Movies also played a big role in the list of best wedding song ever. Movies feature mega hits like Armageddon with I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing, and Ghost with Unchained Melody.
I have two favorites that I would like to share (knowing they are not regularly played around the country but…) Buble’s “To love somebody” and a new one “Bigger than us” by Michael Rice. I’d take out Usher’s “Hey” (for graphic content maybe making grandmas heart rate go up and Bruno’s “Uptown funk”… fun song but too club scene for me. I do think your list is great and I thank you :) again this is just a personal thought and y’all made a great list :)
Thank you, Rain for your song suggestions. We will consider a different song for Usher.
