Recessional

The organist or musicians typically play a song while the bride, groom, and wedding party leave the altar area after the ceremony.. Although there is no right or wrong song selection, many couples choose to keep the music for their ceremony somewhat traditional. Traditional choices may include:

• Allegro (from Symphony #4) – Boyce
• Allegro Maestoso (Water Music) – Handel
• Hornpipe (from Water Music) – Handel
• Psalm 19 – Marcello
• Prelude in Classic Style – Young
• Now Thank We All Our God – Post
• Rigaudon – Campra
• Rondeau (“Theme from Masterpiece Theater”) – Mouret
• Trumpet Tune – Clarke/Purcell
