[Leaving the room] Popular wedding songs for different scenes at wedding ceremonies and receptions
Chuza refers to the brief exit the bride and groom make during the wedding reception to change outfits.
Sometimes the couple leaves together, but they may also leave with someone special to each of them.
In this article, we’ve gathered recommended songs for that chuza moment.
We’ve picked tracks that work for various patterns: the couple together, the bride and groom with their respective families, or each of them with friends or acquaintances.
If you’re having trouble choosing BGM for your reception, please use this as a reference.
