So Brad Paisley wrote almost a whole album of breakup songs, inspired by his failed relationship with a woman he took to see Father of the Bride.

And when it came time to shoot the video for one of those songs — the tongue-in-cheek ‘I’m Gonna Miss Her,’ in which he is forced to choose between his girlfriend and fishing — he thought about that movie again.

The actress playing the titular bride, Kimberly Williams, seemed like a lovely young woman — why not invite her to appear in his video?

Williams took the job and before long the New York actress and West Virginia country singer were in love. Now that’s a meet-cute worthy of the romantic comedies that helped Williams make her name.

Their marriage, and the birth of their two sons, have offered a wealth of material to Paisley. He wrote a couple of love songs on his first two albums, but you can tell that he means the ones that show up on every album after he and Williams met.

Paisley has a sharp wit but he’s also a bit of a goofball. This video is the first of many he’d release to feature corny guest stars and slapstick comedy. But I’m sure it holds a special place in his heart as the way he met his wife.
