It's that time of year again, when Mariah Carey's dulcet tones fill us with joy, and we don't mind our supermarket exclusively playing dodgy cover versions of Christmas songs. If you're planning a Christmas wedding chances are, you're as much of a nut about the most wonderful time of the year as we are. Which means your festive nuptials call for the perfect Christmas wedding playlist. We're not suggesting you ask your DJ to play Christmas songs all night long - that'll get old, fast - but a big party at Christmas does call for festive hits sprinkled throughout the day. Think festive floor fillers for dancing, toasty crooner tunes for the drinks reception, winter hymns for the ceremony, romantic indie songs for dinner, and of course, the cheesy tracks that officially mean, "It's Christmaaaaaaaas"!
Our Spotify Christmas Wedding Playlist
To help you choose which Christmas songs to feature throughout your wedding music, we've rounded up over 40 of our faves in one handy Christmas wedding playlist featuring pop hits and classics. Just follow it on Spotify, and you'll have it for every future festive gathering (and while you're at it, check out more of our helpful wedding playlists and tips on choosing wedding music.) This is a Christmas playlist that works for any yuletide do!
