I want to surprise my wife on our upcoming anniversary with a completely original acoustic-folk song that tells the story of our love. I hear a warm, guitar-driven arrangement—something intimate and sincere rather than polished pop production. The lyrics should weave in our journey together, capturing how we met, fell in love, and grew stronger through the years.

Key moments to include:
- We met through my best friend Dante, who played matchmaker.
- Our first kiss was on the curb outside my parents' house under a streetlight on the 4th of July.
- I told her I loved her after a week while wearing a purple shirt on her parents' couch. She thought I was crazy and didn’t say it back.
- We lived in dorms next to each other at Ohio State and had amazing trips to Lake Erie listening to Rascal Flatts.
- Our close-knit friend group included Tyson, Dante, Ashley, Brittany (my wife), and me. Tyson married Ashley, who was one of my childhood friends.
- Our wedding song is "Everything" by Lifehouse.
- We’ve been through so much together that it feels like 30 years married. We have four beautiful kids and she always supports me when I coach at St. Charles soccer team, bringing the kids to all the games.
- She’s my fiercest supporter, never letting anyone speak badly about me. She’s a mama bear who protects her own and cares for everyone before herself.
- She’s family-focused, organized, and constantly thinking about others—including her nieces and nephews—and is an amazing big sister to Shelby.
- Her relationship with my mom started rocky but now they’re best friends.

Time is tight; I’d like the finished piece as soon as realistically possible so I have time to rehearse presenting it to her. Along the way I can share key memories, inside jokes, and any photos or notes you need to spark ideas. A scratch demo early in the process will help me confirm the vibe before you move to the final recording.

Deliverables:
• Full-length mastered track in WAV & MP3
• Separate instrumental mix
• Lyric sheet (text document)

Acceptance:
The song must feel authentically folk-acoustic, clearly narrate our love story with humor and heart, and arrive error-free and ready for playback. If that sounds like your kind of project, I’m excited to collaborate and make something she’ll never forget.
