Ceremony Music Selections

My FI and I are getting married in a Catholic church the beginning of May.  I have some music selection questions:
1. What song did you use for the candle lighting (if you did one)?
2. Did you have a cantor or just instrumental for the entire ceremony?
3. Did someone cantor the Responsorial Psalm or was it spoken?

Many thanks!  We are down to details here.

    1. We did not do a unity candle.

    2/3. We had a cantor singing for the responsorial psalm, Alleluia, and communion hymn.  The rest of the music was instrumental.
