Alternative Catholic Wedding Processional Songs

So understanding that I cannot have any secular music for the processional I really really would like an alternative to the bridal march, spring, and the trumpet tune. Any suggestion for more modern/mellow processionals that are still good with the Church?

    It might be really helpful to ask the music director at the church to provide you a list of songs that are approved. Then you can go online & search for them to hear what they sound like. Pretty sure my English is amazing there but I've only had 1 cup of coffee so far...

    Pachelbel's Canon. Super pretty and church appropriate.

    Oh, and Bridal March (Here Comes the Bride) is not allowed in the Catholic Church-it's considered a secular piece.

    Thanks everyone I will look into those ones!

    Rynney1979 thanks I will ask her next time I am in town. I never knew that about the bridal march, then again haven't been to many catholic weddings as an adult.
