20 Wedding Songs to Skip Unless You Want Your Wedding to Be Like Everyone Else's

Everyone thinks their wedding is the most beautiful, the most creative, and the most fun — but according to Spotify's 2015 wedding music statistics, first dance songs and reception playlists are pretty much the same across the globe. The music streaming service released its findings over the Summer with a list of 20 songs that are the most popular globally. Not surprisingly, John Legend's ballad "All of Me" is the top choice for tying the knot, while Jason Mraz is a favorite for first dances. When it comes to the songs that get guests out on the dance floor, the most played reception songs include Bruno Mars's "Marry You," Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud," and even "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke. It's not all new radio hits that made the list, though, as "At Last" by Etta James and "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis Presley are also popular old-school choices. Check out the list below now, and maybe consider cutting them from your own wedding playlist in favor of more original fare.
