Getting married soon, and struggling with a song for the recessional. We have an instrumental piano for the processional.
I am thinking something along the lines of "Angel" by Sarah McLachlan, minus the dark theme of drug addiction or whatever it is about.
Any ideas? Umm and no I don't think we will go with "Another one bites the dust"

Hubby and I skipped out to "Here Comes Your Man" by The Pixies. We wanted to do something different.

Here are a few sites that may help, there are even clips so you can listen to the choices. I would go with something upbeat, Angel is kind of low key and depressing. More of a funeral song in my opinion. You just tied the knot! Find something that just shouts happiness and joy.

lol... I was honestly going to suggest "Another one bites the dust"... lol. Try something classical - how about "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by Johann Sebastian Bach - it's a light, classical happy tune - that's what I used.... I kinda wished I would've used Another one Bites the Dust.....

A friend of mine had the 'Hallelujah Chorus' played :)
I'd like to walk back up the Aisle to 'It Had To Be You'.

I love Beethoven's "Ode to Joy"! A friend had it for his recessional and it was so beautiful.

"wind beneath my wings" or "song of an angle" any thing soft and flowing will work!! Best wishes in planning your special day!
