Am I missing any ceremony music?

I just want to make sure i've covered all parts of the ceremony. Here's all the music I have:

7 songs to play while guests are arriving
1 song for mother's to walk down aisle to
1 song for bridesmaids/groomsmen to walk to
1 song for bride
1 song for sand ceremony
1 song for recessional

What about the signing of the marriage cert?

Isn't the signing usually done during the sand ceremony?

I'll check with my pastor about the signing thing. On the timeline that he gave me it says "witnesses return to sign marriage certificate" after the recessional. But I'm not sure when we actually sign it.

I didn't realize there was so much.  I was just looking at a processional/recessional.  Yikes!

That's all I was looking at when I started planning, but then my pastor emailed me a packet of wedding planning tips and it listed all the places you need music. He definitely saved me!  lol

Are you going to give a gift to Mother Mary?  I'm not, but that is another option that my organist just asked us about & he said the common song for that s Ave Maria.
