    I'm looking for some Christian love songs to play at our wedding. I would love some that not only talk about our love for each other but also God.

    I LOVE the acoustic version of: (can't find the acoustic online though)

    The Day Before You by Matthew West... It's really a song he wrote about the day before he met God, BUT it totally works for a love song to.

    DH sang it to me on our honeymoon (it was my wedding gift) & then a couple weeks later I was listening to it and God just ministered to me in it! Best of both! =)

    My personal favorite is "Love is Not a Fight" by Warren Barfield.

    I've been keeping this song mostly a secret :) but I suppose I could share it here... we are doing our first dance to

    When I say I do by Matthew West

     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ui_FcYlI_NU&feature=related

    I am sooo excited for this song! Alot of the people coming to our wedding will not be christians and while we liked other songs for our first dance we really wanted a song that not only clearly told of our love for God and his blessing in our life, but also incorporated our commitment to each other and that marrige for us is not something we take lightly even though we are young (we'll both be 22). We WILL be married for life and we "mean what we say when we say I do" :)

     

    For our ceremony we are also having someone sing Love Never Fails by Brandon Heath

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nQy-aP_Koo

    Because it shows where our love for each other comes from and it's power in our lives... Plus it's such a beautiful song!!

    Also, we are playing beautiful thing by gungor. Its one of my FI's favorite songs and listening to it it's kinda great for a wedding.

    Fireflight's "Wrapped in Your Arms" is also a beautiful song.  May want to consider that one as well.

    We are doing a fully christian comtempo ceremony!  This isn't set-in-stone yet, but here's what we are thinking

    "All my fountains" by Chris Tomlin (play to "welcome" guest and set the mood after all guests are seated, guys make entrance)

    <another song not yet decided on> (for BM's and flowergirls)

    "Show you love" by Jars of Clay (I'm walking down the aisle to this!!!!!!!)

    <another song not yet decided one> in the middle ceremony for candle lighting

    "Rise and Sing" by Fee (when are pronounced husband and wife)

     

    These aren't the most obvious LOVE songs, but FI and I have a fun relationship and enjoy these songs.  We want our ceremony to be witness to ALL guests that the love of Christ brought us together and that we are honoring God by starting a marriage.  A live band will be playing as well....SO EXCITED!!!

    Must have done something right- Relient K

    Maybe not a wedding dance song, but we are having it as the song playing when we leave the church :)

    @Kake:  Oh my goodness, I discovered "When I say I do" a few months ago, and LOVE it! Gives me goosebumps and brings tears to my eyes...

    I'm trying to figure out how to incorporate it though. Currently our first dance song is "Soulmate" by Josh Turner (which has sweet Christian undertones), but I'm loving "When I say I do" so much.... I am thinking of playing the instrumental when I walk down the aisle, and perhaps play the whole song with lyrics while we are lighting our unity candle and praying together. Such a sweet song.

    But I definitely recommend "Soulmate" by Josh Turner too, it's such a sweet country song :)
