Well, howdy there! Let’s gab a bit about them groom processional songs. You know, the tunes that play when the fella walks down the aisle, not just the gal. It’s a big moment for him too, ain’t it? Getting hitched is a big deal for both of ‘em, not just the bride in her fancy dress.
So, what kind of songs get a fella down that aisle? Some folks like that old-timey stuff. Real classic, you know? Like that Pachelbel’s Canon in D. Heard that one at a heap of weddin’s. It’s purdy, gotta say. Makes things feel all fancy and important. And that Wedding March by Mendelssohn, another one that’s been around forever. People still use it, so it must be doin’ somethin’ right.
But then you got some young’uns who want somethin’ different. They might pick somethin’ you wouldn’t expect, like that “Chasing Cars” song, but all done up with strings. Fancy fiddles and such. Makes it sound real nice, even if the song itself ain’t your usual weddin’ fare. It’s all about makin’ it special for them two, I reckon.
Now, I ain’t no expert, but I’ve been to enough weddin’s to know a thing or two. You gotta pick a song that feels right. Somethin’ that makes the groom feel good, makes him feel like he’s walkin’ towards somethin’ special. It could be somethin’ slow and sweet, or somethin’ a bit more…well, I don’t know the word, but somethin’ that makes you tap your feet, you know?
Heard some folks use regular songs, too. Not just that classical stuff. Like that Elvis fella, “Can’t Help Falling in Love”. That one’s real sweet. And that girl, Christina Perri, she sings that “A Thousand Years” song. Heard that one a bunch too. Seems like young folks like that one a whole lot.
- Classical choices: Pachelbel’s Canon in D, Wedding March by Mendelssohn. Real classy, like I said. Makes the whole thing feel grand.
- Modern twists: Songs like “Chasing Cars” done up with strings. A little different, but still purdy.
- Popular picks: Elvis’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love”, Christina Perri’s “A Thousand Years.” Stuff you hear on the radio, but still sounds nice at a weddin’.
- Other stuff to think about: There’s other songs, too, like “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” by Bach. And some folks use that “Dance of the Clouds” and “Ave Maria”. Lots of choices, really.
It ain’t just about the groom, though. You gotta think about the whole shebang. The parents walkin’ down the aisle, too. They need songs! Heard some folks use “Wind Beneath My Wings” for that. Real tearjerker, that one. And that Louis Armstrong fella, he sings “What A Wonderful World.” That one’s nice and cheerful.
Then there’s that Celine Dion song, “Because You Loved Me.” Another one that gets folks weepy. And for somethin’ a bit funny, I heard some folks use “Parents Just Don’t Understand,” but I reckon that’s more for a laugh than anything else. Gotta keep things light sometimes, you know?
So, pickin’ a song for the groom, it’s about findin’ somethin’ that fits him. Somethin’ that shows who he is and how he feels about gettin’ married. It’s his big moment too, and the music should make it even better. Don’t just think about the bride, the groom’s important too! It’s their day, both of ‘em. And a good song can make it a day to remember, for everyone.
Remember this, getting married, that’s a big day. One of the best days of your life, they say. So, you want everything to be just right, music and all. Take your time, listen to some songs, and find somethin’ that feels good in your heart. That’s the best way to do it, I reckon. Make it special, make it yours.
And don’t forget, it ain’t just about the weddin’ day, it’s about the marriage, too. That’s the real important part. But a good song to walk down the aisle to? Well, that’s a nice way to start things off, ain’t it? It’s like a good luck charm for the whole marriage, I think.
So whether it’s a classic, a modern tune, or something in between, choose a song that makes the groom feel like the king he is on his special day. That’s all there is to it! Good luck picking them songs. Hope it all works out purdy!
