Ladies what are you using for your church ceremony music?  What are you walking to? What are your attendants walking in to?

Thanks for the help!

WP to Cannon D and me to wedding march.

Still waiting on the music director to get back to me with a list of songs for the ceremony itself.

This site has been a huge help with programs and readings and they even have music stuff

I'm walking into Trumpet Voluntary along with the rest of the BP.  The recessional is also something Trumpet, I forget exactly the name but it goes with it.

Here are mine so far but I am meeting with the music coordinator on Sunday to confirm:

Prelude (She said these must be "sung" otherwise I would have done instrumental):
In This Very Room (Harris)
Ave Maria (Schubert)
The Prayer (Boccelli)

Groom's Parents and B&G's Grandparents: Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (Bach)

Bridesmaids: Canon in D (Pachelbel)

Bride: Trumpet Voluntary (Clarke) (*Note: My mom will be walking me down the aisle as my father is deceased.)

Responsorial Psalm: PS128

Celtic Alleluia

Presentation of Gifts: You Are Mine (Haas)

Presentation to Mary: Ave Maria (Schubert)

Communion: In Remembrance of Me

Recessional: Wedding March (Mendelssohn)

My church doesn't allow Canon D or the wedding march, but I didn't want them anyway so it worked out:

Bridesmaid Processional:              Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring (Bach)

2 ring bearers, 6 bridesmaids

Bride Processional:                          Trumpet Voluntary (Jeremiah Clarke)

Unity Candle:                                     Take My Hand

Responsorial Psalm:                        The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord

Presentation of the Gifts:            Here I am Lord

Communion:                                      One Bread, One Body

Flowers to Mary:                              Ave Maria

Recessional:                                       Ode to Joy

Hi!

Processional: Canon in D

Offertory: Surrender http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oyHpLg32c8

Communion: Your Love is Extravagant http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DqlLAVm0cg

Signing of the Registry: Beloved http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qivmOIHSj2Q

Closing: Your Love is Amazing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caJZ0Fqp7wM

I'm still trying to plan mine...here's what I am thinking so far:

Prelude: Bridal Prayer, Copeland (but we may not have a singer, so 2nd choice woud be The Prayer, Sager and Foster)

Entrance: Bridal Party: either Bridal Chorus, Wagner or Ode to Joy, Beethoven

         Me: Canon in D (or Rondeau, Mourt)

After Vows: Wedding Song-There is Love (or With this Ring, Copeland)

Recessional: Trumpet Voluntary, Purcell (or Prelude in Classic Style or Wedding March) 

We meet with music director Monday so have to pick soon! Seems everyone usually uses Cannon in D and I think it sounds the best...originally wanted something else, but now not so sure! Anyone not using a singer?
