The are a vast number of "hymns", songs and musical pieces that may be sung at a church wedding, therefore it is almost impossible to list all the hymns that would be acceptable. The hymns/songs that are not acceptable are secular in nature. ie: "You light up my life" had been a favorite of many a bride. The is not appropriate, being hedonistic in tone. The last line being "How can it be so wrong if it feels so right?"

Yes. There is really no difference between Catholic hymns & Protestant hymns. Both Protestants and Catholics are Christians. Catholics have some extra ones that have to do with the Eucharist, Mary, & other Catholic beliefs, but Catholics and Protestants share the majority of hymns. For example, did you know that the popular song "Your Grace is Enough" was originally written by a Catholic? Chris Tomlin, the artist most people think wrote the song, borrowed and adapted parts of the melody of it from Catholic singer Matt Maher. Catholic and Protestant artists and composers borrow songs from each other and share them with the general public both in CD form and in hymnals for church.
I hate my country's hymn :P
There are a variety of books Christians may choose to sing from, but the most popular is a book of Hymns. This book is used during church services.

The congregation of Calpurnia's church sang their hymns enthusiastically and in harmony, with a lively and emotional expression. They sang with feeling and passion, inspiring a sense of community and spiritual connection among the worshipers.

While Christian rock is growing popularity, there are still many people that enjoy listening to hymns. The majority of people listen to CCM in the Christian Music genre, more than rock or traditional hymns. However, Hymns have not died out in the church. In fact, most Christian rock artists, and CCM artists, sing hymns as well as their Christian rock songs when they perform live.
