The Intruders "(We'll Be) United" is my favorite wedding song. And if you're yearning for a sappy love-fest go no further than Colin Blunstone's "Her Song."

Anyway, I have truly grown to appreciate the Howard Jones songs "What is Love?" and "Like to Get to Know You Well" as love songs I can actually... love. Before then, the most romantic, mushiest song I liked was "Our House" by The Beatles. Oh, ok, I take that back -- I do like some Anita Baker songs -- in fact, I quite adore a few of them -- but she was so smooth that it was easy to forget that these were straight-on love songs she was singing. If almost anyone else (I'm giving props to Sade here) sang these songs, I'm sure I would've retched, but Anita Baker saved them.
I think I would play all of the above -- and then confound the masses by playing something along the lines of Pete Shelley's "Telephone Operator". You know, because "Every Breath You Take" is just too subtle. ;)
p.s.: this board is very addictive -- hope you don't mind me barging in!

Maybe this thread should be changed to inappropriate wedding songs?

And more or less the entire "Blood On The Tracks".

"Young Hearts Run Free". It's 70s, it's disco, it's great, even your gran's heard it so it should be a wedding disco classic. But the lyrics ,oh so bitter and inappropriate.
