Ceremony Music

I'm trying to figure out how many songs I need for the full-mass ceremony.
 What songs did you choose?

Please help!
Thanks!

There are songs, but there are also acclamations throughout the mass.

Prelude music
Processional music
Gathering song (usually optional). This is done once the procession is done and helps everyone get participating
Psalm
Gospel acclamation (alleluia)
Offertory Song
Holy
Memorial Acclamation
Amen
Lamb of God
Communion song or 2
Mary: optional
Recessional

That really depends on your priest/diocese

This is what we used.

Seating of the Mothers:  Hail Mary, Gentle Woman (Landry)

Bridal Party: Canon In D

Entrance of the Bride:  Bridal March * (Wagner)

Responsorial Psalm: You Are Mine

Gospel Acclamation:  Celtic Alleluia

Offertory Hymn: The Wedding Song* (Stockey)

Communion: Irish Wedding Song (traditional)

Recessional:  Wedding March* (Medelshon)

Trumpet Voluntary (Purcell)

The music I marked with a star may be allowed or may not, it depends on the priest/diocese.  Sometimes secular music isn't allowed, sometimes it is.

GL!

You need as many songs as you need for a Sunday mass, plus preludes and processionals . Your readings will somewhat dictate the theme of the songs you pick.
