This series considers the best wedding songs from the list of musical greats. This week we look at the best Elvis Presley wedding songs. No artist on this list recorded more quality love songs than the ‘King’ himself, songs such as these:

Love Me Tender

Burning Love

Hawaiian Wedding Song

The Wonder of You

I Want You, I Need You, I Love You

Nonetheless, one stands above them: “Can’t Help Falling In Love.”

The Knot (an online wedding planning platform) conducts annual surveys of wedding trends. Guess what the most popular first wedding dance song for 2023 and 2024 was? Wait for it:

“Can’t Help Falling in Love” by the King himself, Elvis!

They interviewed 17,000 recently married couples who prefer a song released six decades ago over more contemporary songs. The song is just as strong lyrically as musically. The first verse is timeless:

Wise men say,

“Only fools rush in.”

But I can’t help

Falling in love with you.

Elvis songs still get 20 million listeners per month on Spotify. Not bad! And of the songs we’re presenting in this series of the Top Selling Music Artists in History, none exceed “Can’t Help Falling in Love” according to the Knot’s survey.
