One song for entire procession?

I have only been to a handful of weddings in recent years, and they all chose a different song for each group during the procession. To me, it can make things seem a little rushed, or just not a good blend since you're only getting a few seconds for each (and maybe that's the djs doing).

Our wedding party will be very small, I have my maid of honor and 1 bridesmaid, fiance will have his best man and 2 groomsmen. Is it ok to play just one song for all of us? Or should there be a change in song to indicate I'm up next?

Same. We have a relatively large bridal party but I can't stand when songs are cutoff after a handful of seconds.

Well be doing two songs
Dearly beloved (from kingdom hearts) while the moms, bridesmaids, and flower girl/ring bearer walk.
Then Undertale (from undertale) when my daughter and I walk down. Honestly I was going to only choose one but those are from my two favorite games and I couldn't decide which I liked more.

We just used one song--it was about 4 mins long and we had ample time for everyone. we also had the luxury of it being sung live by my brothers, so they could stretch it out a bit if they needed to, but we were all good.

We did one song, and it was beautiful. At other weddings when more than one song is played I hate that the DJ didn't work with the couple to find songs that mesh well, and don't fade/ transition into the next song at all. I hate the play, then stop, then silence for a few minutes, then the next song. There should never be silence.

I’m having a live singer. My professional will be Ready for Love by India Arie. Timing it perfectly for build up and I will come out at the peak. Wedding is in May but so far that’s the plan. I have one MOH 2bm and 2 FG ages 2&3 so I’m not sure if they’ll even make the processional lol.

We did 2 songs: one for the rest of the wedding party and a different song when I came out. I've seen it done both ways though. One song for the whole thing would be fine
