Well, I got married last New Year's Day. I really don't like Wagner,
so I threw out "Here Comes the Bride" and walked down the aisle with 
a tape of "Night Scented Stock." The a capella harmonies sounded quite 
surreal in the sanctuary, and the song fit in with the nighttime theme 
of the rest of our music (Moonlight Sonata, "Music of the Night," Rondo 
from _Eine Kleine Nachtmusik_).

Whatever you decide to do, best of luck to you and your fiance!
