What do we need to think about?


It is important to think about the ambience you want to create for your aisle walk.

Consider - what is special to you as a couple.


Do you want the bridal party entrance to be:

  • reflective,

  • romantic,

  • exciting,

  • traditional,

  • timeless,

  • elegant,

  • celebratory,

  • unique,

  • or even in memory of a loved one?


  • Is there a special song that you both love? A song that reflects you as a couple? A song that has special memories tied to it?

  • Do you want to use this moment to celebrate your loved one as you glide down the aisle towards them?

  • Do you want to keep it a surprise - so only you and the musicians know what you will enter to? You could use this moment to have something unexpected... a more unique musical choice?

No matter what you choose, remember this moment is all about you, as a couple, coming together, greeting one another before you get married.


If you're still uncertain - it's ok - together we can work out what will reflect you best as a couple. Whether it's elegant classical repertoire for a sophisticated ambience, or getting the party started with some of our favourite pop arrangements, our music will provide the perfect balance between background and entertainment for this special part of your day.


Special Requests:


If you would like a song you don’t see on our list, let us know and we will look to see if an arrangement already exists. If we can access it we will let you know.

Otherwise, we can discuss putting a bespoke arrangement together for you at £60.00 per piece.


When do we need to make our decisions by?

There is no rush on choosing your aisle walk music but if you'd like to explore the bespoke option do let us know as soon as you've made a decision so we have plenty of time to arrange the piece for you.

We have found that most couples tend to pick this piece fairly early on.

Usually we ask for at least a month's notice so that we can practice the pieces in the context of your set list.


Have fun - this is a beautiful moment - one you will not forget!


We're excited to hear your ideas!


Best wishes,

Laura & Katja
