Thomas Rhett Married: Country Newcomer Weds Childhood Crush

Thomas Rhett is officially off the market! The "Beer With Jesus" singer wed Lauren Gregory on Friday, Oct. 12. The couple has known each other since the first grade, "but I don't think she really noticed me 'til we were 16," the groom admits to Pittsburgh radio station Y108.

Thomas popped the question last December inside a private room at Lauren's favorite Nashville restaurant, Giovanni's, where he'd enlisted her mom to help stash flowers, candles and one very important prop. "There was a (wine) bottle and with a silver Sharpie I wrote 'marry me?' on the bottle, and she wrote 'Well, duh, yes' on the bottle," the singer recalls. "Somebody cued 'The Way You Look Tonight' by Frank Sinatra, and we danced in this little cigar room. It was pretty awesome."

The son of acclaimed singer-songwriter Rhett Akins, Thomas released a five-song EP on August 28, hitting No. 1 on iTunes' country albums chart that very same day. The project's first single, "Something to Do With My Hands" reached the Top 15, with its powerful followup, "Beer With Jesus," now climbing the charts. The musician's first full-length album is expected early next year.

Congrats to the happy couple!

It will last till they need some money. Then he'll cheat or as is the current trend, she will.Then the baby bump, the diving album sales, diseases they fought when they were kids, snubbing the president, whoever it is at the time followed by endless'opening ups about things everybody deals with on a daily basis. Then they'' split up, get back together or one of them is seen out with a strange thing parents wouldn't approve of...and so on.
