lookin' for some honest opinions on MUSIC

I definitely want my ceremony to be pretty traditional. I mean, I've got the pure white gown and blusher veil. I'm doing very traditional vows ('for richer, for poorer' and all that). The only things i'm basically switching up are the Unity Ceremony (doing sand instead of candle) and I'm also going to have a Hand Ceremony as well. Yes, I wanted to be traditional, but I also wanted some of my own flavor mixed in as well. So now it comes to music....

For the song in which my sister will be performing as a duet, I went with something i haven't heard done 'All i ask of you' from Phantom of the Opera. I definitely want to walk down the aisle to the very traditional 'Here Comes the Bride' music, but I'm not sure if I wanna go with the regular 'Canon in D' for the bridesmaids. It's beautiful, but I'm worried that it might be too 'blah'. I was actually thinking of using the Alicia Keys' 'As I am' for the girls. Not sure if that would work though? Would it sound stupid to have something so NON-TRADITIONAL followed by the very very traditional version of 'Here Comes The Bride'?? I really don't know.

Honest opinions, please.

Here's the music:

As I Am

Canon in D

I say go for it!
I had the bridal party walk down the aisle to a string quartet version of an Incubus song while I walked down the aisle to Canon in D. They had the same theme for one was nontraditional and the other was.
If that's what you like, you should do it! It doesn't matter what other people think, it's your wedding!
