Recommended Western wedding songs for men: moving classics and popular hits (31–40)
When a man loves a womanMichael Bolton
This song used in the 1994 film “When a Man Loves a Woman” was sung by Michael Bolton as a cover, but I recommend his version because it doesn’t feel as dated.
I love the key change partway through.
The lyrics are about how a man will sacrifice anything for love.
LoveNat King Cole
Since this song falls into the jazz category, it’s recommended for those who want a slightly stylish, more mature vibe for their wedding.
It includes the line, “Love is all that I can give to you,” which is quite a passionate phrase.
Kiss the GirlSamuel E. Wright
This is a song from the Disney movie The Little Mermaid, and it plays in the scene where Prince Eric is encouraged to kiss the mermaid Ariel.
If you use it at a wedding, it’s sure to get the guests excited.
I’ll Be ThereThe Jacksons
It’s a song from when Michael Jackson was still a child, but his vocal power has a range that doesn’t seem childlike.
His cute voice seems to add a softness to the melody.
The phrase “Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter” is great—it’s like saying, “Let me fill your heart with joy and smiles.”
Marry MeTrain
It’s a gentle song with a simple acoustic guitar melody that doesn’t feel very much like rock music.
People who like rock-style songs might enjoy it.
The phrase “merry me”—meaning “marry me”—is simple and makes you want to hum along, doesn’t it?

I Will Always Love YouWhitney Houston
A gem-like love ballad that powerfully sings of eternal love.
It conveys the poignant sorrow of having to choose separation despite deep affection, along with a pure wish for the other person’s happiness, all carried by Whitney Houston’s crystal-clear voice that resonates in the heart.
Released in November 1992 as the theme song for the film The Bodyguard, this legendary masterpiece topped the U.S.
charts for 14 consecutive weeks.
It continues to move listeners with a timeless emotion that never fades.
Perfect for the wedding recessional, coloring the moment you take a step into a new life.
As a message song pledging eternal love to someone special, it will be etched in your heart.
My GirlThe Temptations
Even though oldies are from long ago, don’t they feel stylish somehow? The chorus that goes “My Girl” is simple and easy to convey to the woman you love, right? Try singing that phrase along with the song.
