Ceremony Rehearsal with the processional song?

Not weird at all. i would totally practice it so they know. but also on the day of you can just tell them to walk in cuz youll all be together in the line ready to walk in. thats what one of my friends did she just told us when to walk

I would definitely rehearse with the music, especially if it has specific pauses and cues for people to walk in.

We didn't rehearse with ours, mostly because the processional song was a surprise for my husband, but we also had our venue coordinator cue people to start walking.

We played our music at our rehearsal! Not weird at all!

We had the music at our rehearsal. That’s what the rehearsal is for is to run through the ceremony and work out any kinks. We did the rehearsal twice-once inside, once outside.

It's a great idea! We'll be doing the same thing at our rehearsal, I'm even editing our music to fit the length (lack thereof...lol) of our bridal party. Especially if you have specific times for them to come in, the rehearsal is a great idea for the day before the wedding. You can even tell them what lyrics to come in on and send them the song so they can listen to the music and get used to hearing/anticipating it 😊

I think rehearsals sound like a great idea. And if you know who you want to walk after each pause I would send each a set of lyrics with their "cue" pause highlighted. It might sound a little obsessive, but no one wants to be the bridesmaid who missed their cue and gets too much attention.

I think that would be extremely useful to do at the rehearsal, that's the kind of thing that rehearsals are made for. We'll be rehearsing with our processional song and each person in the processional will have a musical cue or positional cue (ie when the person ahead of you gets to X you start walking)

Wedding rehearsal is the best thing to do the day before the actual day and we didn't even have all the wedding party on time to go through timing and order of how it would have been done. The kids in the family was another matter besides the main 4 individuals concerned. It turned out good though as fast as it went and done. The Reception entrance dance was practised though for the most part to get perfect, which turned out to be faster since the DJ played the remix version.

Do the rehearsal to know your good and ok with your wedding party timing and pauses and your entrance to be perfect. Rest assured you will feel great and less worried at the end of it.
