Cover Story: See Miranda Lambert's Wedding Dress!
Miranda Lambert didn't call in any special favors when the time came to select a dress for her May 14 wedding to Blake Shelton, her beau of five years.

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 the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands now). Keeping with her Southern roots, Lambert paired the gown with custom-made Casadei cowboy boots. (Lambert's bridesmaids wore Old Gringo boots and custom-made gowns by Priscilla of Boston's Mark Brower.)

Well bless your hearts... Congradulations the the couple. May y'all have years of happiness and joy. My husband wished he could've wore jeans to our wedding but I definately put my foot down.
i love the dress, she has a beautiful figure(:
"Congratulations" Miranda & Blake, may your lives be filled with Love, Health and Happiness now and always!!!
Ok, so about everyone saying that Blake wearing jeans is a "Southern Thing", it most definitly isn't. It is tacky, but it is their wedding. I respect his opting to wear jeans, but it is tacky and it isn't a southern thing. I've been to countless southern weddings and not one person wore jeans.
y'all look amazin! and the jeans were the way to go Blake you totally rocked em! and Miranda i love the dress! totally right to go with your mothers weddin dress :) y'all are just cute together! may you two be blessed greatly!!! love both of ya!
They look fantastic and I think it is great that she wore her mothers wedding dress. That is so special. To the person saying that Blake's jeans are tacky; you obviously have zero knowledge of how we southern people do things. Also, I'm pretty sure it is their wedding....and they can do what they want. You're entitled to your opinion, though, so I will just give you mine. =)
no one said us stole the pictures or you're not allowed to see them. but we're not actually entitled to think they have to be online for us to see them. like you said, they agreed for them to be printed, so be happy they're printed at all, in any form. if it's that big of a deal you see them, go look at them where they're provided.
Hey y'all! I recorded this video as a tribute to the wedding and would love if you checked it out! youtube.c om/watch?v=cnIz5almQFU (just remove the space between the c and o)
Who cares what he/she wore! Its their day, their life, their wedding! Obviously they did what they wanted. Let them be who they want to be, not who everyone expects them to be. They are normal people. Just because they have a lot of money doesn't mean they have to spend millions on a wedding. Maybe they have their priorities somewhere else. Let them be. Wishing them many years of happiness, love, & laughter!
Who cares what he or she wore or if they let a magazine have their wedding photos. Its their wedding, their life. Let them be. Wishing them many years of happiness!

Cinnamon...hot mess? Any individual can just go to the courthouse in a bit more casual wear than what the Shelton's are wearing for their wedding. At the end of the day, it's about the day to day commitment you make to one another. We have many couples spending as much as a new car on a wedding day or spend as little as $50 for the marriage license. A wedding doesn't need to be upscale to last the test of time!
I am sorry, but I am happy to see that they had the day the way they wanted it. They look great, and happy! Not everyone wants to wear a huge overdone gigantic gown. I love the simplistic approach they took!
I LOVE them and wish them all the best but I'm sorry..they look like a hot mess in the photos I've seen. I don't care how "down to earth" you are--your wedding photos are forever-do it up!!
@Kiki I wore jeans at my wedding, it is a country style I had a nice shirt, tie, vest, and a pair of wranglers. It's a Southern Thang

US magazine didn't sneak someone in to take wedding pictures...these two had to give permission for US to print these. They either shared them with the magazine on their own, or sold the rights. That is why we're 'allowed' to see them. Why is this even a big deal?
They are an adorable couple. Here's to a long and happy marriage.
Go to your local book store, news stand or library, flip through it, read it, back on the shelf, all your out is the gas and time to get there, Lol :)
