There, he marries 33 year old Brittany Eakins at Graystone Quarry to a hefty crowd of 350 guests. The country veteran holds his nuptials on a weekday so some of his fellow touring acts could take the reception.

In a "tribute to their Southern heritage," Jamey and Brittany rejoice in capturing a moment of their love with their closest friends. "The best thing about our wedding by far has been bringing together so many people that we love and putting them all in one place," the couple says. "It's been so special to watch all of our friends from different places and phases of our lives become friends."
Jamey Johnson Marries The Love of His Life, Brittany Eakins
Apparently, Johnson has been plotting on this day since the moment they first met. The first time they got together, it was literally love at first sight.
Consequently, he wanted to skip all the legwork of dating and get right to the part of spending their lives together. "'How about we skip the dating? Let's go ahead and get married and have some kids and we'll talk about a date after that,'" Brittany recalls Jamey saying. "I couldn't tell if he was kidding or not. He didn't laugh. He looked at me and said, 'You have no idea how long I have been looking for you.'"
Clearly, Jamey was done looking and popped the magic question after asking her to take a break from work with him. "He asked me to take a walk with him, so I did. I don't remember our conversation, but I remember we were right across the street from where we met. He got down on one knee and proposed. I guess I said yes this time!" Brittany exclaims.
