00:00Welcome to MissMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the best wedding songs

00:07to add a little LOL to all of the L-O-V-E.

00:16Will You Love Me Tomorrow – The Shirelles

00:18So you've just spoken your vows and declared your love for each other in front of all of

00:22your loved ones, and while it might be true that love fades and people change, we'd like

00:32to think it would take more than 24 hours post-wedding for that to happen.

00:44That makes Will You Love Me Tomorrow by The Shirelles a great song to add some ironic

00:49laughter to the festivities.

00:50Whether it's your entrance song or your first dance, this one might shock people at first,

00:55but once they get the joke, it will be some good LOL-ing times.

01:019.

01:05Don'tcha – The Pussycat Dolls Featuring Busta Rhymes

01:09Unless it's some kind of throuple wedding, or one of those gotcha YouTube videos, the

01:13one topic of conversation no one expects at a wedding is talk of the husband's girlfriend.

01:18Which has to put The Pussycat Dolls' 2005 hit track, Don'tcha, on our list.

01:30As a first dance, or if the bride and her bridesmaids do a dance, Don'tcha is a good

01:34funny choice.

01:38However, may we recommend using it as your walk-down-the-aisle song for maximum impact

01:46as the dolls ask, don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?

01:50And technically, until they say, I do, she's still his girlfriend.

01:53So really, his girlfriend is hot like her.

01:56Because she is her.

02:008.

02:03Grow Old With You – Adam Sandler When it comes to funny wedding songs, they

02:06don't always have to get their laughs from ironic lyrics.

02:09Grow Old With You is a perfect example of that.

02:20Using the climactic win-back-the-girl scene in 1998's The Wedding Singer, Adam Sandler's

02:25sweet, funny, heartfelt song had most of the audience swooning, probably just as much as

02:30Drew Barrymore did.

02:40So why not break this one out as a first dance?

02:43Or even better, if one of you can play the guitar and sing, perform it live to your new

02:46life partner and watch the guests laugh and swoon around you.

02:547.

02:59Call Me Maybe – Carly Rae Jepsen Playing this song at a just-met, got-drunk,

03:03got-married-in-Vegas wedding would be more cringe than funny.

03:07However, playing this at a wedding of a long-time couple tying the knot, well, that's some cute

03:11stuff right there.

03:18Now it would be a bold comedic choice to use this song as the bride's walk-down-the-aisle

03:22music, but we're thinking that the first dance is the perfect place to break this one out

03:27and get some laughs from the guests, as Carly Rae Jepsen sings,

03:36although we're also totally down with the Call Me Maybe wedding party flash mob also.

03:456.

03:50Love Stinks – The J. Giles Band Peter Wolfe, the singer of the J. Giles Band,

03:54was married to actress Faye Dunaway for five years in the 1970s.

04:04In 1979, he co-wrote the song, Love Stinks, about unrequited love gone bad.

04:09Was he writing from a place of pain following his divorce?

04:12We don't know for sure, but what we do know is that such a song isn't generally considered

04:17ideal wedding day music.

04:26In The Wedding Singer, the song even got Adam Sandler punched in the face.

04:30But if done properly, with the right amount of tongue-in-cheekness, using Love Stinks

04:34as your introduce to the newlywed song could be downright hysterical.

04:445.

04:49Another One Bites The Dust – Queen While this one is pretty good as an entrance

04:53song, we think Another One Bites The Dust works even better if used as the recessional

04:58music.

05:03As our favorite Golden Girl, Sophia, would say,

05:06"...you and the love of your life have just made it official with the I Do's and sealed

05:10the deal with a kiss."

05:17Now as you head off back down the aisle as a freshly married couple, the music announces

05:22to the world that Another One, actually two, have bitten the dust and turned their backs

05:27on singlehood.

05:28If the guests aren't laughing, then you invited the wrong people.

05:344.

05:37Highway To Hell – ACDC There are those who, after some unhappy years

05:42and a contentious divorce, might refer to their marriage as hell.

05:48But that sure ain't the attitude most people go into it with, especially on their wedding

05:57day.

05:58And that's exactly why this classic ACDC song is a perfect one to surprise people and

06:02get a few laughs out of the crowd.

06:12Use it as your recessional tune, your entrance song, or maybe best used as your exit music

06:17as you get into the car to drive off into marriage bliss.

06:21Highway To Hell will add some hard rockin', guitar riffing, tongue-in-cheek good times

06:26to your special day.

06:313.

06:37Wannabe – Spice Girls Busting out a first dance to a song with lyrics

06:40that demand, "'If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends," might seem

06:44like an odd choice for the occasion.

06:53To us, though, it shows that you have a sense of humor and a nostalgia for the 90s that

06:57we definitely appreciate.

06:59We've all seen the videos of women catching their fiancé sleeping with their best friend

07:03on their wedding day.

07:04And while that isn't funny at all, playing wannabe at your wedding, now, that's something

07:09we want.

07:10Something we really, really want.

07:18We also really wanna zig-a-zig-ah, but that's for a different list.

07:242.

07:27Stuck In The Middle With You – Stealer's Wheel

07:29Jerry Rafferty and Joe Egan of Stealer's Wheel wrote Stuck In The Middle With You as

07:34a disparaging account of a music industry party.

07:44The clowns and jokers are references to music executives and various sleazy industry folk.

07:50Now, of course, we all love our friends and family, and couldn't imagine our wedding day

07:53without all of them there, but that doesn't mean we don't all have a few clowns and jokers

07:57on our guest lists that can laugh at themselves and would be fun to point out in a loving

08:10way.

08:11So why not just do the Michael Madsen dance from Reservoir Dogs, and surely get some cheers

08:15from the crowd?

08:16But maybe skip the cutting off someone's ear part, okay?

08:421.

08:4350 Ways To Leave Your Lover – Paul Simon

08:45While a roadmap on various ways to get away from your lover isn't normal wedding day fare,

08:50when it's wrapped up in this catchy beat and fun rhymes, it's sure to get some giggles.

09:02Throwing it on your recessional takes some courage, given that you've literally just

09:06finalized the marriage, but that could also be your best opportunity for some laughs,

09:10and even more so if the groom's name happens to be Jack, or Stan, or Roy, or Lee.

09:22If the new husband's name is Gus, and you're able to time it so that as the song plays,

09:26he breaks free and hops on a bus, well, talk about comedic perfection.

09:35Would you consider any of these songs to add some LOL to your day of LOVE?
