    It all just depends on what you're looking for. Do you want your girls and yourself to walk down to classical/tradional music? Or are you looking for something more on the fun and or contemporary side? Once you know that you should be able to come up with some ideas. I googled and researched a bit and even went through my own itunes playlist.

    The version by Israel Kamakawiwo Ole'  of Somewhere over the rainbow, is something beachy and fun you could do :).

    Just have fun with it. Our bridal party in walking in to I Believe in a Thing Called Love by The Darkness. I hope I helped some! Good luck! :)

    Are you hiring a musician or playing from a DJ/sound system?  If you are hiring a professional violinist for example, I'd just let them pick something traditional, one less thing to worry about.  My friend played violin for a few weddings and she said brides always just told her to play whatever she wanted.  Weird I know but it doesn't really matter I guess.

    what kind of music do you like/want? classical? pop? country? are there any songs that have significant meaning to you and your fiance?

    do you have a musician or DJ already booked?

    for what it's worth, i always discourage use of "somewhere over the rainbow" because of it's meaning--running away because the grass is greener on the other side. not the best message for a wedding. at the very least, use the instrumental version of that song. please pay attention to lyrics.
