Hey everyone, I’ve been messing around with some stuff for a Christian wedding recently and thought I’d share what I’ve been up to. It’s all about picking the right tunes for the big day, you know, those Christian wedding ceremony songs. It’s been quite a journey, let me tell you!
First off, I started by thinking about what kind of vibe we wanted for the ceremony. Something that feels holy but also super joyful, you get me? So, I dove into a bunch of playlists online. I listened to a whole lot of songs. Some were way too cheesy, others too old-school. But there were a few gems in there.
Then, I remembered a song I heard at a friend’s wedding a while back – “Perfect Union” by Matthew Ward. There’s this line in it, “There’s a love that lasts a lifetime,” and it just hits you right in the feels. So, I added that to my list. It’s got that perfect mix of deep meaning and a nice tune you can hum along to.
Here’s what I’ve been playing around with:
-
First up, for when the bride walks down the aisle, I found a couple of options. “A Thousand Years” by Christina Perri – it’s pretty popular, but for a good reason. It’s just beautiful. I also stumbled upon “God Gave Me You” by Dave Barnes and “Love Never Fails” by Brandon Heath. They’re both awesome, talking about love in a really sweet, God-centered way.

Then I thought, we need something for when they’re doing the whole prayer thing. “The Lord’s Prayer” by Andrea Bocelli came to mind. I also found someone did a version of it with The Mormon Tabernacle Choir. That is some powerful stuff, makes the whole thing feel even more special.
I played these for my friend who’s getting married, and she totally loved them. But we figured we need a few more, just to have options, you know? So, I’ve been digging around for more songs. I realized it’s not just about the music, but also the words. They gotta mean something, especially on a day like that.
I tried looking up some instrumental stuff too, like piano and orchestral versions of Christian songs. There’s something about that classical vibe that just feels right for a wedding. I found a few playlists dedicated to Christian wedding songs, and man, some of those arrangements are just breathtaking. They give you all the feels without needing any words.
It’s been a fun ride, putting this playlist together. I feel like I’ve learned a lot about what makes a good wedding song. It’s not just about it being a Christian song, but it’s gotta have that special something that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, you know? And it’s gotta fit the couple’s style too. After all, it’s their big day!
So yeah, that’s my little adventure with Christian wedding ceremony songs. Hope you guys find it helpful. If you’ve got any suggestions, hit me up! I’m always on the lookout for more awesome tunes. I think we got a pretty solid playlist now, but there’s always room for more, right?
