Ellie Goulding performed a cover of Elton John's 'Your Song' for the couple's first dance (a la the 2010 John Lewis Christmas advert). Discussing the experience with Vanity Fair in 2016, Goulding said: 'Talk about Scary. I was so nervous, my hands were shaking.'
Your Song. It's a song that has been there throughout my growing up I used it to audition for drama school and I don't know it just feels like a kind of timeless classic.

Is that an Elton John sample?
It’s an interpolation — I didn’t realize it was until I made it and I was like “Oh sh–!” So he’s credited, obviously. Before I played it for him, I was like “F—, I hope he likes it!” But he was freakin’, he was like, “Mate you’re the one! You’re gonna be doing this for a long time!”
