Country Label Mates Tie The Knot

September 8, 2010/by contributor

The couple, who are both Show Dog-Universal artists and who have been dating for almost two years, gathered everyone together at Nashville’s 12th and Porter under the guise of a birthday party for Butter. But after the cake had been served, Butter told their guests he was about to change the evening’s course, and proposed to Robertson. Just when guests thought it couldn’t get any better, a mysterious curtain dropped to reveal flowers, a preacher and an altar made out of PVC pipe.

“Emily and I wanted our wedding to reflect what was important to us, and how much we love each other,” Fortney said. “Expensive invitations and fancy ceremonies don’t matter to us—I mean the altar cost us $30 bucks worth of PVC pipes. Plus we both have this wacky sense of humor, and being able to pull off a surprise like that was great.”

Both Butter and Robertson had all of their band mates in attendance, as well as family and friends.
