Friend is getting married in a week, would love some showtune suggestions about weddings/marriage. Happy ones though - not Marry Me A Little or Not Getting Married Today

Walking by a Wedding from If/Then immediately came to mind.

Please and thanks!

The song that comes to mind is "The Next Ten Minutes" from The Last Five Years. In the context of the show, the couple does break up, but as a stand-alone song, it's absolutely beautiful.

I think I remember Santino Fontana saying that Victoria Clark sang "They Were You" from The Fantasticks at his wedding.

A song that I've always wanted played at my future wedding is "The Human Heart" from Once On This Island. I will love that song until the day I die. Hope this helps!

Also, for the sake of 2020, just do "Wartime Wedding" from Over Here!

Loooove The Next Ten Minutes! I’m not familiar with the others (though I did SEE Once On This Island), will be checking them out - and revisiting OOTL. Thanks so much!

Are there any highlights from either It Shoulda Been You or A Catered Affair? Shows with weddings that spring to mind, but don’t remember the score all too well.

Can't actually think of many:

-- I Do!  I Do! from I Do! I Do! (as opposed to three I Dos from Mamma Mia)

-- Not Getting Married Today and Marry Me a Little from Company

-- Love and Marriage from Our Town (TV production)

-- I've Decided to Marry You from Gentleman's Guide (a stretch)

-- If Mama Was Married from Gypsy (a stretch)

-- You're Gonna Love Tomorrow and Love Will See Us Through from Follies (sorta)

-- Married from Cabaret

-- An Old Fashioned Wedding from Annie Get Your Gun

I think there was one in Fidder on the Roof as well--Lin Manuel did this whole flash mob at his wedding with it.

Quite a few things from THE WEDDING SINGER, but my favorite might be "It's Your Wedding Day".
