Top 10 Best Wedding Songs of All Time
The perfect wedding playlist is essential for creating moments you and your partner will remember for the rest of your life. Whether you want something with a slow tempo or upbeat tracks, your wedding playlist must fit the wedding theme you are going for. Diamond Heaven has picked the best wedding songs to feature in your upcoming wedding.
Beyonce - Love on Top
Beyonce’s funky, joyful classic is a throwback to R&B legends Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder and Luther Vandross. Whether you enter the wedding venue, reception, or your first dance, the versatility of Love on Top makes it a fantastic song to feature on your wedding playlist. The varying tempo changes will have everyone on their feet smiling and dancing.
Bryan Adams - (Everything I Do) I Do It For You
Bryan Adams’ epic 1991 ballad spent nearly four months at the top of the UK Singles Charts. Adams’ raspy voice mixed with the melodic guitar solos from Keith Scott makes Everything I Do a must-have song to include on your wedding playlist. Whether you plan to play it while walking down the aisle, entrance or first dance, there will be no dry eyes inside the venue.
Etta James - At Last
Etta James' classic ‘At Last’ makes for an incredible first or last wedding dance song, leaving everyone in the venue on the verge of tears. With the jazzy nature of the song, combined with Etta’s smooth and powerful voice, you and your partner will be dancing into the future, knowing you did it, and everyone is here to celebrate on your wedding day, at last.
Oasis - Wonderwall
90s anthems don’t get more iconic than Wonderwall. Oasis’ seminal song from (What’s the Story?) Morning Glory is a track that will get everyone in the venue singing at the top of their lungs. While everyone will want to sing along to Wonderwall, it is an excellent song to end the wedding night all together on the dancefloor.
Shania Twain - You’re Still the One
No wedding playlist is complete without a showstopping hit from Canada’s Queen of Country Pop. Shania Twain’s You’re Still the One is the perfect first dance song to play as a married couple. We guarantee there won’t be many dry eyes as you and your partner waltz to Shania’s classic country pop ballad in front of all your family and friends.
The Darkness - I Believe in a Thing Called Love
If you plan to add a splash of rock and roll to your wedding day, then The Darkness’ I Believe in a Thing Called Love fits that category well. Why not get your wedding guests on the dancefloor to belt out the song’s high notes? We guarantee everyone will have fun and get involved mixing two families into one whilst channelling their inner rock gods out to a modern rock classic.
Taylor Swift - Lover
The title track from Taylor Swift’s 2019 album, Lover is a popular choice if you and your partner are devoted Swifties. Whether you decide to use it as the opening song or midway through the ceremony, the lyrics sound like wedding vows. If you and your fellow guests are Taylor Swift fans, we recommend including Lover on your wedding playlist!
Ben Howard - Only Love
Ben Howard’s breakthrough hit Only Love’s themes of love, travel and adventure will instantly get you and your partner dancing. The combination of powerful lyrics with a recognisable beat is the quintessential wedding song to include if you enjoy the great outdoors.
Bruno Mars - Marry You
When it comes to staple songs to include in your wedding playlist, you cannot go wrong with Bruno Mars’s Marry You. Perfect for a wedding party entrance, it will set the tone for the entire post-ceremony celebrations. If you want to get your guests involved, why not add some choreography to the Marry You dance routine? It is an excellent way to get everyone clapping along and dancing on the dancefloor.
The Lumineers - Ho Hey
Are you looking to add a modern folk rock classic to your wedding playlist? The Lumineers’ 2012 hit Ho Hey is an excellent song to slow dance with your partner. While the spotlights are dimmed on the dancefloor, the gentle, upbeat melody of the song will make your special day even more memorable.
