The May 14 wedding of Tishomingo residents and country music stars Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton is featured in the new issue of US Weekly magazine, which has exclusive details and photos of the event, according to a news release.

Shelton is also a coach on NBC’s singing competition series “The Voice.”

From information provided by US Weekly:

Miranda Lambert didn’t call in any special favors when the time came to select a dress for her May 14 wedding.  Instead, the 27-year-old “House That Built Me” singer exchanged her vows in the same simple ivory wedding gown her mother had worn more than three decades earlier.

“My parents have been married for 33 years, so this dress is already a good-luck charm,” the bride tells Us.  Keeping with her Southern roots, Lambert paired the gown with custom-made Casadei cowboy boots.  Shelton, 34, choked back tears as Lambert’s dad gave her away.  “I couldn’t get over how beautiful she was,” he tells Us.  Lambert turned heads again when she changed into a short, strapless silk shantung Priscilla of Boston dress for the reception. “I’m married to my best friend!” Lambert told Us after the ceremony.  “Looking forward to a lifetime of laughter.”
