Help with non-traditional ceremony music

Any ideas for non-traditional ceremony music for the processional, recessional etc? I am leaning towards songs with words to be sung by a vocalist as opposed to instrumental choices.

Re: Help with non-traditional ceremony music

We were not married in church so we were able to do something unique. All of these songs were played on piano & flute(no vocals)

Prelude
Truly……………………….Lionel Richie
Mother's entrance & Lighting of Candles
She’s got a way……………….Billy Joel

Seating of Mothers & grandmother
She’s got a way………..……..Billy Joel

Entrance of Maid of Honor
She’s got a way………..……..Billy Joel

Flowergirl entrance
Evergreen………….Barbara Streistand

Bride’s Entrance
Evergreen………….Barbara Streistand

Lighting of Unity Candle
You light up my life….…Debbie Boone

Recessional
Spring......................Vivaldi

The only classical choice was our recessional. We got so many compliments on our ceremony music, even our officiant said we made beautiful selections
