A collection of iconic female friendship songs: must-hear tracks for women guests at weddings
When attending a friend’s wedding, it’s quite common to be asked to put on some kind of performance, isn’t it?
In addition to performances like dancing or singing, female guests on the bride’s side often read a letter as a gift.
And for any performance like that, BGM is essential.

We hope this will be helpful not only for female guests planning a performance, but also for brides looking for a song to play when they leave the room with their friends during the reception.

A playlist of sisterhood anthems: must-hear classics for female wedding guests (41–50)
Bond.haji→
It’s a song by Haji→ that captures the intense friendship between men.
Although it’s not specifically themed around weddings, the soaring chorus is moving, and I think even men might find themselves tearing up when they hear the lyrics.
It’s filled with the sentiment that this friendship won’t change no matter where we are—that we’ll always have each other’s back—and, just like the title suggests, it’s a song that lets you truly feel the depth of their bond.
Singing it together with your buddies and ending in a big chorus that pulls in the groom as well would make for a great memory.
Happy Pre-Wedding SongYabai T-shatsu Yasan
One of the signature songs by the rock band Yabai T-Shirts Yasan, the single “Pineapple Senpai,” is included on the album “Galaxy of the Tank-top.” Its powerful, fast-paced sound directly conveys a sense of fun and liveliness.
The lyrics, told from the perspective of friends egging someone on to get married, are also a highlight.
While the content can come off as irresponsible, the lack of restraint can also feel like an honest depiction of an unpretentious friendship.
There’s also a version with adjusted lyrics to make it more suitable for wedding receptions, titled “Happy Wedding Mae Song (Won’t Break Up Within 2 Years ver.),” so be sure to check that out too.
Wedding SongSaitō Kazuyoshi
Wedding Song by singer-songwriter Kazuyoshi Saito.
It’s said that only the chorus was initially written for a commercial for the wedding magazine Zexy, but due to an overwhelming number of inquiries, it was eventually released in full.
With its simple guitar and gentle vocals, this masterpiece slowly warms the heart.
It’s a song you’ll want to sing while savoring every word of the lyrics.
LindaTakeuchi Mariya
When it comes to songs to dedicate to a friend who’s found happiness, you can’t leave out Ann Lewis’s “Linda.” It’s said that Mariya Takeuchi, a friend of Ann’s, wrote the song for her when her marriage to Masahiro Kuwana was decided.
Takeuchi also recorded a self-cover on her 1981 album “PORTRAIT.” The lyrics, addressed to a friend who has experienced many romances and finally met her destined partner, really warm your heart when you listen.
Be sure to sing it for the bride, who’s at the peak of her happiness at the wedding!
HappinessChe’Nelle
Che’Nelle is a singer who shines with her beautiful, powerful vocals, and her signature song “Happiness” is widely used at weddings and beloved as a love song.
But when you look at the lyrics, that passionate, profound affection can also be interpreted as celebrating the bond between best friends, right? We may not know Che’Nelle’s true intention as the lyricist, but being able to have our own personal interpretation like this is one of the wonderful charms of music.
It’s a lovely song you’d want to send to a friend who’s feeling down.
best friendJuliet
It’s a friendship song by Juliet, a female twin-vocal duo.
Set to a ballad, it’s a slightly moving track that declares a promise to remain best friends for life.
If you quietly send this song to a close friend you’ve argued with or feel awkward around, your feelings will surely get through.
Female friendships may seem fleeting and fragile at a glance, but when true feelings are shared, they’re actually strong.
This is a song that lets you rediscover that.
BetelgeuseYuuri
This moving song, inspired by stars shining in the night sky, celebrates the bonds and friendships between people.
It gently portrays overlapping feelings and moments of closeness, impressively expressing the importance of memories that last forever.
Yuuri’s warm vocals and the grand melody resonate together, creating a work that deeply touches listeners’ hearts.
Released in November 2021, the song was written as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “SUPER RICH,” and surpassed 500 million streams in October 2023.
It’s a perfect track for those seeking a way to mend or say goodbye to a friend, or for anyone who wants to deepen their connection with someone important.
