But ideas of more romantic tone. The main one I am having difficulty with is the entrance. I dont like the typical wedding march song so any ideas welcome!

 'Feels Like Home' by Randy Newman is a great wedding song! There are loads of versions but my fave is the one by a lady called Chantal Kreviazuk.
You can find it on the soundtrack to Dawson's Creek or on the 'How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days' soundtrack.
Congratulations! xx

I suppose 'Get Me to the Church on Time' would be inappropriate, but congratulations to bride and groom.
Some non-classical ideas:
Then Came You, Dionne Warwick with the Spinners
For Once in My Life, lots of artists do this one, Michael Buble for one
It Had to Be You, (that was the song we danced to at our wedding), lots of artists again, Michael Buble and Harry Connick, Jr among them
Happy Together, The Turtles (that one might not be quite romantic enough, but it is peppy!)
Let's Stay Together, Al Green
Is there a theme for the wedding? Day or evening? Any other songs picked out yet?

 Hi! Spring movement from the Four Seasons is lovely, as Clarey said, but the composer is Vivaldi.
Mozart never wrote anything on the seasons, but there is some lovely work of his on church music! If you have a singer, "Laudate Dominum" is lovely.
I've been asked to do a wedding in July, actually, where the bride would like me to sing "Ave Maria" as she enters. There is one by Schubert, which most people know, and one by Gounod, with accompaniment by Bach, which is a bit more dramatic.
Another lovely tune is the Flower Duet from Lakme, which you could ask to be played on the piano instead of being sung. (It sounds great sung, but the words have nothing to do with love nor marriage. Mind you, it's in French, so who cares!)
Good luck and congratulations on the coming wedding!
