A happy marriage is something to sing about. Whether you choose to play some of these songs at your rehearsal dinner or during the cocktail hour at your wedding, they will help set the stage for your big day.
Some are built on a fantasy, like Prince’s “Let’s Pretend We’re Married,” or Taylor Swift’s “Love Story,” while others reflect a young, eager love like the Beach Boys “Wouldn’t It Be Nice,” or Meghan Trainor’s “Marry Me.” And as the years go by, you can hear what married life can become in songs like “Grow Old With You,” by Adam Sandler and “The Good Stuff,” by Kenny Chesney.
We’ve rounded up the best songs that cover everything from popping the question to living happily ever after.
