Then, customize it however you wish.

Music to your wedding video

Consider where you will be sharing your wedding video music. It doesn't matter if you are watching the video at home. If you intend to share your video online in any way, including all or part of it, licensed music will be required. Social media sites won't take down or mut a wedding video song that is protected by a music licence.

You can find many licensed wedding songs in our music library, even if you have never used them before. To narrow down your options, you can also check out our posts about songs for anniversary videos and songs to use for wedding videos.
