Ceremony Songs - Mutual Agreements or Surprises?

Wondering how everyone has / is picking their ceremony songs. Did you pick them all yourself, mutually agreed with your partner or do you plan on surprising them with a song? Instrumental or Original Vocal Song

Let's share:

I'm having a variety of slow songs play as the guests make their way to their seats.

Groom/Best Man Entrance (still deciding-make a suggestion Smiley smile ) Tim McGraw - It's Your Love or U2 - All I Want Is You

MOH & Myself - entering to only one song - Peter Gabriel - The Book of Love

Signing - Surprising FH with Instrumental version of My Immortal by Evanescence

Recessional - Surprising FH with Top Gun Theme song - I know he will get a kick out of it. This song is perfect because it's long enough to get everyone out of the ceremony hall and into the Lobby area, where we plan on having a huge group shot

    We had one Processional song played as it was chosen by myself to fuse with the Indian/Civil fusion wedding. It was nice and meaningful of our relationship.

    My wife and I chose our songs together. For the wedding party entering, we used 'Marry Me' by Train (myself, groomsmen and bridesmaids all entered using this). For the recessional we used 'S-I-M-P-L-E' by Florida Georgia Line (my wife is a big country music fan).

    We mutually agreed to our song selection that pertained to both of us. I chose the stuff for our bridal party because she didn't care.

    For the ceremony, we used saxophone instrumental versions of a few songs and for her walking down the aisle, I surprised her by singing a cover of a song she picked to walk down to.

    Bridesmaids entering - Elton John's Can You Feel the Love Tonight

    Groom and Mom Entrance - 98 Degrees' I Do Cherish You

    Bride and Parents Entrance - Wayne Brady's Beautiful

    Signing - Elton John's Your Song

    Recessional - Michael Buble's Everything

    The boys get to pick their walk down the aisle song, and the rest will walk down to my song. Give the boys something fun to do.

    I picked all the music, it's up to him to pick the song.
