It's no secret that music plays a huge part in your wedding and the events leading up to it—your playlists can seriously make or break the atmosphere! So, who better than one of the world's top music streaming services to give us insight into the most popular music to-be-weds chose for their special day(s)? Our friends at Spotify exclusively shared with us the most-streamed songs of 2020 from wedding-related playlists.
Timeless classics like "At Last" by Etta James and Haley Reinhart's rendition of "Can't Help Falling in Love" were, unsurprisingly, two of the most-played first dance songs, while "I Don't Care" by Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber and "Sweet but Psycho (Morgan Paige Dance Remix)" by Ava Max ranked among the most-streamed songs on bachelor party-themed playlists. A mix of old-school and contemporary songs, like "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper, "WAP" by Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B, and "Truth Hurts" by Lizzo found their way to the top of bachelorette party-themed playlists, with "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls ranking in at number-one most streamed.
As for the most popular songs and artists overall, John Legend's "Conversations in the Dark" took first prize for the most streamed on first dance-themed playlists in the U.S. None other than Ed Sheeran was the most globally streamed artist for weddings and related events, with Bruno Mars and Dan + Shay close behind. Plus, likely due to the pandemic, Spotify told us there was a major global increase in the creation of "micro wedding" and “intimate wedding” playlists.
Below, discover Spotify's top 80 wedding-related streams of 2020.
