Nothing says romance like a John Hughes movie. Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani dropped subtle hints of plans for their upcoming wedding – but when it comes to their wedding song, they don’t leave fans guessing.

The 44-year-old country pop singer revealed an important detail about the celebration during an interview with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, May 19, on the Tonight Show episode, when the host urged him for answers about the couple’s first dance.

“I think it’s called ‘Wedding March,'” Shelton quipped at first, referring to the music that was traditionally played as the bride walked down the aisle.

Jimmy Fallon went on to set the scene for the Oklahoma native. “You come out of a fog machine at reception,” said the comedian, 46 years old. ‘This is Mr. and Mrs. Blake Shelton! … And now it’s time for the couple’s first dance. ‘What do we hear then? “

However, when Shelton finally gave a straight answer, the Saturday Night Live alum was skeptical. “It’s ‘If You Leave’ from the Pretty In Pink soundtrack,” revealed the Grammy nominee. “I swear I have it right here. … We talked about it, we both love the song. We’re both fans of the 80s, why not, why not? “

The stars then burst into singing, expressing the orchestral maneuvers in the dark featured in the 1986 romantic comedy Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer and Andrew McCarthy.

Shelton and Stefani, 51, announced their engagement in October 2020 after five years of dating. Weeks before her fiancé spilled the beans on her first dance, the Just a Girl singer admitted that she would love to win the former The Voice costar Adam Levine occur on the couple’s special day.

“I would definitely love to have Adam sing at our wedding,” she said on Late Night With Seth Meyers in April. “I have a feeling we won’t have a wedding ring. I feel like we’re just going to work with a playlist. We keep it very simple. “

Us Weekly reported in January that Stefani was “finally granted a waiver” by the Catholic Church five years after her separation from her ex-husband Gavin Rossdale. The former couple share the sons Kingston (14), Zuma (12) and Apollo (7).

For his part, Shelton was previously married to Miranda Lambert from May 2011 to July 2015. This time both the singer of “God’s Country” and Stefani hope to make their wedding more reserved.

“Blake built a chapel on the grounds of his ranch in Oklahoma. He did it himself with help, “a source told us exclusively in December 2020.” It really is a tribute to their love. “
