How to Create a Country Wedding Playlist for Every Moment

As an experienced wedding DJ, I’ve assembled a list of country wedding songs. Songs are selected by the meaning of the song and popular hits by today’s couples.

Current country music has a more “Pop and Rock flair” and less twang than yesteryear. If you enjoy country songs from the past few years or classic favorites, you will enjoy our list of romantic country love songs for weddings (fast and slow).
