Ceremony Music

Three important moments of your Wedding Ceremony involve music. You'll discover that there is a wide selection and many renditions to choose from. We've put together a few samples to give you an idea of what some of the traditional songs sound like.

First, the Brides Maids In music. Pachebel's Canon In D is a traditional Brides Maids In song. This music begins when the brides maids are ready to make their way down the isle.

Second, the Processional or Bridal Chorus. This music announces the brides entrance and can be as grand or simple as you'd like.

Third, the Recessional or Bridal March. This music plays during the departure of the Bride and Groom after all wedding vows are completed and they are pronounce husband and wife.

 

Push the play button in the Media Player above each song. This will let you hear a short sample of what the music sounds like. Press the Media Player Stop Button or let the sample finish before choosing another selection to hear.
