When walking down the aisle on your special day, how would you like to feel? Elegant, ecstatic, innocent, or bold? Many brides and grooms often seek advice from their wedding DJ regarding popular songs for this momentous occasion. They also seek out the DJ’s advice for building a wedding reception playlist. However, the truth is, there is no right or wrong choice when it comes to selecting your aisle-walking song. This is a deeply personal decision, symbolizing a sweet moment you’ve dreamt about since meeting your other half. With countless options available, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed.
As Victoria BC wedding DJ’s, we’ve crafted some guidelines that may assist couples in this selection process. Here are some considerations when choosing your wedding song for the aisle:
Emotions and Feelings
Reflect on how you want to feel as you walk down the aisle. Music is deeply intertwined with emotions; if you can identify the desired emotional tone, you’ll be halfway to finding the perfect wedding song.
Style and Tone
Once you’ve established the feeling you want, consider the style and tone of the song. It can be anything from upbeat and dramatic to sentimental and heartwarming. The variety of options may surprise you, but aligning them with the feeling you desire will make the decision easier.
Worded or Instrumental
Determine whether you’d prefer a song with lyrics sung by a vocalist, an instrumental version of your favourite song, or perhaps something more classical, like a string quartet or a single harp. Each option offers its unique charm and aesthetic.
Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and choosing the right song for your walk down the aisle is a beautiful way to express your emotions and set the tone for the rest of the celebration. Just as important as your song selection is ensuring you have chosen the best wedding venue in Victoria BC.
In the end, remember that there are no limits to your choice. Trust your heart, embrace the emotions you wish to evoke, and let the music guide you toward that magical moment when you say, “I do.”
