Our late night wedding playlist for 2026 has 78 songs for the final hours of the reception, from Viva La Vida, Dancing Queen and Mr. Brightside to Angels, Your Song and Dancing in the Moonlight.
It opens with feel good singalongs, builds through pop and disco, then winds down with the British anthems every wedding seems to finish on.

Why these songs work
By eleven o'clock guests want songs they can shout. This list leans on choruses everyone knows, from Bon Jovi to Chappell Roan.
Mr. Brightside appeared twice, so we replaced the second play with Valerie. We also split up every pair of songs by the same artist.
