photograph by Hollenbaugh Photography Most wedding ceremonies utilize the following musical format:
- Musical Prelude - Usually starts a half hour before the actual ceremony begins. This provides a warm atmosphere for guests who arrive early for the ceremony.
- Music for Special Seatings - One or more special selections are chosen to be played while important guests are being seated, such as the mother of the bride.
- Bridesmaids Processional - A stately march-like musical selection playing during the entrance of the Bridesmaids. Traditionally, Trumpet Voluntary by Jeremiah Clark is an extremely elegant choice.
- Wedding Processional - An even more elegant musical selection for the entrance of the Bride. The traditional Wedding Processional is Wagner’s Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin (“Here comes the Bride”).
- Musical Interlude - A subdued musical selection performed during the ceremony, offering a musical change of a pace and a moment to reflect upon the significance of the occasion.
- Wedding Recessional - A joyous musical selection celebrating the completion of the Wedding Ceremony used by the Wedding Party to make their exit. The traditional Wedding Recessional is Mendelsohn’s Wedding March.
- Musical Postlude - The musical services continue while other guests exit.
