When Arkansas native Blane Howardwrote “Promise to Love Her” it was never meant to be anything more than a simple gift. A gift that Howard surprised his bride, Megan, with on the morning of their wedding.

The song has quickly become his biggest success to date with more than 40 million streams across digital platforms. Shortly after the song's release, at his fans' behest, Blane and some friends created a video for the song, which included actual footage from his own wedding.
