Write a Love Letter to Your Future Spouse on Your Wedding Day

Social media and other forms of media have made the art of letter writing almost an ancient skill. No longer do people write down their feelings and thoughts in long, beautiful letters to their lovers. If it's not 240 characters or less, most people find it difficult to dictate what they are truly feeling. Think about Shakespeare. He is one the most famous writers who knew how to tell someone in eloquent language how he felt about them – "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate."

So, there's no better way to tell your future spouse how excited you are to spend the rest of your life with them, than by writing a well thought out letter.
