The Ultimate Playlist for Wedding Party Processional Moments

As an experienced wedding DJ, I’ve assembled a list of songs for the processional. Songs are selected by the meaning of the song and popular hits by today’s couples. Besides new and trending, additional lists are grouped by genre to match your taste in music.

The processional song sets the mood for the entire wedding ceremony. It makes a statement about you as a wedding couple, not just as a bride.

I selected a list just for you of the most popular and unique processional songs for walking down the aisle, for the entire wedding party.
