The Etta James classic is a wedding favorite for many reasons, as it\u2019s all about finding great love \u201cat last.\u201d Who that has found such love can\u2019t relate? Lyrics include At last my love has come along\/ My lonely days are over and life is like a song, oh yeah\/ At last the skies above are blue\/ My heart was wrapped up clover the night I looked at you. Awwww.<\/p>\n

\u2018A Thousand Years\u2019 by Christina Perri<\/p>\n

A newer wedding song, this tune by Christina Perri was used as the theme to Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1<\/i>, which features the wedding of the glittery vampire and his human paramour.
