10 sensual songs to set the mood on your wedding night
From tender lovemaking tunes to wild, wild numbers, here's the playlist you need for a night of passion!
Movies tend to have some of the most romantic musical moments. Like in Pretty Woman when Richard Gere sweeps in with his fancy limo to stop Julia Roberts from leaving, with the theme song by Roy Orbison playing in the background. Or when Justin Timberlake pulled off a flashmob at Grand Central Station in Friends with Benefits to win over Mila Kunis, and they share that romantic kiss as 'Closing Time' by Third Eye Blind plays in the background. But then what? What happens after the big kiss after you've tied the knot, and are making your way to the bedroom?
You don’t want an anticlimactic end to your romantic setting, especially on your wedding night; and silence is something you must avoid at all costs. And a good honeymoon playlist is just what you need to get in the mood on your wedding night! Below, we have compiled a list of 10 sensual songs that make for the perfect honeymoon playlist.
I Wanna Be Yours—Arctic Monkeys
One wouldn’t expect a song like this from the popular rock band, Arctic Monkeys, but they did and it turned out to be pretty good. It has a strong presence and will surely dictate the passion in the room.
Saibo—Sachin-Jigar, Shreya Ghoshal, Tochi Raina
We had to include this gut-wrenchingly romantic Bollywood song; it's the perfect combination of mushy and sensual and basically describes the feeling of falling in love slowly and then all at once.
2U—David Guetta, Justin Bieber
This song by David Guetta, featuring Justin Bieber, was released in 2017 but still has a hold on us today. It talks about souls intertwining and calling it a romantic song is an understatement!
All Mine—Brent Faiyaz
If you haven’t heard of Brent Faiyaz, you're missing out. R&B is his forte and his songs are known to be bold, boasting a fair amount of graphic words that might inspire you on your wedding night.
Movements—Pham, Yung Fusion
This song is the epitome of passion! With strong beats and a smooth tempo, this one was written for a rough (but passionate) night.
Want U Around—Omar Apollo, Ruel
If you're yearning for a tender, passionate night of lovemaking, then this one is for you. This is a heartfelt romantic song that centres on a sense of yearning. Moreover, the instrumentals in the background are what truly make this song a perfect choice for your wedding night.
Earned it—The Weeknd
If we know anything about Abel, it’s that he knows exactly how to get you in the mood with his music. And this one has a really cool tempo; it's a little more nuanced compared to his other songs. To top it off, this song was part of his album for 50 Shades of Grey. Need we say more?
Freak—Doja Cat
This song is for the ladies! Doja Cat is known to express her sensuality through her music and that is exactly what this song does. It used the sample of the romantic 'Put Your Head on My Shoulder' by Paul Anka to create a sensual melody with innocent instrumentals and some animated lyrics, promising you a good time.
Let Me Hold You (Turn Me On)—Cheat Codes, Dante Klein
Another graphic song, but a little less than some of the songs on this list. This one includes some cool electronic elements that are sure to make your romantic night a more playful experience. We love a passionate night, but having fun is just as important!
Wild Thoughts—DJ Khaled, Rihanna, Bryson Tiller
If you want to be as effortlessly sexy as Rihanna, you have to put yourself in her shoes. As the title suggests, this song is sure to bring out your wild side, encouraging you to get out of your comfort zone.
