“You Matter To Me” from Waitress. Very new (therefore original), is perfect for piano and cello, and just so meaningful. Try the concept album version.

"Falling Slowly" from Once would be beautiful on piano/cello.

I was going to suggest 'Gold' from Once

I've thought "Song of a Summer Night" from Most Happy Fella would be perfect to walk down the aisle to for several years now.

Wedding Bells from The First Wives Club! (I'm only kidding a little bit) I love the suggestions given already though. They are all great choices.

Although this isn't from a show, it has been recorded by Barbra Streisand, though I prefer the performance by Kevin Dozier, "On My Way To You," especially if the two getting married aren't kids.  Here's a video of Kevin singing it (he actually has more views that Babs) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcKeWVPBtMY

it's written by the Bergmans and Michel Legrand, so it has theater cred.  It's NOT easy to sing -- you need real pipes to do it well.  It's on Kevin's album "Love-Wise" with a gorgeous arrangement by Christopher Marlowe.  

I just checked and Kevin's studio recording is at iTunes -- the arrangement has oboe and cello and piano -- it's really gorgeous -- though you'll see that with just piano it works fine -- as long as you have a first rate singer.  Good luck!
