I Grammy Awards sono tutti incentrati sulle novità musicali , ma guardare indietro ai vincitori passati può essere un modo perfetto per iniziare a creare la playlist per il proprio matrimonio . Dopotutto, i vincitori hanno ricevuto questi prestigiosi premi per un motivo: le canzoni con un sigillo di approvazione dei Grammy erano probabilmente le migliori nell’anno di uscita.  E quando i brani premiati sono anche canzoni d’amore romantiche , non si può negare che siano l’ideale per il proprio grande giorno.
