So, the nerve-racking part is over. You and your brand new spouse have walked down the aisle, said ‘I do,’ and enjoyed taking part in your wedding photoshoot. Now, you’re about to enjoy an afternoon and evening of being wined and dined, listening to and delivering some speeches (okay, so maybe not all the nerve-racking stuff is over) and dancing the night away.

But, when the two of you arrive at your wedding breakfast or reception, what song will you choose to play as you make your official introduction as a married couple? In many ways, it’s just as important as the song you walk down the aisle to and the song you have your first dance to. It sets the tone for the entire evening and makes sure you enter with style and personality.

In this article, we’re going to give you 150 suggestions for the best wedding entrance songs, which could be anything from slow and romantic ballads to full-on dance numbers that get everyone clapping and cheering as they welcome you in.

Why is choosing an entrance song so important?

When you arrive at your wedding breakfast or reception, it’s the first time you and your other half are being introduced as an officially married couple. That means you deserve to make a big entrance when all eyes are firmly on you. To do this, loads of couples choose a specific song to accompany them. This could be something that gets everyone in the party mood, something with lyrics that are special to you or something a little bit different. It can even be silly or funny; it’s really up to you.

It’s a great way to set the tone for the rest of your wedding day and get across you and your partner’s personalities. You may well be planning a fairly formal wedding ceremony, and the reception is when you can loosen up and start to have fun. And there’s no better way to do that than with a great song to kick things off!

How long should a wedding entrance song be?

A wedding entrance song will typically play for around a minute, while you and your other half enter the venue and take your seats. That being said, if you’re having a larger wedding and therefore have a sizeable venue, it might be necessary for the song to play for a little longer than this. If so, make sure you don’t choose a song that’s too short. It might make things a little awkward if the DJ has to start the song again or scramble to find something to fill the silence!

If there’s something specific in a song that you love, you might want to start the song part way through or ask the DJ to play it a little ahead of when you want to make your entrance. That way, it’ll be perfectly timed for you to make your appearance during your favourite part.

It’s not just your chosen song that goes towards making your wedding entrance memorable. There are plenty of ways to make sure your official entrance goes down with a bang and is entertaining, engaging and memorable.

Here are a few ways to make sure your wedding entrance is one that your guests won’t soon forget:

  • Plan a surprise element: This could be a choreographed dance routine, some unexpected guests or effects or something funny thrown in for good measure.
  • Incorporate lighting effects: Don’t just coordinate with your DJ on the music – see what they can do from a lighting perspective too.
  • Make things personal: Can you combine your entrance with your hobby? For example, if you’re known as a pair of movie geeks, you could walk in accompanied by your favourite film score.
  • Engage your guests: Don’t just walk or dance to your seats, find a way to engage your guests and make sure everyone is included.

How far in advance should you choose your wedding entrance song?

There are several important songs you’ll choose for inclusion in your wedding, including the song you walk down the aisle to and the song you have your first dance to. But, the song you enter your breakfast or reception to is also important, so should be given plenty of consideration.

For that reason, it’s not something you’ll want to leave to the last minute. Think about it at least six months ahead of the wedding and make your final decision at least two months before the big day. And, if you’re planning something special, you might even want to give it a little longer than that to make sure you have everything in place. Make sure you loop in your wedding band or DJ (and your wedding planner, if you have one), so they can help you plan your big moment.
