Good Luck and God Bless !!
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.

You're going to want Canon played by a small orchestra.
the arrival of the queen of Sheba - sorry I can't remember who its by.
Pacabels canon in d.
Both are gorgeous pieces of music!
can't wait till I get married - just so you get to walk down the aisle to one of them! LOL! Jokes!
