This post is so old I don’t really expect a response, but were you really able to get the parents, sponsors and bridesmaids all down the aisle to “Jesu”? How long an aisle was it? That is the song that I’ve picked for my bridesmaids to walk to, but I’m not sure there will be enough time for the mothers and grandparents to process as well. I have three bridesmaids - what do you think?

Kara - yes! we were - any sort of musician should be able to play it / stretch it out long enough to get EVERYONE down the aisle :) The aisle was about 100 ft or a little more I think…
