What's your recessional song?

Have you picked your song for your recessional, yet? What is it? FH and I love oldies music and right now we've talked about "Hold On I'm Coming" by Sam and Dave, or "Land of 1,000 Dances" by Wilson Pickett. We're looking for something happy and upbeat for our first walk together as a married...

Have you picked your song for your recessional, yet? What is it?

FH and I love oldies music and right now we've talked about "Hold On I'm Coming" by Sam and Dave, or "Land of 1,000 Dances" by Wilson Pickett. We're looking for something happy and upbeat for our first walk together as a married couple. I'm still looking for more inspiration, as I'm not totally set on the choices yet.

    We're doing Forever by Chris Brown. We wanted something super upbeat and fun!

    We had trouble deciding on a recessional song since we have such different taste in music. We ended up choosing This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) by Natalie Cole.

    Say Yes by Kristian Bush

    For some reason now it's the main song I relate to our wedding day so I 100% ugly cry every time I hear it

    @Amanda - it's the song/music you walk out to after the ceremony.

    Procession - walking in

    Recession - walking out

    Ours is the traditional Wedding March played by a string quartet

    (And yes, the procession song is Bridal Chorus!)

    @amanda the song that plays when you are done with the ceremony and you and your spouse and wedding party walk out to.

    We did "the adventure (acoustic)" - angels and airwaves

    River Flows in You by Yimura. I prefer instrumental to lyrical.

    We both agreed on Michael Jackson's "Love Never Felt So Good." Smiley smile We were back and forth between wanting an upbeat song or a song without lyrics but I'm glad he liked my choice, lol.

    Probably will be "I Got You" by Jack Johnson, but played live by our DJ (guitar and vocals). It's a beach wedding, so I think it fits pretty well!
