Brantley Gilbert’s wedding to his fiancé Amber is a little over a month away, and while he’s left most of the planning to her, he says, “It’s actually gonna be really, really small and really simple. I met her ten years ago, she’s a hometown girl and we wanted it to be really special for us and have the people there that really, really mean the world to us and that’s gonna be pretty awesome.”
Brantley says while the wedding will be small, all of the little details will be things that are special and have significant meaning for him and Amber. Leading up to the wedding Brantley will be out on the road promoting his latest single, “One Hell of an Amen,” and playing shows all over the country. You can see a complete list of his tour dates here.
