Here's What We Know About Miranda Lambert And Blake Shelton's Country Wedding

As celebrity pairings go, there are few more perfect on paper than Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton's. Both country superstars, both popular and famous, they seemed equally matched to the extent the couple reportedly got together despite the fact they were both with other people at the time. As Country Living notes, they originally met in 2005, going public following Shelton's divorce from his first wife, Kaynette Williams, in 2007. 

Their wedding took place in 2011 but, by 2015, it was all over. Although it was an acrimonious split, with accusations flying from both sides about infidelity and the stress of trying to keep a long-distance relationship going in the midst of two equally demanding careers, the former couple has since found love with new partners. Looking back on their lovely, low-key wedding, however, it's difficult to see how it could have gone so wrong for them.

As People reported at the time, star couple Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton tied the knot on May 14, 2011, at the Don Strange Ranch in Boerne, Texas, with famous guests in attendance, including actor Katherine Heigl, country icon Reba McEntire, and pop star and talk show host Kelly Clarkson. Everybody partied into the wee hours while the venison offered for dinner was harvested by Lambert herself. According to Green Wedding Shoes, the Lambert-Shelton nuptials were a proper down-home country celebration described as, "a fun rock 'n' roll wonderland wedding ...with a splash of hillbilly." The country superstars reportedly wanted the wedding to reflect their tastes, so it was suitably laidback and kitschy. Lambert donned her mother's wedding dress for the ceremony, followed by a chic frock from Vineyard by Priscilla of Boston for the reception — complete with cowboy boots, of course. 

Their dog-friendly venue meant the couple could easily include their pooches in the festivities, too, while Lambert walked down the aisle to "Makin' Plans," a song she wrote for Shelton, as sung by fellow country star and bridesmaid Ashley Monroe. Lambert admitted she tried not to cry but ultimately failed. "When I got close I didn't think of anyone else. It was just me and Blake," the singer-songwriter gushed. Roy Rogers' "Happy Trails" soundtracked their first romantic moments as husband and wife. Shelton later performed a song he wrote especially for the occasion, sweetly entitled "Let's Grow Old Together." By all accounts, it was magical.
