What do you think of these songs for our procession/recession:

Family/Bridal Party:
Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring
or
Kenny G's Wedding song

Brides entrance:
Ave Maria
or
Now we are free - Enya

I'm trying to decide. I love both songs for each party...but wanted to get your opinions. THANKS

I personally am a fan of both ave maria and enya!! However, after my wedding this past weekend, having ave maria played (for the mother's being walked down the aisle), it made the moment feel all that more real and alive!

This is what I did - I wanted each group to have a significant song that I loved being played as they walked down the aisle:

Mother's = Ave Maria

Bridal Party = Canon in D

Me = Trumpet Voluntary

Recessional = Wedding March
