This song also features piano, and its melody is perfect for a romantic wedding.

Michael Jackson – I Just Can’t Stop Loving You [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

It’s a love song by Michael Jackson that everyone knows.

Don’t you think Michael’s gentle, soaring voice is perfect for weddings? The line “My life ain’t worth living if I can’t be with you” seems like one you could use, meaning: If I’m not with you, my life isn’t worth living.

The Archies – Sugar, Sugar (Official Animated Music Video)

This is also a slightly old song, but I chose it because the lyrics are very simple and the tune has a cheerful feel.

Did you know that in America people call their loved ones things like “sugar” or “honey”? It’s not a song about sugar and honey!

Crafted by American artist Bruno Mars, this lively number beautifully blends doo-wop rhythms reminiscent of 1960s pop with a modern pop sound.

Included on the 2010 album “Doo-Wops & Hooligans,” it received high acclaim on charts around the world.

The track has also enjoyed extensive media exposure, including its use on the TV show Glee and in a viral proposal video on YouTube.

It’s the perfect song for a proposal or as background music for an anniversary video—a gem of a love song that expresses deep affection for someone special with a bright and joyful touch.

John Mayer’s smooth vocals and acoustic guitar beautifully convey an intimate atmosphere.

Released in June 2002 and included on the album “Room for Squares,” its charm captured many hearts, earning the Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance in 2003.

As long as you love meBackstreet Boys

Backstreet Boys – As Long As You Love Me (Official HD Video)

It feels like something from a British idol group, but the melody is beautiful, isn’t it? The lyrics say something like, “It doesn’t matter who she is or where she’s from—what matters is that you love me.” I wonder if there aren’t more people than you’d expect who want to express this kind of sentiment to someone they love.
