FAQs

A good duet song has both artists having a part in the song so that they create a conversation with their voices.  Each singer has a valuable addition to the song to create an emotional outcome for the listener.

My list of duet songs is special because they celebrate love within a couple. None of the songs talk about being with someone while thinking of another. We did not rank the songs as all the songs make for great wedding songs. No beak-up love songs here.

Now that you have seen our favorite wedding duet love songs, would there be any that you think should be added to our list? Keep in mind that the song must reflect happy love and not sad love songs from a broken heart.
