O.k I am getting married June 5th at the Wynn in Las Vegas! I was talking to the wedding planner today and she gave me a week to have my music selection to her. I am using gospel music for the cermony!

I need a recessional song! Please help!

The songs I already have are:

Bridal Party Processional Seasons : Donald Lawrence and Tri city

Bridal Processional : The one he kept for me : Maurette Brown Clark

Unity Candle: The Prayer : Yolanda Adams

Recessional ???????????????

    I don't know if this is fitting for the recessional, but go to youtube and search for Usher Me - T.D. Jakes Love Songs and several other songs should pop up on the right hand side that will be related (i.e. gospel love). Maybe you can find something you like. Someone had a really good list...there is a thread about it here, but it is probably a couple of monts old if you want to search for it.

    If you want the recessional to be a little more upbeat I would check out some songs by Kirk Franklin or Tye Tribbett and GA.  If you want it to be remain a little on the slower side, I would def use I promise (or also called The Wedding Song) by CeCe Winans. I Just Wanna Be Close to You by CeCe and BeBe is also a good one to use.  BTW- I luv the song you are using for your processional!!!  My ;ittle sister is singing it for us at either the reception or cermony (haven't figured that out yet).  GL

    I know it's a little old but how about Kirk Franklin's Melodies From Heaven.  The remix/jazz version is really nice.

    Great list...I was thinking of using Seasons and The One He Kept for Me in the same way. I am still considering Seasons, but stumbled upon a few other songs that I may want to use for my processional.

    Congratulations on the check!
