But that style of wild celebration clearly isn\u2019t for everyone. That begs the question: How should the bride and groom, and the wedding party make their entrance to the wedding reception? One interesting way to introduce the bridal party is to use a song that builds up over the course of a minute or so, with the bride and groom coming into the reception at the highpoint of the musical build up. The Dave Matthew\u2019s Band\u2019s \u201cTwo Step\u201d is an example of a song that works well as an entrance soundtrack. If you\u2019re sports fans, you can use Gary Glitter\u2019s \u201cRock and Roll (part 2)\u201d or Queen\u2019s \u201cWe Are the Champions,\u201d both famous for being played during the intros of many professional sporting events. A simple announcement made by a member of the wedding party or event staff will also work for an entrance, but for couples who want something a little more, there\u2019s nothing wrong with putting a little pizzazz into it.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you!<\/p>\n<p>Rolf<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Rolf Shick, Banquet Manager, The Manor By now we\u2019ve all seen the crazy freestyle dance on YouTube, and again during The Office\u2019s season finale when Pam and Jim got married.
