How it works

Four steps. One song you'll keep forever.

You don't need to write a single lyric. Just tell me your story. I'll do the rest.

1

Share your story

Fill out the intake form below — how you met, the moments that matter, the feeling you want when the song plays.

2

I write the song

Lyrics drafted, melody shaped, instruments layered. You hear a first cut within 5 days.

3

We refine together

Want a different bridge? A softer chorus? A line about your grandmother? We revise until it's right.

4

You walk down the aisle to it

Studio-quality MP3 and WAV files delivered, ready for your DJ, your venue, and the rest of your life.

Samples

A few songs I've written

"Lost in Austin"

Finding your person in a city that never quite slows down

Country · Story Song

"One Night Stand"

The wedding song about how they actually met

Country Ballad · Bittersweet

The other side of a wedding invitation

Keepsakes

The song, on your wall.

One line of your song, hand-set in type and printed on archival cotton paper — the kind that doesn't yellow. A first anniversary gift, a guest-book alternative, or the thing above your bed that nobody else in the world has.

Each print is made to order from your song. Tell me the line at checkout — every one is one of a kind.

Also from the studio

Original pencil portraits

When I'm not writing, I draw. Hand-rendered pencil portraits — of the two of you, the venue, the old family home, a dog that should've been a groomsman. Commissioned one at a time, priced per piece. Not a headline act around here, just something I'm happy to make if you want one.

Words by Kent

When you don't know how to say it, I do.

I've written a thousand songs about love. Vows, the letter you leave on the morning of, the poem read at the ceremony, the toast you're terrified to give — same craft, no melody. Tell me the story; I'll find the words.

Vow Writing

Personal, spoken-from-the-heart vows built from your story — written for you, or polished from your draft.

From $95 · Full write $195

The Wedding-Morning Letter

The letter your partner reads before they see you. The one that gets folded up and kept forever.

$95

Ceremony Poem or Reading

An original poem or reading written for your ceremony — yours alone, not pulled off a Pinterest board.

$95

Toast & Speech Writing

Best man, maid of honor, father of the bride. Funny where it should be, choked-up where it counts.

$125

Kent Carson, Texas songwriter and founder of Lone Star Love Songs
The songwriter

Hi, I'm Kent.

Some of my earliest memories are of falling asleep on dancehall tables while my dad played electric guitar in The Emotions Band — back when David Kersh was on lead vocals, before his record deal. I grew up watching couples find their song. The one they slow-danced to at 1 a.m. The one they kept playing in the truck on the drive home. The one that, twenty years later, still made somebody reach for somebody else's hand.

That's what I want to make for you.

I've spent the years since writing — a thousand or so songs across country, Texas country, Americana, pop, R&B, rap, and gospel. A few have landed in good hands (Justin Champagne cut one of mine). Mostly, though, what I love is getting it right for one specific couple. Generic love songs are everywhere. The one that's actually about you two — that's the one you'll keep.

Because it's just me, I take a limited number of weddings each month — so every song gets the time it deserves. Husband, dad of three, raised on Randy Rogers and Texas dancehall floors. Tell me your story, and let me write yours. Start here →

When the song lands

What Kim said the morning her son's song arrived

"I can't even put into words. It is beyond better than I could imagine. The only thing I'd change is one word — 'pawpaw' instead of 'papa.' I really want you there when they play it. Please please please try to come."

Kim Fikac · mother of the groom
Give a gift

The wedding gift no one else will think of.

Parents, bridal parties, best friends — give the couple a custom song instead of another set of towels. Choose any amount toward their package, and I'll send a printed certificate they can redeem whenever they're ready.

Questions

Frequently asked

How long does it take to get my song?

Most songs are delivered in 5–7 days from when the intake form is complete. Rush delivery (72 hours) is available for an extra $150. If your wedding is more than 30 days out, you can lock in your date and we'll work on a timeline that fits.

What if we don't like the first version?

That's what revisions are for. The First Dance package includes 3 rounds, and The Heirloom and Legacy are unlimited. Tell me what to change — different mood, different vocal, more about a specific moment — and I'll re-cut it. I don't stop until you're crying for the right reasons.

Do you write the lyrics or do I have to?

I write them. You just tell me your story. The intake form below walks you through what to share — how you met, the moments that mattered, the inside jokes, the hard times you got through together. The more you give me, the more your song will sound like you.

What are the lyric art prints made of?

Your favorite line from your song, hand-set in type and printed on archival cotton paper that won't yellow over time. The framed version comes in a solid wood frame; the canvas is gallery-wrapped and ready to hang. They make a perfect first-anniversary gift or a guest-book alternative — and yes, you can order one even if your song was a smaller package.

Can you really help me write my vows or a toast?

Yes — it's the same thing I do every day, minus the melody. Tell me the story, the inside jokes, the moment you knew, and I'll write vows, a wedding-morning letter, a ceremony poem, or a toast that sounds like you on your best day. I can write it from scratch or polish a draft you've already started.

Can my DJ play this at the wedding?

Yes. The First Dance, Heirloom, and Legacy packages include a DJ-ready master and a license for wedding-day use. You'll get the files in a format any DJ can drop in.

Is the song "ours" or "yours"?

The recording is delivered with a license that gives you the right to play it at your wedding, share it with family, post it on social, and keep it for the rest of your life. The Heirloom and Legacy tiers include a full commercial license. I retain authorship credit — but the song is yours.

How are the songs produced?

I write the lyrics by hand based on your intake. I shape the melody and vocal direction. I use modern studio production tools — including AI-assisted instrumentation — to bring the song to a finished, broadcast-quality track. Every song is reviewed, edited, and mastered by me personally. I'm transparent about my process because the result is what matters, and I want you to know exactly what you're getting.

Do you do songs for things other than weddings?

Yes — anniversary gifts, proposal songs, memorial tributes, baby-shower songs, and birthday surprises. Use the form below and pick the closest category, or just write what you need in the notes field.

Start your song

Tell me about you two

Takes about 8 minutes. The more you share, the more your song will sound like your love story — not a generic one. Nothing is locked in until you choose to move forward.

Got it. I'll review your story and reply within 24 hours with a confirmation and next steps. — Kent
