    These Are The Most Popular Wedding Songs Of 2016, According To Spotify

    If there's a wedding and "All of Me" isn't played, did the wedding even happen?

    Spotify just released a list of the most popular wedding songs for this year, and even if you've been to only one wedding in the past 12 months, you won't be surprised by the findings.

    According to Spotify, there are more than 6.7 million wedding-themed playlists around the world.

    The streaming service examined all of them and created categories featuring the 50 most common first dance and wedding reception songs.

    Out of those playlists, Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud,” is the most popular first dance song in the world, and Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" is top among reception songs. (At 683 million streams, “Thinking Out Loud” is actually the third-most-streamed track of all time on Spotify.)

    Here is the full list of the 10 most popular first dance songs:
