Behind-the-Scenes: Chrissy Teigen and John Legend's Wedding Reception Playlist

What happens when a Grammy-winning artist gets married? He makes a mega-playlist, of course, to entertain his guests. Prior to John Legend and Chrissy Teigen tying the knot on the banks of of Italy's Lake Como in September, the groom pulled together more than 60 songs to set the tone for the night, from Aretha Franklin to Led Zeppelin. Post-ceremony, Teigen traded her ball gown for her dinner dress, and Legend pressed "play." But as only a musician can do, he made sure the tunes were punctuated by two live performances: Legend serenaded Teigen with his latest hit, "All of Me," and guest Stevie Wonder (who was also in heavy rotation on the playlist with six songs) took to the piano for "Ribbon in the Sky."


Legend passed his selections on to us, and we couldn't help but share them with you. Here, more than four hours of music to inspire your own choices for your wedding day, rehearsal dinner, even bridal shower. Scroll down through our Spotify player to see and listen to them all.
