2014 Hit Wedding Songs!

“Closer,” Tegan and Sara – With this great modern version of a favorite ’80s dance hit you can incorporate a classic in with your modern style wedding music playlist!

Best Song Lyrics: “Here comes the heat before we meet a little bit closer/Here comes the spark before the dark, come a little closer”

“I Don’t Dance,” Lee Brice – According to theknot.com, “No top wedding song list would be complete without at least one country hit, and of all the songs there are to choose from, this is our favorite. The lyrics are actually about a shy groom’s first dance (sound familiar?). Despite what the title might suggest, it’s actually perfect for dancing!”

Best Song Lyrics: “I don’t dance, But here I am/Spinning you around and around in circles/It ain’t my style, but I don’t care/I’d do anything with you anywhere”

“Mirrors,” Justin Timberlake – This song is about a metaphorical reflection of couples being one and the same. With beautiful lyrics and a semi-upbeat tempo, there’s a great deal of ways to use this song during your wedding reception. With it’s symphony-sounding back beat, “Mirrors” could easily be turned into a unique first dance.

Best Song Lyrics: “I’m lookin’ right at the other half of me/The vacancy that sat in my heart/Is a space that now you hold/Show me how to fight for now/And I’ll tell you, baby, it was easy/Comin’ back here to you once I figured it out/You were right here all along”

“The Moon Song,” Karen O – According to theknot.com, “When we watched Karen O perform this song from the soundtrack for the movie “Her” at the Oscars, we couldn’t help but think what a perfect song it was for those quieter moments at the wedding. If you’re looking for something a little more mellow with an acoustic sound to play for your first dance, look no further than “The Moon Song.”

Best Song Lyrics: “There’s things I wish I knew/There’s nothing I’d keep from you/It’s a dark and shiny place/But with you my dear/I’m safe and we’re a million miles away”
