"I was the girl with the business degree, probably wouldn't recognize me".

I DO have an MBA... but this line is actually from a Kenny Chesney song titled 'the woman with you' - Chad is a huge country fan and when he first heard the song we had just gotten together.

All of the pages of my BD book have unique and special song lyric quotes....

for example:

Birds flying high

You know how I feel

Sun in the sky

You know how I feel

Breeze driftin' on by

You know how I feel

It's a new dawn

It's a new day

It's a new life

For me

And I'm feeling good

When the sun sinks down over the water

Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down

I know that you would never expect it, "I was the girl with the business degree, probably wouldn't recognize me". You tell me I'm gorgeous everyday, and after putting this together for you, I think I agree - I'm pretty hot actually!

See you at the end of the aisle... Ill be the one in the white dress, wearing blue panties...

I love you,

He was definately surprised....

Hope this provides some inspiration!

I LOVE THIS! I almost cried! I don't know why? But it was sweet!

Such a cute idea, Amy. I am loving your book. I might have to put them to use when I buy the "real" book for Matt instead of the softcover $20 version I had to order quickly to make it in time for the wedding...

Carolyn · February 26, 2009

Wow Alyssa that is really cute! I love the saying as well.

Amarillis · February 26, 2009

Thanks a lot ladies.... I really put a lot into my BD book because it was such a big surprise for my DH

Another big surprise that was included in the book/shoot was that I brought with me his highschool leather hockey jacket. Where we live hockey is really big and all the 'jock' type guys used to run the halls in their leather team jackets... with their last names printed on the sleeves.

I was a band geek and we used to make fun of the 'jocks' - now... it is an inside joke between DH and I... so it was appropo that I toted along his hockey jacket... he laughed his face off at the idea.... but love that I was wearing nothing underneath it! lol.

Oh, and thanks! I loved my bd photog and her style, and I love when others enjoy it as well, so thanks!

That is a super cute idea.. thanks Carly!!

My BD book was extra fun, because my dad made a custom wooden box for the book. On the night before the wedding I gave him a key (it was on the keychain as pictured on the cover of the book) then I retired to my brother's suite for the night... when I walked away I remember turning around and seeing DH with a very puzzled look on his face.

The next day I had my sister's boyfriend 'messenger' the locked box to our suite where FI was getting ready. His reaction was priceless... the pro-photographer took fantastic shots of his reaction.

On the inside of the book the first page read the following:

C,

This is your new black book, at the end of the day today you'll have no use for your old little black book. You may remember a special emergency trip to Toronto, where I disappeared for an entire afternoon? In the pages to come the mystery will be solved, leaving us free of any secrets.

OMG!! Yours is the one that inspired me to do the BD book. I saw it in your planning thread and LOVED the idea of the 'little black book'.
And, I love the Kenny Chesney lyrics sprinkled throughout; I am a HUGE country music fan.

I may steal a bunch of your ideas!
