Best Songs for Wedding Videos in 2025

How to Choose the Right Music for Your Wedding Films (Without Losing Your Mind)

Let’s be real - music can make or break a wedding video.

The right wedding video music brings out the emotion, sets the pace, and ties the whole story together. Whether you're deep into editing wedding films, or just starting to plan your next project, your soundtrack has to feel right. That’s what separates an okay video from a goosebumps-worthy wedding film.

And if you're offering wedding videography and outsourcing the edit, you still want your final product to sound like you. Music choice is a huge part of that.

So - where do you even begin?

Start with the Vibe: Romantic, Cinematic, or Upbeat?

We've broken down our favorite wedding video songs into three easy categories. Each one works for a different kind of couple, story, and moment
