Ceremony Music on a tight budget

Can anyone suggest a vendor or some other ideas for ceremony music. I am getting married outdoors on 10/10/10. I want my BM's to come down to 'What a Wonderful World' and I want to come down to 'At Last' by Etta James.
So far everything I've looked at is way out of our budget. I'm open to other ideas/suggestions.

please help!! This is the last item I need to check off my list!!

TIA

Why not look into local college music students or even high school students? I walked down the aisle to an arrangement of What A Wonderful world that DH wrote. I couldn tpick out a song and that is one of my favorite songs so DH arranged it for our string quartet and it was perfect!

I would definitely look into local musicians rather than 'vendors' because they will be much much cheaper!
