Ohhh I want one!

Sounds great Lizabeth!

LOVE it. Can't wait to get one

Liz- I'll pay you to make mine, LOL!!!

sounds great! I am having issues with this-FH thinks we should put songs that are special to us--but I feel that we should try to also accomodate those who will be receiving it. How did you do it? I know some people put songs from the ceremony then the reception like in order of the wedding day believe it or not i want to get these done like this summer so i don't have to think about it. I already have all the supplies!

Lizlen -I love your choices!! did you make the CDs. labels and packaging yourself? i am interested in making some for my favors too but I need HELP!!

Thank you all

The way I picked the songs was first I picked what was special to us, and I tried to pick ballads of different genres to represent the different types of people that will attend the wedding.
I have:

R&B (mostly)
Pop Ballads
Spanish Ballad
and French for my family at the end.

I'll give the meaning of each song in the next post.

As for the graphics/labels, I bought blank CDs and the blank white CD labels.
I will make the CD labels my favorite engagment pic (that I'm taking THIS Sunday, LOL)

For the outside Labels, it will be an assortment of pics including one with Len's son to represent our NEW family. Also the playlist of course. A message from Len and me in english, and one in french.

Karino, no $$$ accepted, but if you're serious, and buy the materials, I will make them for you.
Luckily I have time after my wedding before yours gets here

Theresa, you will def. get one, you better come to the wedding

MEANINGS OF SONGS TO LEN AND ME(VERY LONG):


1. Love Ballad – Jeffrey Osborne
This is our first dance song. The words are beautiful, and we are so in love and no one would know just how much we love each other b/c it's so strong. That's why we chose this one.

2. For You – Kenny Lattimore
Self Explanatory - we'll do anything for each other

3. At Last – Etta James
Due to our experiences, none of us ever thought we'd find true love, so when we did, it was At Last and so God sent.

4. If this World were mine – Luther Vandross
Like For You, we'd do anything and sacrafice anything for each other, and give each other the world.

5. Turn Off the Lights – Teddy Pendergrass
hee hee hee, always have to include some lovin

6. By Your Side - Sade
I chose this song b/c he is everything to me, and I ALWAYS tell him I will always be by his side no matter what. He can always look to me to be there for him. I will never leave him. Only God can take me away, and then still only physically. We are also using this song for our wedding video.

7. Interlude – Never Felt this way – Alicia Keys
I just love this interlude. Remake of Brian McKnight captures the way we both feel.

8. Make Me Whole – Amel Larrieux
This song recommended to me by Ebony041903, and I want to kiss her 100 times. This song is so poignant, and captures the feeling of the fact that he is my other half, and how he completes me. It's funny b/c I always tell him that he completes the person I am, he brought out the good side of me.

9. Everything You Do - Marc Anthony
In a nutshell, everyday he proves how much he loves me, and makes me realize how much I love him with everything he does every day -- except when he's a typical man, of course, LOL .

10. Still the One – Shania Twain
This song has special meaning to us b/c we were such an unlikely couple. No one thought we would make it, but we did, and in a big way.

11. Happily Ever After – Case
Well, self explanatory again - we want to live happily ever after.

12. Let’s Stay Together – Al Green
This is our Anthem, and we will use this as our last dance.

13. Pour Mieux T’aimer – Nana Mouskouri (french)
The translation of this song is to LOVE YOU BETTER........
It says all the things one would do to love someone better, all the sacrafices they would make.

14. Celine Dion (one of her French songs)
I haven't picked this one yet, but I promised myself I will tonight. Celine has so many french songs, that are sooooo beautiful and all mean so much to me, that to choose one has been very difficult b/c I just can't choose. She is the bomb in english, spanish and french. That's my girl

THERE YOU HAVE IT FOLKS, SORRY SO LONG, LOL

LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT

Your song selections are awesome - so original and unique - Everything you do by Marc Anthony is my favorite...

Beautiful Selections Liz

Excellent choices!!!!
