Top Blake Shelton Wedding Moments
- The Premier First Dance: “God Gave Me You.” Originally by Dave Barnes, Blake’s 2011 version became an instant wedding classic. Its lyrics about being “stitched together” by love make it an incredibly powerful choice for a first dance or a romantic processional.
- The Modern Duet: “Nobody But You” (feat. Gwen Stefani). Released in 2020, this powerhouse duet is a great first dance option for modern couples. It’s a literal vow of exclusivity, perfectly capturing the feeling of wanting no one else but your partner.
- The Sentimental Mother-Son Dance: “The Baby.” If you are looking for a song that captures the bond between a mother and her son, this 2003 hit is the definitive choice. It highlights the protective, unconditional love of a mother, regardless of how old her “baby” gets.
- The Upbeat Cake Cutting: “Honey Bee.” Because “honey is sweet and so is cake,” this 2011 #1 hit is a fan-favorite for the cake-cutting ceremony. Its playful, summery vibe also makes it a great “background” track for cocktail hour.
Expert DJ Tips for a Blake Shelton Set
- The “Groomsmen” Anthem: For a fun moment dedicated to “the boys,” look no further than “Boys ‘Round Here”. It’s a high-energy track perfect for a garter toss or a groom’s special dance with his groomsmen.
- Long-Distance Love: If you and your partner navigated a long-distance relationship before the big day, Blake’s 2007 cover of “Home” carries significant emotional weight. It’s also a beautiful choice for a parent dance, reminding everyone that “there’s no place like home”.
- Admiring the Bride: “My Eyes” (feat. Gwen Sebastian) is a fantastic mid-tempo dinner track. Its lyrics focus on a man admiring his lover, making it a great “subtle nudge” for the couple to share a smooch during the meal.
