Oysterband - Blood Wedding
do you take this woman?
I said yes I do
I love her like crazy
and I think she loves me too
but we'll do without the family
if it's all the same to you
happy ever after
your mother is a flake
my father's full of shite
your sister says you married me
in white just for spite
well a party's not a party
till it ends up in a fight
happy ever after
There's another few verses in the same vein, including
and the best man is the worst man,
the best man is a beast
underneath the table
with the sister of the priest
the way he's going at it
she is probably deceased
happy ever after

I got the DJ at our wedding to play the intro to ugly kid joe's everything about you then cut into our actual first dance song. Nearly 20 years later the missus still give me the same disapproving look.
Not the first dance but we walked out the church to jimi Hendrix version of All along the watchtower... There must be some way out of here 🤣
Someone beat me to Oysterband - Blood Wedding, but another bit of misinterpreted genius had a mate wanting REM - The One I Love played at his wedding, until someone pointed out the "this one goes out to the one I left behind..." part
I take it we've had 'It's All Over Now'
Mrs Sandwich thought this would be a brilliant wedding party song until the chorus!
I’ll just suggest this.
Nothing Compares 2 U.
Or Troy.
Don't think this would go down too well in general...
C*m all over your f*cking face by the Spermbirds for me.
Watched The Wedding Singer the other night so this is an obvious one
Sometimes wish this has been played...

I nominate 'No Children' by the Mountain Goats.
"In my life, I hope I lie
And tell everyone you were a good wife
And I hope you die
I hope we both die"

"Then I got Mary pregnant
And man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress"
'Girls' by the Beastie Boys.
"I hope she'll say
"Hey, me and you should hit the hay"
I asked her out, she said "No way"
I should of probably guessed their gay
So I broke north with no delay
I heard she moved real far away
That was two years ago this May
I seen her just the other day
Jockin' Mike D to my dismay"
