Musicians at Church Ceremony - Any recommendations???

Hey Girls - Anyone hiring extra musicians for their ceremony?? I am on a budget, so if I had to choose 1 instrument, which is the one that compliments the organ the most?? I believe my bridal party will walk down to Jesu, Joy of Man's Desire, I will walk to Canon in D and we will exit to Trumpet Voluntary. I know a lot of people do the trumpet, but I think that only sounds good with Trumpet Voluntary right?? Let me know what you think and if you have any recommendations on a vendor. My wedding is only a month and a half away, so if I am going to book someone, need to do it quick. Thanks!!

I am using a pianist, Charles Henry (a vendor here) for both the ceremony music and reception.

I would say violinist, but I'm biased because I've always wanted violins at my wedding. I'm actually having a string trio at my wedding (2 violins and a cello) and I have a wonderful group that's doing mine. They can also just send one member to your ceremony, if you want. FM me if you want more information. . I found them to be very reasonable.
