“Ready for the Good Times,” Shakira
Here are some wedding recessional & send-off song ideas–including Spanish and country suggestions. Also see the most requested recessionals across the US.
The recessional song is a fun, upbeat, celebratory song played at a somewhat higher volume after you’ve kissed at the end of the ceremony (as you walk back down the aisle to exit). The send-off song has the same high-energy vibe but is played after the Last Dance as the newlywed’s make their “Grand Exit.”
