Song to walk down the aisle to

67 replies

If you had to choose one song to walk down the aisle to, what would it be and why?
Currently planning my wedding for next year and the one song I've always wanted to walk down the aisle too, my MIL had for her wedding last may, so I can't really choose it. Now really struggling with what song to choose!
Recommendations needed! ❤️💍

I walked down to the violinist version of stay with me. Look on Spotify lots of lovely violin covers.

I had an instrumental version of she's always a woman.

Hmm I can't see myself having a wedding like that but if I did, I would choose either: Nick Cave - Ship Song
Nick Cave - Breathless
Fleetwoods - Unchained Melody
Cat Power - I found a reason
Sweet Sweet Lies - Nobody will love you like I do

I walked down to ABBA singing I do, I do, I do. Makes me smile to think of it.

Great choice - we had it on the way out!

We're getting married in 8 weeks and I'm walking down the aisle to "Do you believe in magic" by The Loving Spoonful. Loved it since I heard it in a Barbie cartoon when I was a little girl!

I heard The Seekers "I know I'll Never Find Another You" today on the radio, and I thought of this thread.

This version of Can't help falling in love. I can't have the Elvis version because it was my parents, and I'd never manage to get through without crying, as they are no longer with us, but the song means so much to me that I'd want to make it mine too and this is such a beautiful remake.

This will be our first dance song, my fiancé likes the 21 pilots version, either at it's still a beautiful song x

I’m currently considering Scotty McCreery this is it to walk down the aisle.

I love that song!!!

It's a beautiful song and very popular for walking down the aisle so I doubt anyone would tie it back to your MIL so I would say go for it.

If MIL asks say it was in honor of her!

I walked down to Songbird by Eva Cassidy first time round and will be walking to the theme from Jurassic World this time.
