Whether the below artists performed at their fellow celebsâ weddings (and many have, including John Legend at Kim Kardashian and Kanye Westâs nuptials; Ellie Goulding at Prince William and Kate Middletonâs wedding) or fansâ ceremonies (hi, Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift), one thingâs for sure: They are all about upping the romance factor, especially with their own to-die-for tunes.
