Intro to Reception

Are you walking in to the same song as your bridal party, or are you switching it for your entrance?

Curious what the norm is here.

Re: Intro to Reception

all of the weddings that I have been in they always change the sone i think when the bride and groom walked in. I would like to see what other people say though. Good luck

I thought of switching too. Except, I am so picky about what songs to use when, and I can't think of anything more fun to dance to than the song we're using for the bridal party, so I think I'll just stick to the same song. Besides, our parents are getting a different song, and then we're dancing to TWO songs for our first dance. That's enough switching for me.

I can't pick any more songs! But, I might change my mind if I hear something I really like. I have time - it's not until March 05.

I think I will switch it... but if you keep it the same then you get to hear more of the first song... I am really not sure but I will prob switch it...

On the topic of 'Entrance Songs', what songs are all of you using

I am going to have the DJ switch it for our entrance, but yet don't know what songs to choose... HELP!

FH and i are HUGE 80's hairband lovers and true devoted Bon Jovi fans, so we are walking into Livin On a prayer.

I always thought that I would switch songs. But I went to a wedding where they all used the same song (no words) and I thought it was fabulous. That is what I am going to do. I think it makes more sense to use different songs if you have a dj, but with a band I would probably stick with one. JMO

Re: Intro to Reception

I am playing one song for our entire bridal party and another 2 songs for our entrance.
I don't know if any of you remember the movie 'Flash Gordon' but there is an electrical guitar instrumental version of 'Here comes the bride' . I want that to be playing as the MC invites all the guests to stand & greet the bridal party.
Bridal Party: 'Unspeakable Joy'-Kim English
and then for us we're going to have the DJ play 'I'm coming out' by Diana Ross and mix in Samba De Janero. {Very upbeat & exciting}

I have orchestrated my bridal entrance for a long time as you can see...

Re: Intro to Reception

we havent decided on the song for our entrance yet, but we met with the DJ last night and he suggested a song for the BP that has no lyrics..maybe even just a beat..this way everything can be heard and your not going from words into more words...then ours could be lyrics...

We did one song because we only had an MOH and BM plus parents.

We used the theme song to Austin Powers
