PROFESSIONAL TIP: Do you want a flawless Processional? Provide the musicians with a Signal Person to wave when the
Processional is ready to proceed. There will be a short wait while the musicians change the sheet music. The first person must not
start down the aisle until they hear the processional music. Similarly, the bride should wait a few bars into her music,before
starting to process.
