Randy Houser, who you most likely know for hits like “Boots On” and “Anything Goes“, celebrated labor day weekend by getting married to fiancé singer-songwriter Jessa Lee Jantz! The two wed in the Dominican Republic on September 2. The wedding ceremony was an intimate affair with only 20 guests where they exchanged vows at sunset which (appropriately) they had written themselves. In an especially sweet touch, the two also sang an a cappella version of “Have I Told You Lately That I Love You“. Congratulations to Randy and Jessa!
