I always like the idea of walking down the isle to Tom Petty's 'Here Come's My Girl'.

Maybe coordinate a cute little dance routine with your bridesmaids. But that's just me and I'm nutty like that.

I'm a church organist/pianist and in my opinion the best processional is Trumpet Voluntary by Jeremiah Clarke or Canon in D by Pachelbel. That list someone sent you is quite long, but I thought I'd narrow it down for you.

I don't know the name of the song but I walked down the isle in my wedding dress while the organist played. it's the same music/song that princess diana walked down the isle when marrying prince charles. you can ask a church organist to help you that's how I found out. this was in 1983 so you may have to do some hard looking. wished I know that name for you. good luck. I thinks it's a classical song.
