You'd think it would be easier to find traditional Wedding March Sheet Music than it is!
 

The traditional wedding march is the one by Felix Mendelssohn. It is a recessional, meaning it is played after the wedding ceremony as the bride and groom exit the church as Mr and Mrs.

The great jazz coronet player and performer, Louis Armstrong! We love him! If you are hoping to find some processional or recessional alternatives, some jazz wedding music, for example, then how about Louis Armstrong's Jazz Wedding March from the film High Society?

The traditional wedding march processional is "Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin" (Richard Wagner) (also known as "Here Comes the Bride"). It is played while the bride enters the church and proceeds to walk UP the aisle.
But there are a lot of brides and grooms who are great jazz fans, and you know those jazz lovers -- nothing traditional for them!
See some samples for other great classical music selections -- some of them might be used inside the church or room where the wedding is to be performed while the guests are waiting for the ceremony to begin! Good mood setters.

February 2012: American actress, Scarlet Johannson, divorced actor Ryan Reynolds during 2011. Yet, in an interview in late 2011, Ms Johansson stated she has no regrets about the failed marriage. The couple was together for two years. She said, "It was the best thing I ever did. I'm a big believer in instinct. Getting married was the right thing to do because it was natural."

"It grew out of romance and love and a desire to have a future with somebody, and I was very fortunate that I married somebody who turned out to be the person I thought he would be," Ms Johansson added.

musical notes so colorful -- like you and your family!
Don't forget to entertain your guests while they wait for the wedding ceremony to begin! Your wedding is a 'show' produced by you and it starts the minute the guests step foot into the church, temple or place where the marriage ceremony will take place. Confer with the representatives of the church to find out what musical options are available to you for filling the church with music before the service. Will they let you bring your own music in on an ipod? Can they hire some musicians on your behalf? What type of music do you want your guests to hear. Music while your guests are waiting is a very nice touch that really warms up the room!
