    Processional: Your Hand in Mine by Explosions in the Sky (We're Friday Night Lights fans)
    Bride Entrance: Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis Presley (FI loves Elvis and this really has been "our song" since high school)
    Recessional: not 100% sure yet but I'm thinking of either Stolen by Dashboard Confessional or doing something fun like Wifey by Next haha.  Wifey was one of the songs he put on his first mix CD that he made for me in high school :)  I still really like Stolen though so I'm not sure...

    As far as music for seating for the parents - I didn't think of that.  Is there supposed to be a separate song?

    No, you definitely don't need that, but we liked the idea.

    We're not completely decided but here are our thoughts:

    Parents: Moon River, Instrumental
    Processional: Into the West, Instrumental
    Bride: Your hand in mine, Explosions in the Sky (also huge Friday Night Lights Fans)

    Our recessional is going to depend on what our first dance song ends up being.  If it's not 311-Love Song, I'd like to use that (maybe the vitamin string quartet version) for our recessional.

    Bridal party processional - Jesu Joy of Man
    Bride (after waiting 10 seconds to let it "build") - Canon in D
    Recessional - Trumpet Voluntary
    We are also going to incorporate the Ave Maria into the middle of the ceremony somehow since it is traditional for the women in my family.  We'll probably give roses to the mother at this point.
