Another One Bites The Dust
Bohemian Rhapsody? (Maybe that’s used more at Commitment Ceremonies.)
“My Ding-A-Ling” by Chuck Berry
Ave Maria
Crap!! It’s the intro song to my wedding video. Hell if I know. And don’t tell my wife.
Are you talking about Pachelbel’s Canon in D?
D major that is
Lindsay is right; it is Ave Maria.
Ave Maria is not a Christmas song.
all I know is Canon is played at just about every wedding as the wedding party comes in, and Trans Siberian Orchestra recorded Christmas Canon which is very popular
Go Tell It On the Mountain.
Is it “The Thong Song”? “You’re the Reason God Made Oklahoma”? “Say Goodbye” by Triumph? “What About Me?” by Moving Pictures? Anything by Quarterflash? I could do this all day.
I believe you’re thinking of “Sexecutioner” by Gwar.
It is not Ave Maria, Canon in D is correct.
Ave Maria was my first thought - but what most people recognize as the “wedding” version is Shubert’s, and often the “Christmas” version is Franz Biebl’s. The St. Mark’s choir just did a version in their Nine Lessons and Carols on Tuesday, but I’m not sure from which composer (it wasn’t Schubert).
If the wedding had a Renaissance Faire theme, I would say “Greensleeves”/”What Child is This?” would be your song.
Pweesey got it, listen here.

Bach’s “Sheeps may safely graze” is often played at weddings, and is also a Christmas song… Trying to find a link to it, but i think looking on iTunes for it will be more successful.
Good lord. Sheep. not Sheeps.
“Hill Street Blues” by Mike Post? “Affair of the Heart” by Rick Springfield? “Living Inside Myself” by Gino Vannelli? “I Go Crazy” by Paul Davis? “Caught Up in You” by .38 Special? Do you just want me to download my iPod list?
Christmas Canon isn’t played at weddings.
Wait. White Wedding by Billy Idol. Yep, that’s it.
Could be “Fur Elise.” Or “Boot Scoot Boogie,” they’re pretty much interchangeable.
The Macarena
Taco Bell Gordito in B Flat?
Santa Claus is Coming to Town. If you know what I mean.
Oh Holy Night???
Whose Child Is This?
I Saw Mommy Kissing The Best Man?
Groomsmen We Have Heard Are High?
I’ll Be Home In Time For the Wedding?
O Little Town of Cozymel?
Run Groom Run?
Did You Hear What I Heard?
Grandma Got Run Over By A Ringbearer?
Rock me
“Forever in Blue Jeans”
“Chet’s nuts roasting on an open fire”…
That’s if it’s Chet getting married.
“I Knew the Bride When She Used to Rock and Roll”
in the spirt, What about “Merry Christmas from the Family”?
but more wedding,ey
“the way you look tonight” by everybody
oops, I mean’ “There is Love” by Gordon Lightfoot, and then everybody…t
“Oh, Holy Sh*t”…?
If it ain’t, it oughta be.
Tell Josh Groban, whose Christmas album is #1 right now, that Ave Maria is not a Christmas song! I’ve never heard Pachelbel’s Canon considered a Christmas song.
Everyone’s a comedian.
“Everyone’s a comedian.”
Hear that Little? You are SO replaceable. Merry Christmas buddy.
