Best Indian Wedding Bridal Party Entrance Songs (2023)

Updated: Sep 3, 2022

The Bridal party is awesome because we are celebrating being from the girl's side of the family and giving away our beloved daughter. As we talked about in our groom's entrance Hindi song guide, entering on the right song can make or break how you and your guests remember your wedding.


The right song when you enter will induce the right emotion, which gives the right photos, the right videos, and the right experience.


In this post I'll list out all the songs with links to the relevant jams!


Best Indian Wedding Bridal Party Entrance Songs


These songs are perfect for parents of the bride to enter on, brother or sister of the bride to make an entrance on and even the cousins.



1. Sooraj Ki Baahon Mein - Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara


We only get once chance to live, so why shouldn't we love it openly?


This is a great bridal party entrance song because it has those Coldplay feel good celebration vibes, isn't too specific for just one guy and girl and the movie itself was a coming of age tail set in Spain. In other words, it's a perfect tune for friends to enter in on!


2. Taarefan Reprise - Lisa Mishra


You're savage, you're raw, I think everything in your body is sexayyyyy


Alright while these lyrics may not be exactly the most sanskari but they are in fact appreciated as entrance songs because Indian weddings do have a lot of masala involved.


And the only way to let that slide is by being naughty in Hindi, because for some reason people don't tighten up to these tunes (in fact they cheer and applaud) but if you heard 50-Cent dropping F bombs you'd see the aunties be like whaaaat?!?


Either way a fan masala track to enter in on featuring Badshah from 2018.




3. It’s Life - Niraj Chag


Not many people know about this instrumental track with light vocals but consider yourself special because it is quite a nice one. Give it a listen and you'll find a place to play it during your lovely Bollywood wedding!



4. Dil Diyan Gallan - Tiger Zinda Hai Flute Version


This instrumental from Tiger Zinda Hai by Vishal and Shekhar is beautiful and has no lyrics. Another great track to set the right mood while playing to a familiar melody.



5. What Makes You Beautiful - Boyce Avenue


Boyce Avenue probably makes a killing doing high end weddings around the world and this video should be obvious why. The title says it all.




A very popular entrance song at Indian and Gujarati and Punjabi weddings.




6. High Heels Te Nachche - Ki & Ka


When you dance in high heels, you look very appealing...


I honestly have no clue why this song's lyrics are great for entrances, but I hear it requested all the time so to be honest, listen and enjoy yourself. It's a good upbeat romantic (sort of) song about courting the lady by Yo Yo Honey Singh but I'm guessing it's just a good party starter about "damn girl you lookin fly!"



7. Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars


Bruno Mars is the king of wedding songs, and for good reason. I'd even fall in love with him if he sang this song to me, which is all about you being perfect just the way you are!





8. Kala Chashma - Baar Baar Dekho


You're the talk of the town, who ignites a fire on the streets


While this movie got mixed reviews, this song was appreciated and will last the test of time. Another masala track to talk about this damn fine lady who's about to get married!




9. Wohi Din Aa Gaya - Kisna (Soft Buildup)


That day has come!


A classic folk song that's great for more traditional entrances!



10. Tere Bina - Guru


Oh my beloved, there is no life without you...


A.R. Rahman is the most famous musician out of India and although Bollywood isn't his favorite, it's what he's known for the most. A lovely entrance song for girl's side!




11. Jashn-E-Bahara - Jodha Akbhar Flute Instrumental


Instrumentals galore and this track from the Jodha Akbar soundtrack just requires one listen. Even if you don't use it for an entrance use it as some other event!



12. Latikas Theme - Slumdog Millionaire


Another instrumental to set the tone from this Oscar winning movie that made two stars over night.


13. Tum Se Hi - Jab We Met


Every moment I breathe my life has meaning because of you...


I mean I'm all for independence and while this song doesn't exactly translate well, in Hindi it's a beautiful ode to your parter and a great entrance song!



Just beautiful and from a very popular movie with two big time actors!


14. Teri Ore - Singh Is Kinng


Towards you...


You'll quite literally be celebrating walking down the aisle towards him or her...


15. Cheerleader - OMI (Felix Jaehn Mix)


"Oh I think that I found myself a cheerleader..."


This is my brother's favorite wedding song and if you lived in India and America you might enjoy it as a happy medium for both.



16. A Sky Full of Stars - Vitamin String Quartet


The hidden gem on this list, I'm even listening to it now as I write this list! You'll notice they're not many view but wow, saw this at an entrance in Goa recently and DAMN! it gets everybody super emotional.


The perfect bridal entrance track! My favorite!


17. Thousand Years - Piano Guys (Christina Perri)


The Piano guys are just destroying it with these tracks and this song I think from the Twilight movies is a very popular entrance choice and is an instrumental.


18. Gudiya Re Gudiya - Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (KABIRA ENCORE)


My darling daughter, is leaving for her in-law's house...


Lyrics make it pretty obvious right? You'll get some tears on this one for sure, even if she just movies across the street!



19. Nachde Ne Saare - Baar Baar Dekho


Everyone is dancing together happily, look at this wonderful scene


A great track from a misunderstood movie but good fun all around. Stand up comedian Anubav Pal (who is great) actually wrote this film.



20. Jeena Jeena - Badlapur


My earth has found it's sky...


Another beautiful song before we take it home



21. Chittiyaan Kalaiyaan - Roy


I love you, please take me shopping...you're my darling angel baby...


I love this song because I don't understand how the lyrics are so all over the place, but the song is so catchy and fun (and the video so cute) that I can't help but simply just enjoy it for what it is. Neither can the Desi public!


My nieces even danced to this song at my wedding and it was awesome!
