People Are Sharing Totally Inappropriate Songs To Play At A Wedding (20 Songs)

Weddings! Romantic, expensive AF, and definitely not the place to play some of these songs.

(Full disclosure, I would 1000% play some of these — FOR THE LAUGHS.)

Thanks to u/combustion_assaulter‘s question on r/AskReddit:

“What’s the most inappropriate song to play at a wedding?”

I have an excellent list of things to request at my brothers’ weddings next year. Get ready, guys!


1. Hopefully not prophetic

Love the One You’re With, Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young.

2. Say Something

I was part of a wedding that they used Say Something by A Great Big World when the bride was walking down the aisle. I was speechless. I don’t think anyone besides me and my wife noticed either.

In case you don’t know the song…

And I will swallow my pride
You’re the one that I love
And I’m saying goodbye
Say something, I’m giving up on you

3. Avert suspicion!

It wasn’t me by shaggy.

I saw a couple play this at their wedding during the garter-finding thing. The groom kept pulling random shit like fuzzy socks and a McChicken out of the bride’s dress. While that song played. It was hilarious.

6. Oh NO.

My dad actually played I Hate Everything About You by Three Days Grace at his second wedding.

Their divorce was finalized three days short of their one year anniversary.

8. MEEP

I went to a wedding where the DJ played “Sexual Healing” during the Mother in law/son dance. It was glorious.

9. DOUBLE MEEP

My mother wanted to play Josh Turner’s ” your man” for our mother/son dance. She didn’t see why we thought that was a bad idea.

Paradise by the Dashboard Lights – Meatloaf

I swore I’d love ya to the end of time/ So now I’m praying for the end of time/ So I can end my time with you!

It was long ago, and it was far away/ And so much better than it is today.

really awesome tune, but it’s long at 8.5 min

15. Nine Inch Nails – Closer

So there’s an instrumental version of this that has apparently struck terror in the hearts of wedding guests when they heard the opening beats…

When the bride is coming down the aisle you play the Jurassic park theme

18. Crazy Bitch

One of the top posts at r/cringe used to be a bride singing this at her wedding. There were other families and children present. Fucking painful.

Every Breath You Take by The Police. Even Sting thinks it’s a bad song for weddings.
