The Classic Love song Wedding Song (There is Love) was created by Noel Paul Stookey in 1969. He wrote the song as a gift for the other two members of his group that were getting married Peter Yarrow and Marybeth McCarthy. Their musical group was Peter, Paul and Mary. The song became an immediate hit when he recorded it for the first time in 1971 and has remained a popular choice for wedding ever since then.
Paul believes that it was divine intervention from God that allowed him to write the song after he prayed, he has never taken credit or royalties for the song. In his own words ; "Into every songwriter's life comes a song, the source of which cannot be explained by personal experience..." He created a public trust fund titled Public Domain Foundation, Inc. where the royalties from this song are collected and used to promote music in the Music2Life program.
