Wedding Card for FI - Proof and Opinions?

Hi ladies!  We're in the final countdown. To all whose weddings are this weekend - HOORAY!  Much luck and love to you.  For everyone who is still planning: I wrote the message for my FI for our wedding day, and before I actually write it IN the card, I'd like opinions.  Is it too much? Not enough? Icky?  FI isn't the most emotional guy (stoicism is praised in his family), and I don't want to be too schmaltzy, but I don't want to downplay the significance of the day.  Thoughts?

Of the 1,009 days I have loved you,

This is my favorite.

I feel so lucky that in a few short hours, I will be able to say that you are my husband. Your capacity for love, passion, laughter, music, fun and caring leave me in awe every day. It isn’t simply the big things that you do for me, like driving the 10 hours back to Delaware because I panicked on the turnpike, or talking to my parents when I’m at my wit’s end, but the little things as well. I love that you are such an amazing pet-dad to our boys, that you approach even the hardest situations with determination and grace and that you make each day count. I cannot imagine what my life would be like if you weren’t in it. You’re not only the best person I know; you bring out the best in me as well. I’ll see you at the end of the aisle.

Love,

Wifey Squirrel

  • I think it sounds perfect. Absolutely not too mushy, but I think it's very personal and it definitely is sweet. It would probably make ME cry if it was for me, but then again, as I know you've said you've been crying easily, our hormones are all out of whack with this wedding brain!! haha. I think it is just right. :)

  • It gave me chills. Like the others said, though, I don't think it's too mushy. You didn't say anything like "Roses are red..." lol Good job!
