My mother is pretty adamant I’m walking down the isle to here comes the bride but I’ve never liked that song and after knowing the history of it I really don’t want to walk down the isle to the bridal march. Who here is walking down to something very traditional like here comes the bride and why did...

Who here is walking down to something very traditional like here comes the bride and why did you choose that? What other songs are you walking down the isle to?

    It comes from an opera where the bridesmaids sang that song after the bride and groom got married. The groom kinda freaks out and kills 5 of the wedding guests and leaves the bride. The bride then dies of grief. I'm sorry, but I don't want to walk down the isle for something foreshadowing my death! It's from the opera Lohengrin.

    I’m walking down the aisle to Clair De Lune played by a string trio. My FH will walk to either the Avengers theme or Game of Thrones.

    I’m walking down the aisle to “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles. They are my all time favorite band!

    So I was thinking of walking down the isle to a string quartet version of here comes the sun, but when I told other people they thought I was comparing myself to the sun. And another person thought it was too fast to walk to. What are your thoughts?

    I’m walking down the aisle to Hallelujah - 2CELLOS ... I wasn’t looking to do a traditional song ... My Fiancée used to play the cello and she showed me this version and I fell in love I thought it was perfect for the ceremony.
