I have hired a violinist to play during the ceremony and cocktail hour. I was wondering how many different songs are needed for the ceremony?

In looking it up, I see that there is different music for the following:

Prelude, Groom’s Entrance, Seating of the Mothers, Bridal Procession, Bride’s Procession, Recessional, and Postlude.

Can someone please advise if I need separate songs for all categories? Please explain.

Thanks so much!

You can really do whatever you want. I was recently at a wedding where they did the entire procession (parents, bridal party, bride, etc.) all to the same song. It depends on how fast you want your procession to go. Like, one 2 minute song  where someone walks, and then everyone waits and waits for the song to be finished for the next part of the processional to begin, etc. It also depends on how long your aisle is.
