10. God Gave Me You by Blake Shelton

For the religious couples out there, God Gave Me You may perfectly illustrate how you two feel together. Although Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert aren’t together anymore, the lyrics and the emotion are still very fitting. You two were meant for each other and for the journey you’re about to embark upon. Slow dancing and staring into each others eyes, this country wedding song will be everything you’d ever wanted and more.
