Remember that you won’t be able to play anything with religious connotations at a civil ceremony, and you’ll need to provide your song choices ahead of time for them to vet.
And there may also be rules for religious ceremonies too - when it comes to your wedding church songs, you may be asked to give a list of your selections before the event, as some religious venues can be quite strict.
Here's our list of the best wedding songs for a Christian ceremony and celebration, along with Spotify playlists so you can decide your favourites.

How to Choose the Right Christian Wedding Song
Much like choosing any song for your wedding there are a few things to consider to make sure you get it right!
Firstly, think about your journey together and what kind of song might reflect that. Do you want something that's upbeat and fun or a song that's more reflective. You'll also want to consider the different moments in your wedding.
Your first dance song could be a more personal, sentimental song that you love as a couple, whereas you might want something more joyful and uplifting to walk out to as you exit the church.
Can I mix modern and traditional Christian songs at my wedding?
Absolutely! The beauty of your special day is that you can do whatever you want to reflect yourselves as a couple and mixing traditional and modern songs is a great way to do that.
Traditional songs tend to bring a sense of sacredness and nostalgia, whereas modern songs can be more expressive. To tie things together you could consider picking a general theme such as God's love or grace and choose your transition songs carefully so the tone flows naturally.
There are many ways to celebrate your faith as you tie the knot, but did you know that picking the perfect Christian songs is just one of them?
If you have a way with words and plan on making your ceremony a little more personal, here's an article where you'll find some beautiful ideas for your Christian wedding vows!
