Processional Songs - Wedding Ceremony Songs

Walking to the altar from behind wedding guests to start the wedding ceremony is customarily set to music. The people walking down the isle could include as much as the entire wedding party to as few as the bride herself. This is known as the processional. In addition, the same can be said for the exiting of the wedding party and all guests, the recessional. However, the bridal couple starts the recessional after the announcement of the new married couple to their guests from the minister. Then, the wedding party exists followed by the wedding guests from front to back rows.
