Wedding Ceremony & Reception Music Discussions

Ceremony and Reception Music

Ever since I was little I have loved the sound of the Organ, and so for our Ceremony we are going to have the organ playing for the processional and recessional music.  I dont want to use the traditional songs they use, and do want to use christmas songs for one or the other.  what are some other songs that have a good melody for the organ?
 Also, at our reception we are not having the dinner and dancing.. We are going to have a small dance floor for anyone who'd like to dance, but mainly it is just dinner.. We have Hor'dourves and cocktails, dinner, then dessert and mingling * due to family situations it will be the first time our families will meet everyone*  from the beginning of the reception to the end we are having a classical guitarist play.. Can somone please help me with ideas for him to play.. I know when we meet he will have a list of songs as well, but Id like to have afew of our own.. We have picked a few but need more Ideas.
Thank you. 
I forgot to add our weddings is December 4, 2010

    My former boss is also a church organist/pianist on the side.  She has a whole collection of music, I'm sure whoever you get will have the same.  With that I think that anything classical and anything Christmas should work on the organ.

     Aww I love the organ too!! Check out the song Melodie du Mariage. I'm not really sure if that is truly its name, but if you type those words into youtube it should come up. It's was used in the movie coming to america as she walked down the isle but it has a recessional feel to me, its big and happy! Hope that's helpful
