Ceremony Music - Help

Hi Ladies.. I need some suggestions for ceremony music. I have a little over a month to go before the wedding and I have yet to contact my organist and violinist on what music to play. I finally contacted my soloist with the song "The One He Kept for Me' and I also want to have the "The Lord's Prayer' also. But I am TOTALLY stuck on another other songs. I have to get my programs done and you know the rest.... :)  I am a master procrastinator and I my mind is just blocked iwth any ideas. Any suggestions?

    I'm not going to be much help, but I'm using "The One He Kept for Me" to walk down the aisle. I love that song. I'm also having a duet of "The Prayer" by Yolanda Adams and Donnie McClurkin. My recessional isn't a gospel song though. I'm using The Eric Benet and Tamia song "Spend My Life."

    I thought of "The Prayer" but I haven't asked a male to sing..becuase I am too slow getting things done. But Yolanda does have some nice songs...let me google her and see what I can come up with. Thanks missrekaeagle.

    You're very welcome. Try Cece Winans too because she has some wedding songs too.

    Wow it seems like "The one he kept for me" is really popular. I'm using that song as the prelude. Golden by chrisette michele for the bridal party procession,  Finally I by daryl Coley, and God's Greatest from "with this ring" cd.
