But fear not, the couple is still very much into getting married! Rather than going with their initial plans for an elaborate Fall wedding, the couple has stated that due to time restrictions and a hectic schedule they will elope. Their ceremony will be intimate and take place with just the two of them, the minister, and Blackstock’s two children. Clarkson explained:
We sent out a save-the-date to everyone and then it got crazy and all the details were leaking. Then honestly the planning – I have a Christmas record coming out. I’m doing a bunch of stuff with State Farm right now (the singer is teaming up with the insurance company to educate kids about safe driving). We have two kids who just started school. We’re going to all these football games and soccer games and volleyball games and [Brandon]‘s got one of the biggest artists [Blake Shelton
] in country music. He’s flying everywhere.
It’s nice to see that Clarkson and Blackstock are focusing more on their families and what’s best for them than having a big, fancy wedding! While that is a rarity among celebrities today, that is the most important thing in a marriage. I commend Clarkson and Blackstock for making this bold last minute decision and I wish them many happy years of marriage!
