There are three considerations here
1. The length of the walk; is the piece just for the bride or is it to also include bridesmaids as well? Two songs could be played here, especially if the aisle is a very long one.
2. Will it be played live or off a cd/mp3/ipad/ipod
3. Does it have a special meaning for the bride and groom. (it was playing when/where they met.)
There is not a correct song; it is your wedding so choose one that is appropriate to you
Hello,
Any song that you love would be appropriate. I usually advise my brides to have something on the slower side (not a death march though) so that our photographer can get some great shots of you walking down and the look on your grooms face when he sees you. Then you can have a bit of fun with the music for the signing and really bounce it up for the leaving. Pick music that you and your fiance like after all it's your wedding.
Have fun.
another one bites the dust by Queen
There are so many songs to choose from. One of my favourites is "The Book Of Love" by Peter Gabriel. However it's not about me, it's about you. Dig deep into your memory and come up with a song that means something to you and your partner. If you still come up with nothing, just google "songs to walk down the aisle to" and you will find numerous sites that have lists of songs.
The song I would recommend is what the bride and groom want to be played, it's got to be what the they would like, not me, I as a celebrant have an obligation under the Code of Practice .The whole ceremony is to be tailored to their specifics.

I recommend looking up wedding playlists on Spotify - they are updated regularly with new additions as well as classics.
