Top 50 Spanish Songs For Your Party or Wedding
What are the top Spanish songs? Our list features songs appearing on Amazon’s Top 50 best-selling Latin chart as well as all-time favorites. The chart commonly showcases new artists and Latin superstars.
Is Latin Music Its Own Genre?
Latin music is a wide tent. It isn’t its own genre unless some of the curators are lazy. We tend to think of Latin music as only songs in Spanish. But they could also be in languages from the Caribbean or Portuguese. Brazil 66 anyone?

Which Are the Best Spanish Songs for Weddings?
There are two songs in Spanish that we encourage you to listen to first. “La Suite del Reloj” is a beautiful instrumental. “White Lily” is performed by Spanish artists and mixed in Mexico but the lyrics are in English.
- La Suite del reloj: IV. El reloj mágico – José Torres Trío
- White Lily – Rocío Guzmán, José Torres Vicente
With that in mind, Luis Miguel, El Sol de México, sings “El Reloj” which is perfect for a first dance. The lyrics are amazing. “She’s the star that lights my being.” Wow.
“Reloj detén tu camino
Porque mi vida se apaga
Ella es la estrella
Que alumbra mi ser
Yo sin su amor no soy nada”
What Spanish Songs Should I Play at My Wedding?
Typically, the Latin and Spanish song chart features songs on Amazon’s Top 50 best-selling Latin category. It commonly showcases the latest songs by popular new artists — not surprising. However, the list will regularly feature mainstay artists such as Selena, Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Marc Anthony, and Celia Cruz.
The Latin chart repeatedly ranks party bangers that have made their way into a Pop culture such as “Despacito,” “Mi Gente,” “Macarena,” “Suavemente,” and “Danza Kuduro.” So, our list has a wide variety of sounds, moods, and use cases. Basically, when you remove the ceremony, a wedding is a party. So, get your groove on, pick your partner, and get to dancing!
