When you begin that walk down the aisle towards your fianc\u00e9 the atmosphere is going to be electric. So make sure the music you choose is not going to kill the mood of your wedding day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We suggest that you don\u2019t choose anything too cutting edge. That doesn\u2019t mean to say you can\u2019t show off your taste in music but if you choose that week\u2019s number one hit, you might regret it in years to come. Just as you might regret wearing a wedding dress that\u2019s heavily styled for the moment. Go a little classic and you\u2019ll never be out of style.<\/p>\n

There are also some things you\u2019ll need to bear in mind when making your music choices.<\/p>\n

You need to consider just how long it\u2019s going to take you to walk down the aisle. It usually takes about one to two minutes for most brides<\/a> to walk the aisle. So choose a piece that doesn\u2019t have a long intro or is instantly recognisable. If you\u2019re planning a religious ceremony, some churches won\u2019t allow you to play non-classical music or your own music. So you need to check your choices with the vicar.<\/p>\n

Next, you should be thinking about how your music is going to be played. If it\u2019s in a religious building, keep it classic and have it played on the organ. Alternatively, you could organise your own musicians to full the hall with romance.<\/p>\n

Four pieces of music to play when you walk down the aisle;<\/p>\n

The wedding processional from the Sound of Music.<\/p>\n

Not a religious piece so you can use it in a civil ceremony. It\u2019s majestic, grand and dramatic all at the same time. You\u2019ll feel like a princess when you walk down the aisle to this.<\/p>\n

Clair de Lune by Debussy.<\/p>\n

This is a gorgeous tune to have played on the piano. It\u2019s quiet, atmospheric and very romantic. Also not religious, so you could have it played while your guests are being seated.<\/p>\n

For The Love of a Princess from Braveheart.<\/p>\n

An atmospheric folk tune that\u2019s emotional and sentimental in the right ways. Bound to bring tears to the eyes as your guests watch you start your walk.<\/p>\n

The Bridal Chorus by Wagner.<\/p>\n

Well this is the most traditional of traditional music to walk up the aisle to. Everybody will know you\u2019ve arrived when this starts to play!<\/p>\n

Now what about after you\u2019ve said your vows? When you\u2019ve signed the register and you\u2019re legally man and wife and starting the first steps on your new life together?<\/p>\n

Here you can change the tempo a little bit, and have something that\u2019s celebratory and uplifting.<\/p>\n

Signed, Sealed, Delivered I\u2019m Yours by Stevie Wonder.<\/p>\n

This says it all really. You\u2019ve said your vows and you\u2019re on your way. A timeless piece that\u2019s joyful, catchy and instantly recognisable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
