Love Songs for Weddings
A wedding is always a dream come true for people who are in love. Although we often hear people saying that it barely matters where are how they are getting married as long as they are marrying the perfect guy/girl, once the wedding date is finalized you can see them fretting over every little detail of the ceremony - the perfect venue, the perfect dress, and yes even the perfect song to be played in the background as they walk down the aisle.

The song played on your wedding day has to be special, with the right rhythm and the perfect words that capture the essence of your relationship. Most of the couples who get married usually have their ‘own song’ which is like their personal favorite and has many memories and emotions attached to it. However if you are one of those who still don’t have ‘their song’, here are some of the greatest love songs that will be just perfect for your wedding day.

I Can’t Help Falling in Love With You
Many of the people prefer classic love songs at their wedding. If you are looking for a classic, then this is perhaps the best pick. This Elvis Presley song remains to be a timeless hit and a truly romantic song with the magical voice of the King himself.

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can’t help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can’t help falling in love with you


Everything I do, I do it for you
Remember the way you felt when Kevin Costner rescued Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio in the Robin Hood movie? If you are a die-hard Bryan Adams fan, and a romantic to the core, this is the song you want to play at your wedding as you pledge your undying love to your Robin Hood!

Look into my eyes you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart, search your soul
And when you find me there, you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do, I do it for you


Endless Love
Yes the song from the Brooke Shields movie- Endless love. A beautiful ballad sung by Dianna Ross and Lionel Richie, perhaps the perfect song to be played at a wedding as you pledge your endless love to each other. Not many people know that the song is not just sung but also written by the duo.

You’ll be the only one
cause no one can deny
This love I have inside
And Ill give it all to you
My love
My love, my love
My endless love


Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You
Although originally recorded by George Benison, this song gained popularity with Glenn Medeiros’ rendition. This song has got just the right words to assure your loved one of your commitment and undying love.

Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought know by now how much I love you
One thing you can be sure of
I'll never ask for more than your love


I Want to Grow Old with You

Have you seen the movie Wedding Singer? Well if you prefer to think out of the box, then this Adam Sandler song has to be your pick for the wedding day. It is a no frills song and yes there is only one word to describe it - Cute!

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed if you’ve had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with you


Forever
Remember the beautiful black and white video with John Stamos in Full House where he sings this song? Yes this famous Beach Boys song is one truly awesome song to play on your wedding day. Beautiful lyrics, amazing harmony and soothing vocals, this Beach Boys’ song has got it all.

If every word I said
Could make you laugh
I'd talk forever (together my love)
I ask the sky just what we had
It shone forever (together my love )
If the song I sing to you
Could fill your heart with joy
I'd sing forever (together my love my my my my)
Forever…


Unchained Melody
Yes, the track from Demi Moore’s movie Ghost. The vision of Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze dancing to this melodious track is enough to inspire everyone in love. This Righteous Brothers track might be just the ultimate choice for your wedding day.

Oh my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time,
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love,
I need your love
God speed your love to me...


Well these are just a few suggestions. As for finalizing your wedding songs, listen to classic or contemporary love songs and pick out the ones that you would want to be played at your wedding. If you find the task too intimidating, it might be a great idea to curl up with your fiancée with a hot cup of chocolate on a lovely evening and listen to all the beautiful love songs together. Endless love….
