[2025] A Must-See for Anime Fans! A Collection of Recommended Anime Songs for Weddings and Receptions

Accompanist / Piano InstructorYuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and have been contributing to music magazines and web media for over 15 years. Although Western music is my main field, I always strive to stay curious with the motto, “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in a band, where I was a bassist responsible for songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve performed on include bass, guitar, and piano. I resumed piano lessons after turning 40 and have been continuing ever since!

Merry-Go-Round of Life by Joe Hisaishi

A piece by Joe Hisaishi composed as an in-film track for the Ghibli anime Howl’s Moving Castle.

Featuring Hisaishi’s characteristically memorable piano set to a light, waltz-like rhythm, it’s an exceptionally beautiful composition.

Baby Sweet Berry LoveYui Ogura

Yui Ogura “Baby Sweet Berry Love” (LIVE 2019 “Step Apple” ver.)

Baby Sweet Berry Love by Yui Ogura

It was chosen as the ending theme for the TV anime “The Hentai Prince and the Stony Cat.” It’s a song full of compassion, with a clumsy girl trying her best to express her feelings, and it really made me want to cheer her on.

The determination to stay positive and do your best no matter what makes you feel that “we tend to forget our first intentions, but it’s something we should never forget.” It’s perfect for when you want to hold on to that feeling.

The song is cute all the way through, so it would likely make things feel more festive if played at a wedding or reception.
