When it comes to a church wedding, it seems obvious to choose Christian songs. But what about the wedding reception? Of course, you can choose Christian songs for your wedding party; they’re not just for the ceremony.

What is a Christian Song?

A Christian song has lyrics that align with the central teachings of the Bible. According to the Webster Dictionary, a Christian is a person who professes belief in the teachings of Jesus Christ.

It follows that Christian music projects the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Christian Songs and My Wedding Ceremony

Christian wedding songs are very appropriate during a wedding ceremony. Christian songs are very commonplace during the unity candle ceremony, processional and other activities encompassed in the wedding ceremony.

The wedding ceremony is when a couple professes their faith to one another before the Lord. Special Christian wedding songs can help signify the meaning of certain activities during a wedding ceremony in song. In addition, Christian songs can help portray the love for each other, the remembrance of a loved one, or a couple’s profession of faith.

Also popular during a wedding ceremony is to play Christian hymns. Christian hymns include Amazing Grace, All Things Bright & Beautiful, and Love Divine, All Things Excelling.

 

Is Christian Music a Genre?

Music is music. What makes a song Christian is the lyrics, not the style or genre of the music. Our best Christian wedding songs come from several genres including rock, jazz, and country.

What if the Artist is Secular?

Songs can be considered Christian without being sung from a categorized Christian artist. For example, a country artist like Carrie Underwood can sing a song that is both country and Christian. Her song, “Jesus Take The Wheel” is a good example.

Many categorized Christian artists have been accepted in mainstream radio.

      Hi Miranda. The song you are requesting is such a personal and spiritual moment. However, Lauren Daigle’s You Say may fit the moment.

      Hi Peggy. Thanks for your question. First, I would have you check out our list of Mother-Son songs here: https://www.myweddingsongs.com/wedding-song-lists/mother-son-songs/. Second, try not to confine yourself to “Christian” only artists. Just because a song is performed by a non-classified Christian artist, doesn’t mean the song is not a Christian song. “I Melt” by Rascal Flatts has been one of the most popular Mother-Son songs the past decade.

    Aren’t there any Christian love songs from more recent years? And some of these songs deal more with showing God’s love to the world rather than the love between husband and wife…

      Hi Abbie. Thank you for your feedback. Yes, we need to add more current Christian songs and will be doing so in the coming weeks. You can also consider other genres. Just because a song is a Country or Rock song does not mean it cannot be a “Christian Song”.

    I enjoy this list, but I have to say leaving off the original “God Gave Me You” by David Barnes and “Give me a Lifetime” by Anthem Lights is a bit of an oversight.

    I love How beautiful by Twila Paris and Be my guide by Brian Thiessen. They perfect songs for a wedding march into the church for the bride and groom respectively.
