Pachelbel's Canon for the wedding bride entrance

One of the most popular song for the wedding bride entrance at ceremony, as an alternative to the traditional wedding marches by Wagner and Mendelssohn, is Pachelbel's Canon in D.

The song is very nice indeed although quite long and complex. Our advice to you, bride and groom, is to choose a part of the song (the one that you like best) lasting about three minutes, since The song is very nice indeed although quite long and complex. Our advice to you, bride and groom, then is to choose a part of the song (the one that you like best) lasting about three minutes, since the celebrant probably will no grant you all the time necessary for the entire play time. Consider that between the entrance of the bride in the church and its altar arrival it takes less than two minutes. For musicians certainly will not be a problem to settle. The track, in fact, has a circular structure with chords that are repeated thus making easier to play it even partially, you will not hear any abrupt interruption.

From our point of view it is recommended over wedding marches. You can opt for an organ and violin, trio or string quartet, harp, harp and violin etc. To listen to the song click here
