Landslide
1975, Fleetwood Mac

This poignant song about growing up was originally released on one of Nicks’ first albums with Fleetwood Mac, but it achieved its height of popularity with the release of The Dance in the 90s. It speaks of growing from a child into an adult and looking back on lessons learned, and that is why many brides choose to play it while sharing a dance with their father.

Rhiannon
1976, Fleetwood Mac

This song defines the career of Stevie Nicks more than any other, and many consider it to be the best song that she has ever recorded. It is a song that any bride would be happy to include on her list of wedding reception music thanks to its empowering portrayal of womanhood.

Edge of Seventeen
1982, Bella Donna

Stevie Nicks wrote and recorded this song in tribute to the late John Lennon, but it has become an anthem for all young people who are caught up in the glory of their late teens. It can be played as the first dance song for the new couple, and it also makes a nice soundtrack for the sendoff.

Dreams
1977, Rumours

This song by Stevie Nicks is one of Fleetwood Mac’s most requested songs, and it is often chosen for weddings because of its themes of commitment and devotion. Nicks’ vocals are hauntingly sublime, so be sure to use the original recording of the tune if you want to create a tender wedding moment.

Gypsy
1982, Mirage

This song is the celebration of a free-spirited young woman who is at peace with her place in life, a message that many brides can relate to on their wedding day. It has been used in many ways for modern weddings from processionals to recessionals and all parts in between, but using it as a simple dedication to the bride at the reception would be a nice touch.

Sara
1979, Tusk

This song was written for Nicks’ bandmate Mick Fleetwood as a tribute to Fleetwood’s wife, and it contains powerful imagery of a fairytale romance. “Sara” should be played while the couple is lighting their unity candle, or it can serve as the song played while the important family guests are being seated.

Seven Wonders
1987, Tango in the Night

Themes of myth and magic are often found in the works of Stevie Nicks, and this song is no exception. It celebrates the kind of love that can transcend the ages, and also special memories between two people that are meant to last a lifetime.

Secret Love

Nicks is vocally at her finest on this solo hit, a wedding song choice that could serve as an alternative processional. It can also be added to the reception song choices, and some couples also save it for after the celebratory toasts.

Crystal
1998, Practical Magic

The simplicity of this song’s expression of love and longing makes it a good choice for modern wedding ceremonies. It can be used for many parts of the celebration, but the best use may be as a processional.

Leather and Lace
1981, Bella Donna

Nicks combined her talents with those of Don Henley on this love song, a tune that can relate to both the bride and groom on their wedding day. It hints at the differences that make love between two people special, and it is a great song to play for the first reception dance.

Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You?
1985, Rock a Little

Every bride wants to let her new husband know how important he is, and this song is one that can be played especially for him at the wedding reception. Some brides have even sung the song for their spouse with the house band or a backing track, but dancing with him while it plays is enough to send a loving message.

Lady
2014, Lady

A wedding is a time to remember a woman as a lady at her most beautiful, and it should also be a time for everyone to celebrate the importance and strength of womanhood. Celebrate her by having this song played in her honor during the wedding reception, giving all your guests a chance to shower her with the attention she deserves.

She Loves Him Still
2014, 24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault

Every couple wants a love that will endure throughout the ages as they grow old together, and on your wedding day, you will promise to love one another eternally.
