How to Create a Memorable Playlist for Your Bridesmaids

As an experienced wedding DJ, I’ve assembled a list of popular songs for bridesmaids during a wedding day! The list is grouped by wedding moments.

Hey Brides! Don’t forget about music for your BFFs!

Bridesmaids Songs

Quick Tips

When picking out music for your wedding, you must consider your bridesmaids at 3 moments during your wedding:

1. What song are the bridesmaids going to walk down the aisle to?
2. What song will your bridesmaids be introduced to entering the reception hall?
3. Is there a special song that must be played during the reception to dance with your bridesmaids?

Songs for Bridesmaids Processional

When selecting a song, try to select a song that is not about “I Love You” or “Marry Me”. Save these for the couple getting married.

Common songs that are played as your bridesmaids walk down the aisle are below.  These include cover songs to popular wedding songs so that you don’t have the same song at every wedding. Although, you can have those too if you love them!
