The ultimate wedding playlist you need for your big day

It’s definitely not an easy task to plan your dream wedding without feeling pre-wedding stress. Got a hundred and one things to do on your wedding checklist and hoping for all of them to be magically ticked off? Sadly, that’s not going to happen (sorry to burst your bubble), but what you can do is plan things ahead of time before overly stressing out about the timeline.

The littlest things make the most difference—and in this case, your wedding playlist. There are many highlights to a wedding ceremony—from the bride and groom‘s processional down the aisle, their first dance and the reception party. Each moment should be complemented with great tunes to commemorate these milestones and keep those lovey-dovey feelings high.

Of course, a wedding playlist should always reflect your and your partner’s personality, tastes and love story. However, you’ll also have to do a balancing act to ensure your guests of all ages feel included and have the best time at your reception party.

With that in mind, we’ve gone ahead and put together not one or two but three wedding playlists to help save you time and stress. From sappy love songs to fun bops, we’ve got every moment of your wedding covered with our playlists—just hit play!

If you’re not getting married (or planning a wedding anytime soon), these playlists can still be right up your alley if you feel like tuning in to a mushy love song or two. Also, dare we say that they’re also perfect for 1) dramatic sing-your-heart-out moments when you’re behind the wheel, 2) going to a friend’s wedding (to hype up the moment), 3) in need of an instant serotonin boost, and more scenarios.

The perfect songs to walk down the aisle to

This is the moment everyone waits with bated breath. In our playlist below, we include songs that will make this special moment an unforgettable one for everybody present. While we love songs with romantic lyrics, we’ve also included plenty of instrumentals in case you want to take your time down the aisle. If you’re one of those couples who prefer a more fun rather than emotional approach, don’t worry, we’ve also got you covered!

Play these songs during your first dance as a couple

You’re done with the wedding processional and now it’s time to celebrate your first moment as an officially married couple! The first dance is one of the most important highlights, so you’d need a befitting soundtrack to make that moment significant in your books. We made sure to include a range of possible first dance songs, from swoon-worthy ballads and dreamy classical orchestras to cheeky dance numbers for the quirky couple.

Let loose and have fun at your wedding reception party

It’s time to close out your celebrations and our playlist below will guarantee that your wedding goes out with a bang! So grab your partner, hit the dance floor and party to your heart’s content with your loved ones all around to these tunes.
