Are you going with more traditional, classical or modern kinda music?

Here's what we used for our recessional:
Spring (S. Lautenbacher) clip

If you're going for modern, I love U2's "It's a Beautiful Day"!

we love just about any type of music... I love orchestra music probably the most..

We are contemplating using the 4th movement of Beethoven's 5th. When I first heard in as an undergrad, I cried (lame, I know) and then recently I thought that it would make a great recessional!

here is a clip

My sister suggested (jokingly?) "Ave Maria" or the Hallelujah chorus for ours.

Prelude to Te Deum by Charpentier - glorious!
