I need acoustic wedding songs...

Is there a 'top 3' tunes list that can be played at a wedding sans vocals, just acoustic guitar?

Just like acoustic finger-style?

Don't forget the last chord is a D major!

"Memories of Us" by Keith Urban always does well.

"Cinderella" by Micheal W Smith would be a good one for fingerstyle guitar father/daughter dance.

Some good suggestions, thanks! Just needed a song or two other than "More Than Words" for a family wedding coming up. Doesn't necessarily need to be fingerstyle...
