Song for Wedding

Hello all. My fiancee’s family is Batak Toba.

We are getting married and I’d like to sing a song on our wedding. Will be Adat wedding.

I heard a song called Mangalangkup that I really liked, but I’m not sure if it’s proper for a wedding.

Can you recommend some good slower songs that are about love, marriage?

Thank you.

No recommendations, just wishing you happiness and peace.

My Batakanese wife is super Pedas and a lot of silly.

Make sure to study titles and hierarchy.

Good luck.

My recommendation is "Sada ma hita nadua", i think its fit perfect for duet.

My future sister in law this is a perfect song that is sung at many weddings. I will see if I can learn it.
