Choosing the music for the wedding party to walk down the aisle to may not seem very important, but to create the exact atmosphere you want, whether it is religious or modern, the music plays a big role and at many venues you can and might have to choose the wedding processional music. Here are some ideas.
1. Classical music always works the best. The music of Bach and Chopin is pretty, elegant and romantic. It will also be easy to walk down the aisle with this music and make everyone feel relaxed.
2. Instrumental love songs are also great for processional music. You can choose your favorite or second favorite song for the wedding party and then use the sung version to dance to at the reception. It will be more personal as it means something to you and it will make it less formal for a beach or garden wedding.
3. Background new age music. If you want a non religious wedding but still have the interesting music for the processional to walk to, you can find some lovely new age music or panpipes which are different. It will be totally unique and not take away from the bridal march.
4. You can use nature as inspiration. There are tons of CDs and music choices that reflect nature. They are sometimes called mood CDs and will have bird sounds and water as well as wind and funky drum beats. Depending on the type of wedding you want, this could be perfect.
5. Religious music pieces like hymns are traditionally used for wedding processional music and have been used for centuries for a reason. This is because they work. You can choose between a few lovely pieces depending on the atmosphere and size of wedding party.
