ceremony music - want opinions of songs

ok...i am having two ceremonies.

the first one is a traditional one...walking down to the wedding chrous and leaving to the wedding march (or vice versa..forget right now!)

anywho...

for the second ceremony, i am walkind down to Canon in D. heres where i need help.

i want to use trumpet voluntary. should i use that as we walk out, or use that for the BMs? i still need a thrid song now. thanks!!!

now im answering my own question...how about if i have the girls start to canon in d....have a pause and then continue with me coming out..???? anyone? please? help!

I think that I'm going to have the processional (I'm only having an MOH, so processional will include grandmothers and parents) song be a Bach violin Concerto that I'm just in love with. Then I'll have traditional wedding march for myself.

We've decided to use Arrival of the Queen of Sheba for the recessional.

Vivaldi's Four Seasons is beautiful also.

I don't think you even need the pause - there's that part where it gets all big sounding (sorry, I'm no musical genious) twhere you could start ...

As guest arrive, we are playing Cannon and other classicaly songs.. (15mins)

Bridal party (girls, flower, girls, guys apprearing) and escorting partents down the alise to Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring

short pause (builds up the moment)

You have to have here comes the bride... when else would u ever play this song?

walking down married (it's about time hehe)
the traditonal recessional muisc (forget the name)

as guest are leaving...
Hornpipe from Water Music Suite
and i have to pick 2 more classical songs.
(15mins)

String quartet - hopefully sterling music if they ever send me my info or Stan Wesit

here what im doing


Ava Maria- for mothers to walk out to

Canon D for my bridesmaids and groomsmen

Wedding March for me!

I haven't really picked my ceremony music....but I'm leaning towards the Bridal Party (BM, Ushers, FG and RB) walking into Cannon D and I would walk into the Bridal March and walk out with Bridal Chorus (I think that's right - I get them mixed up)
