3. Wedding Songs For The Second Processional

Now we're going to focus on the wedding song for your Second Processional. By now you've chosen your First Processional, or your parent's processional. Now, you have a few choices to make. Do you want the minister, groom, and groomsmen to walk to the altar/ceremony gazebo, etc. together (usually not down the isle, but from the audiences right side) or would you prefer the minister, groom, and best man come in first (also entering from the right side) and have the bridesmaids escorted down the center isle by the remaining groomsmen? Your decision here will impact the next song selection, because you will either have both guys and gals walking down the isle, or just the gals. If it is just the bridesmaids, you can feel free to get a little "girly" with your wedding song choice if you want! Now, let's move on.

Your Second Processional, or bridesmaid's processional is very similar to your first processional. It's usually a classical or contemporary piece, but with a twist. Since you're dealing with younger people, the bridesmaids and groomsmen, they are typically less offended. This opens up the door to have a little fun, if you so choose! Many of the suggestions made earlier also apply to this song, but going with a contemporary or new song would work even better here. Songs like Amazed by Lonestar, Somewhere Over The Rainbow by Isreal Kamakawiwo'ole, and Fairy Tales by Enya have been used by some of my clients. Notice these are still slow and romantic, but, this is your wedding so do whatever you want! For instance, if you want to really go crazy, you're bridesmaids can walk down to Chapel of Love, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, or even Beyonce's Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)!

Finally all of this may be a moot point, and here's why: If you only have a few parents walking down to the First Processional, you might not need a different wedding song for your Second Processional. You may only need 20 seconds of music for your parents to make it down the isle, and it would seem quite odd to cut off that first song! this may make your life easier, because now you'd be able to combine your First and Second Processionals into one. Choosing one song may be your only option here.

Again, to find different versions of the same song performed by different artists, do a search for songs you like and leave the artist blank. And again, don't forget movie soundtracks!

For those of you who purchased my Wedding Timeline Planner, you'll have an easier time by going through the Song Suggestions List and searching those on iTunes or Amazon.

Good luck and thanks for stopping by Wedding Songs and Music Ideas!
