Ceremony music question for those who are getting married in a church....

This question applies to Newlywed's as well!!! What combination of instruments are you using(or have used)? I am a little confused about the instruments that I should use. If it helps, I am getting married in a small church. Just curious about opinions on what combo of instruments would work best!!! Thanks in advance!!!

We just used the organist that came with the church.
If you're looking to add your own musicians how about a flutist or a violinist?

I am getting married in a church and i didn't want to use teh organist so i hired a flute, violin, cello trio (stan Weist). You have to ask the church if they will allow it but you do need teh soloist and organist for psalms.

We're having a full mass so we have to use the organist who will know the psalms but we also hired a string trio.

This is what we did. And honestly, I wasn't paying attention at all to the music when I was in the church. Once my Dad and I were in line waiting for the BP to walk down the aisle, I got so nervous
