My soon to be sister in law wants me to sing for her and my brother's wedding. I want something sweet but not something that's overdone. Any suggestions?

It would be helpful to know if this is for the ceremony of reception. If it is for the reception, please skip this unless there is a live band.
For the ceremony, if it is in a church there may be some restrictions on the type of music you can choose. You also want to speak with the musicians/accompanist. They should have some suggestions and you want to make sure it is something that they can play easily or are familiar with.
Here are some choices:
How Beautiful - Twila Paris
The Wedding Song - Paul Stookey (good for harmony very traditional)
Wherever You Go - Weston Priory/Gregory Norbet
Covenant Hymn - Gary Daigle
Beginning Today - Darryl Ducote
I Am Here - Steven Curtis Chapman
One Hand One Heart (from West Side Story)
Let there Be Peace On Earth - Jill Jackson/Seymour Miller
The Prayer - David Foster/Carol Bayer Sager (recorded by Andreas Bocelli and Celine Dion)
Where There is Love - David Haas
You Raise Me Up - Rolf Lovland & Brendan Graham
When God Made You – Natalie Grant/New Song
Ave Maria – Schubert
Ave Maria – Gounod
Largo – Handel
The Prayer - David Foster/Carol Bayer Sager
You Raise Me Up - Rolf Lovland & Brendan Graham
Red Is The Rose – traditional
Let there Be Peace On Earth - Jill Jackson/Seymour Miller

Perhaps it would be a good idea to include the style of music you feel more comfortable singing. Yes, you can make any song your own.... but if you're more country, me suggesting RandB is a lil pointless. Or vice versa.
And i hate to say it, not being judgemental... but people here have NO idea what "not overdone" means... obviously (butterfly kisses, at last, greatest love of all, blah blah blah)

The song Keeper of the Stars by Tracey Byrd
It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just cant believe youre in my life
Heavens smilin down on me
As I look at you tonight
I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
Ive got all Ill ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I dont deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude
So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
Ive got all Ill ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew

I had one of my friends sing At Last by Etta James. But I like the style that Joss Stone sings it. So I got her a copy of the track and an instrumental track to sing to. It was beautiful.

I love Crazy Love by Van Morrison, Into the Mystic by van Morrison, and my favorite is True Companion by Marc Cohn. Very beautiful lyrics. Look them up.

How about "We've only just begun" or "The Wedding Song" both classic wedding songs.

Amazed by Lonestar. I love that song!
Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you
The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you
Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Oh, every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you.
