The sister to my Worst Songs To Play At A Funeral thread, what do you guys think are some of the worst songs to play at a wedding? As with the other thread, I'll give a few of my picks.

No Lie, but this really did happen...
I'm a wedding singer, and my friends asked me to sing for a "Trailer Park Wedding"... it was held outside, people were wearing blue jeans and bandanas and everything else you'd expect, and it was all fun and games, until time for me to get up and sing the song that THE BRIDE requested of me when she walked down the aisle. I asked her a million times if she was sure this is what she wanted, and finally I begged her to change it, but she said she chose her song and was sticking to it.
What song did I sing, you ask??
Long story short, the Grooms parents stormed off because they didn't think it was funny, and everyone had to sit there while the ENTIRE WEDDING was delayed. One of the craziest days of my life.
Duh-dun Duh-dun LOLOL

Duh-dun Duh-dun LOLOL I mean, that song is a bop, but I probably wouldn't request it as my walking-down-the-aisle song if I were the bride. With that said, it could've been worse...

Iβve heard this played as a wedding song far too often but itβs actually depressing because they're getting dumped.
βSo good-bye, please donβt cry. We both know I'm not what you needβ

I once went to a wedding where they played Boyz II Men's "I'll Make Love To You" during the father/daughter dance... such a bizarre choice LOL

A song that somehow actually gets played at weddings, One by U2. Here are some of the "loving" lyrics:
Have you come here for forgiveness? Have you come to raise the dead? Have you come here to play Jesus To the lepers in your head?
Did I ask too much? More than a lot You gave me nothing, now it's all I got We're one, but we're not the same Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again.

Surprised nobody mentioned this infamous wedding staple:
On another note, while the movie itself was underwhelming, there is a pretty funny tongue-in-cheek scene in 2008's "Made Of Honor" (with Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan) where they're attending the wedding of the protagonist's father - a wealthy sugar daddy type, and this song starts playing on the wedding reception party...very fitting π

Yes, this is really me saying this: That song is a BIG guilty pleasure, but it doesn't make sense to play at a wedding.

When I get married (whatever century that happens to be in) I will specifically instruct the DJ not to play "Don't Stop Believin'" and "Sweet Caroline"
