8. Um..my bf and I plan to get married and if any of these songs are played I'll have to leave early! These songs suck! Though..I don't know what would be a good wedding song..I am thinking one by Greg Macpherson. He's good. Also, I like "I Go To Barn Because I Like The" by Band of Horses. Also "Lamb on the Lam(In The City) by Band of Horses. That one is only 50 seconds long but I get chills when I hear it. Ahhh...I gotta marry that guy soon!!!!

14. The song I walked down the isle to was "AT LAST" by Celine Dion. I still get teary eyed when I here it or Etta James version as well. For me it truly was AT LAST as it took me a few tries to get it right! LOL I agree there are probably many songs to choose from but they are just listing the MOST POPULAR! AT LAST wasnt so popular when we got married but glad it is now because it is a beauty!

26. Great list and my favorite of the list is "At Last". Back in January, Etta James got all bent out of shape when Beyonce sang the song for Barack Obama's inaugaration saying that "At Last" was HER song. Actually, the song "At Last" was written back in 1942 for The Glenn Miller Band with music and lyrics written by Harry Warren and Mac Gordon. If the song belongs to anyone, it's the Glenn Miller estate.

29. Where was "May I have This Dance"? Should have been in the first five at least. Or "Because of You" by Tony Bennett?
Posted at 1:45PM on Jun 9th 2009 by Ray
30. A song that didn't make this list, but should have is "FIRST DANCE" by a relatively unknown artist named COREY SMITH. It is BYFAR one of the best wedding songs out there. It was the song my wife and I used for our wedding. I think you can download it for free on his web site at http://www.coreysmith.com/music.cfm or via http://www.coreysmith.com.

31. Fogedda bout it....My wedding songs were "SHE'S A BRICK HOUSE" and the last song of the night was "I'M JUST A LOVE MACHINE". I know you are all humming them right now. What could be better than those two songs to secure a new marriage.

46. These songs are ok, but if you want your wedding to be first class, hire Extreme Productions LLC, Sacramento, CA your professional DJ. Matt or Larry are as professional as anyone could hope for, very knowledgeable and outstanding timing and lighting. They deliver what you want and much much more. You will never forget your big day with this company as your chosen one.

47. You left out the best, maybe not a big hit record, but, "If I Should Fall Behind" by Bruce Springsteen is an amazing wedding song, As a matter of fact, my daughter just used it at hers last weekend.
