- What song will your bridesmaids be introduced to entering the reception hall?
- Is there a special song that must be played during the reception to dance with your bridesmaids?
Read on to learn more about each one.

As an experienced wedding DJ, I’ve assembled a list of popular songs for bridesmaids during a wedding day! The list is grouped by wedding moments.
Songs for Bridesmaids Walking Down the Aisle
When selecting a song, try to select a song that is not about “I Love You” or “Marry Me”. Save these for the couple getting married.
