Song to walk down the aisle to....Ideas please!

Our ceremony site is very religious and only allows christian music or secular instrumentals. I was planning to walk down the aisle to 'January Rain' by David Gray, but once my FH heard it he said he wasn't a huge fan. He thought I needed a more grand song to walk to. (I had a melt down that he didn't love it! I nearly hate wedding planning and this song choice was the first decision and the only decision I had fun making. I love music and have a very wide range of likes)

So I need a 'grand' instrumental song/version of song that will make us both happy....any ideas?? THANKS!!! :-)

    I made the decision by myself. I felt like it was very personal and I wanted to surprise him so I didn't seek his input. I told him I found the song and it's perfect and it's what I can envision walking down the aisle to and that was that. I think it's ok to keep some things as surprises Smiley smile When I heard it, I just knew and I didn't want to be swayed in any way...

    I went with the traditional "Canon in D". My first choice was the instrumental to "Turning Page" by Sleeping at Last, but FH didn't like it, so we moved that song to the bridal party entrance. It's all about comprimise I guess lol.

    Another factor: Are you having a live instrumentals? Or is a CD being played?

    Well then, your at an advantage! It's a little more difficult (and more &dollarSmiley winking to have musicians learn music for you.
