Wedding Song Ideas

Many moons ago I spent time searching on the web for songs for my wedding. I found that I had collected lists of songs along the way. I thought that I would create a central place that I could share these lists.

Ceremony: Recessional Songs

Music played after couple is announced as husband and wife.
Your recessional should inspire your guests to stand up and cheer you on as you hustle down the aisle. Some may be used for a Postlude. This aims to move the guests out quickly after the recessional.
