First in the procession are the bridesmaids accompanied by the groomsmen (whole bridal party w/ maid of honor/ best man last) Next the flower girls/ ring bearer. Lastly, the bride with her companion, usually dad or another male of high esteem to the bride. Very lastly, the tears.
The groom is waiting on the alter. The mothers are usually "ushered" in w/ older siblings or people you have selected to usher. You could also ask your priest/ vicar.

Well for the groomsmen, they can either A walk in with the groom (following him down the aisle or through a side door), or B walk down the aisle with the bridesmaids. Maid/Matron of honor is last. Then comes the ring bearer. Then the flower girl(s). Then the bride.
Mothers of the bride and groom go down before the bridesmaids enter. The groom's mother and father first, then the bride's mother. Grandparents come before the parents. Usually the women have an usher. Sometimes the husband can be the usher. That's a personal choice. So it would look somethin like this:
Groom
Groomsmen
Grandparents of Groom
Grandparents of Bride
Father and Mother of the Groom
Mother of the Bride
Bridesmaids
Maid/Matron of Honor
Ring Bearer
Flower Girl(s)
Bride and Dad

From Emily Post's Etiquette,pp.780-81:
"The procession is arranged according to height with the two shortest ushers leading.Junior ushers walk behind the adults. Junior bridesmaids come nest,if there are any.If not,the bridesmaids come directly after the ushers,two and two,also according to height,with the shortest in the lead.If there are only two or three,they walk singly.After the bridesmaids,the maid or matron of honor walks alone;flower girls follow,then the ring bearer,and last of all the bride on the right arm of her father.If there are both maid and matron of honor,the maid of honor immediately precedes the bride.If there is only one flower girl and ring bearer,they may walk together instead of seperately.
Before the ceremony begins,about 5 to 10 minutes before the processional,the head usher offers his right arm to the mother of the groom,the father following behind,and they are escorted to their seats. The groom's parents can also walk in together and follow the usher to their places.The head usher or a brother or cousin of the bride walks the mother of the bride to the first pew on the left.(p779)
At the appointed hour,the procession forms (in the vestibule if it's a church wedding,otherwise at the appointed place),and a signal is given to the groom and the officiating minister/clergyperson that the ceremony is about to begin.
The sound of the processional mucis is the cue for the minister or priest to take her/his place,followed by the groom and bestman.Ushers then take their places.The bride's procession then enters.

I used the trumpet solitare and the oh so worry-unfastened Cannon D. My suggestion could be asking whomever is doing the song on your wedding ceremony. they could have the terrific concepts. reckoning on while the marriage is, you ought to apply some thing seasonal like dance of the sugarplum fairys for the females?
