Ed Sheeran

INXS Never tear us apart

I had the Barcarolle from Tales of Hoffman by Offenbach - beautiful piece of music.

Here comes the sun by The Beatles

In an aeroplane over the sea by neutral milk hotel.

Make Someone Happy by Jimmy Durante

My friend had Arrival of the Queen of Sheba

I came in to the little room where we were married to Handel’s Arrival of the Queen of Sheba. I love Baroque music and it’s often used for arriving brides and it worked well in our tiny intimate venue - there were only eight of us.

I had Here Comes The Bride! Got married 10 years ago at 30 years old. It was in a church and I wanted the full on traditional wedding. We walked out to the Wedding March too! 😄

Fairly unusual these days to be fair though, along with getting married in a church from my experience.

Highland Cathedral played on the bagpipes by my 12 yr old nephew

Me too I had it 32 years ago and would have it again

Beautiful.

I had Trumpet Voluntary by Purcell, very popular 40-odd years ago.
My nephew and his wife walked in to Somebody to Love by Queen, it was lovely.

“Think of Me” from Phantom. Played on the harp and very much in the background. It was a short walk and I ended making my DH walk up with me.
