Your entrance as a couple is one of the most important moments of your wedding day, and the right song can make all the difference.

If you have a fun family and fun guests, you might want to play something that is unexpected for your introduction. Something that they wouldn’t have thought you would have chosen. Think “Thunderstruck” by AC/DC, “Bring Em Out” by T.I., “Get Read” by 2 Unlimited, “Tubthumping” by Chumbawamba and the like. Songs like that.
