Nashville artists are good at a lot of things, including pumping out heartbreaking ballads and tunes that make perfect country wedding songs. They’ll make you laugh, they’ll make you cry, and they might even make you line dance.
They’re also sometimes bad at other things (like how every song in 2014 was about jeans, beer, and trucks), but that’s neither here nor there. Here are forty-five country wedding songs that would each be an excellent choice for your wedding reception, including quite a few that will just flat-out make you sing a long (loud).
