There's a Selena Song For Every Big Moment at Your Wedding

Everett Collection

Selena has a song for almost every big moment in your life, and your wedding is no exception. From "Dreaming of You" to "Techno Cumbia," there's a hit by the Tejano singer for each milestone at your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Whether it's your walk down the aisle or your groom's dance with his mother, Selena has you covered with both upbeat and slow options. Keep scrolling to get some inspiration for your wedding playlist — you could even just go ahead and have a Selena-themed wedding, to be honest.

For the Processional: "Missing My Baby"

While the groom waits at the altar for your arrival, the lyrics will make him think of how much he loves you — and maybe shed a tear or two.

For the Bride's Walk Down the Aisle: "I Could Fall in Love"

The slow pace of the song is actually perfect to walk down the aisle but also sets the mood for everyone to start crying.

For the Recessional: "Contigo Quiero Estar"

It's the perfect tune to show off exactly what the bride and groom are feeling — the desire to be together forever.

For Cocktail Hour: "Tú Solo Tú"

This is the perfect tune to play in the background while everyone gets ready for the reception to start.

For the Bridal Party's Entrance at the Reception: "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom"

No other song will have everyone clapping and dancing while the bridal party comes in.

For the Bride and Groom's Introduction: "Amor Prohíbido"

"Amor Prohíbido" has a perfect beat for the bride and groom to bust out a few moves while entering their reception for the first time.

For the First Dance: "Dreaming of You"

"Dreaming of You" is one of Selena's biggest hits, and it was basically made for a very romantic first dance. It has a beautiful rhythm and message.

For the Bride and Bridesmaids Dance: "Techno Cumbia"

Just picture the choreography you can create to the beats of this tune.

For the Father-Daughter Dance: "Besitos"

Your dad will feel so much when he hears this song playing.

For the Mother-Son Dance: "Fotos y Recuerdos"

No need to make this dance a slow one — this song will make everyone get up and join.

For the Reception: "Enamorada de Ti"

This is a good addition to the playlist everyone can dance to.

For Cutting the Cake: "I'm Getting Used to You"

You're embarking on a new journey with your new husband!

For the Bouquet Throw: "La Carcacha"

Is there a more perfect song to play while all of the single ladies get in formation?

For the Last Dance of the Night: "Baila Esta Cumbia"

No one will want the party to end when their energy goes off the roof right before the reception ends.
