The song that takes me back would be Love Can Make You Happy by Mercy.
When Vic and I got married after college, we asked a priest who was a relative if we could have The Wedding Song by Peter, Paul and Mary. It wasn’t 100% religious, but we had it. The song expresses a divine presence, “He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts.”
We actually had several songs at our wedding that weren’t traditional religious songs after Father Engler, my mom’s cousin, convinced the local priest at St. Mary’s in Manchester to let us have these songs.
Love Can Make You Happy
Color My World (Vic also sang this song at all our kids’ weddings)
Song of Joy
We’ve Only Just Begun
I found our wedding program as I was thinking back about that time and remembering the music.
