FAQs
Do bridesmaids walk down the aisle to the same song as the bride?
Typically, the bride has her own song to walk down the aisle to. Another song is selected for honored family and wedding party members such as the bridesmaids. In a traditional wedding ceremony, the groom and groomsmen are already at the altar.
How long should a bride’s entrance song be?
A bride’s entrance song should be between 2 and 3 minutes. You need enough time for the bride to enter the ceremony venue (with or without escort) and walk down the aisle from the back of the aisles to the altar where her future spouse is waiting.
What song should a bride walk down the aisle to?
First, you must consider the song’s tempo. Select a song that has a slow tempo so that wedding guests can gasp at the bride’s beauty and is not rushed. You can choose to skip the traditional classical song and select a modern indie, R&B, or acoustic song too.
Who walks in first at a wedding ceremony?
The order of the processional is as follows: 1. The officiant (minister, priest) 2. Grandparents 3. Parents 4. Mother of the bride 5. Groom 6. Wedding Party 7. Ring Bearer 8. Flower Girl 9. Bride.
Does the groom get an entrance song?
Traditionally the groom does not enter and walks down the aisle to his own song. However, having a song for the groom would add excitement and personalization to the ceremony not found at every wedding. See our list of groom processional song suggestions.
Who gives the bride away if no father is around?
Besides Dad, who can give the bride away? Ask a parent figure or role model in your life such as your mom, step-parent, uncle, aunt, grandparent, sister, brother, friend, or child. A bride can also choose to walk alone if no one fills the role of giving her away. Remember to do what makes you happy.
Whoever is selected to give the bride away and walk her down the aisle must walk on her right side. This means that the bride holds the left arm of her father.
What song does the bride walk down the aisle to?
Traditionally, the song selected for the bride to talk down the aisle toward the altar is Felix Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March”. In the United States, the song is commonly known as the “Here Comes the Bride” song. As the bride enters, another popular choice is Pachelbel’s “Canon in D”.
