OK! Magazine made a reported million dollar deal with 17 year-old Jamie Lynn Spears for exclusive coverage of her pregnancy and new baby. The magazine now has details of her upcoming wedding, and that probably means we can expect to see the photos there too. She plans to have a low-key ceremony and reception at her new home in Liberty, Mississippi, where she currently lives with her fiance and the father of her baby, Casey Aldridge. Jamie Lynn’s sister, Britney, will be her maid of honor, and the festivities will take place in Jamie Lynn’s backyard. OK! notes that they’ll have plenty of space as the house sits on three acres:
Despite their worldwide notoriety, the young couple won’t be swapping their vows at some 5-star celeb-filled resort, but will be sticking close to home. Jamie Lynn’s new house is in Liberty, Miss. — just 30 minutes from her mom Lynne Spears’ house, Serenity, in Kentwood, La. — and it sits on three acres, which is more than enough space to put up a tent for a private, late fall ceremony.
“She loves everything about the area where she lives. She’s not going to get married at some luxury resort in the Caribbean or a hotel in Beverly Hills,” a friend of the bride-to-be tells OK!. “Her own backyard with just the people who matter most is more Jamie Lynn’s style.”
And with the wedding approaching quickly, Jamie Lynn is planning to look her best on the big day. “She’s already down to her pre-pregnancy weight,” says the friend. “She has the cutest figure!”
Of course, big sis Britney Spears will be her Jamie Lynn’s maid of honor, and Casey’s sister Ashlee will be one of her bridesmaids. And tiny toddler Maddie will be an integral part of the wedding — possibly in a basket decorated with flowers and carried into the ceremony by the bride and groom’s mothers.
[From OK! Magazine]
The photos from her wedding will fetch good money for Jamie and it’s not like she’s got a lot of career options at this point after Zooey 101. Is it a good move for her to publicize her wedding though? There were rumors that she was reluctant to pose for photos with her newborn, Maddie, because she didn’t want the media exposure, but that she had no choice because the contract was already signed. It’s also not the wisest move to get married at 17, even if you already have a baby with someone. There’s a lot of life experience lacking and you may end up missing things you could have done in your 20s. Last week the Enquirer had a story that Jamie Lynn and Casey were fighting over calls to another woman she found in his cell phone records. Even if that wasn’t true, it’s hard to believe that these two are ready to commit the rest of their lives to each other.

That marriage has about as much chance of surviving as a mouse in a snake pit.

OMG, just what the world needs, another redneck, country teeenage married couple.. EWWWWWWWWWWWWW. Poor baby, she is so cute now but doesnt stand a chance. She will prob grow up and be a pregnant teen also.. WHAT A LAUGHABLE FAMILY.. GROSS
-
Does he look like a complete douchebag or what?? His beety little eyes.. creepy
-
Hahaha, and of course no pre nup so that he can take her earnings - and since her career is over, her future, in a year or two. The Spears girls are idiots. I see a trailer in Jaimelynne’s future!
They look like total hodads in that photo. What a pile of trash. Could that boy look more uncomfortable, or more ready to split? I am surprised there aren’t packed bags in the photo. Hilarious.

Going to have to go against the grain here. They look like an attractive young couple. They don’t live in a mobile home now so I don’t see where they would be in one later. They are starting their lives together with WAY more money than your average “got pregnant, then got married teen couple”. She doesn’t appear to be a spendthrift since they aren’t going whole hog on the wedding. Their chance of staying together is about the same as any other married couple…less than 50%. They aren’t the first teenage couple to start their lives with a baby, they won’t be the last. I hope the thing with other girl’s numbers on his cell phone isn’t true, but him being a teenager with a perpetual boner, I would think that it’s a strong possibility. I wish the best for them. Tired of hearing the same old uninspired comments from people who don’t even know what a redneck is trashing this couple. (wanna know what a redneck is? CHeck our resident DIVA,,,bad teeth,,,tons of tattoos,,sorry, her description, not mine) I’m not usually a defender of celebrities but with this young couple I felt a need to balance the usual trite expected comments. Guess I have a soft spot for them for the way they ran the paparazzi off with a firearm,,,warms my heart.

I’m embarassed to find the stars of this blog on here.
-
They are rednecks - and I know rednecks. But rednecks have happy marriages, too. And just because a marriage started down the barrel of a shotgun doesn’t mean said marriage will be any more or less happy.
Shit. I’m defending Jamie-Lynn now? WTF?
-
UHMMM no Kaiser. They are country. There is a difference
-
“And tiny toddler Maddie will be an integral part of the wedding”
No shit, Sherlock . . .
-
Does anyone else find it hard to look at her simply because of that hideous hair? I hope she fixes it soon for the sake of the wedding photos.
-
Isn’t the show called Zoey 101, not Zooey 101?
-
I give it two years.
-
Bad idea
-
Good Lord they look like they’re playing house.
I give it two years and that’s at the complete outside. Two years MAX, in other words. It will probably end long before that. Hell, they might not even make it to the wedding.
-
Kevin, that actually is not true. Couples who marry later, and couples with a higher level of education, are far less likely to divorce. Different demographics have varying statistical likelihoods of divorce, and Jamie Lynn and Casey fall right into a demographic with a high likelihood of divorce - young, uneducated teen parents.
-
First off ‘Redneck’ is a derogitory name, its like calling a mexican a ‘wetback’. If your a racist and feel its ok to say words like that then fine, but its a negative word and it just shows your [low] education level by saying it.
Secondly, small town folks tend to have longer lasting marriages than people who live in cities. So for the retards saying ‘they are rednecks and the marriage wont last’…well, it will last longer than yours will im sure.
Thirdly, I never hear negative comments about ‘black rapper’ celebrities who get married…they have the highest divorce rate in the nation! Not to mention, the lowest education level on average [yes, lower than 'rednecks'].
Again, the double standards are hilarious!! And most of you are dumber than the very ‘rednecks’ you bash hahaha
-
The tiny itty bitty baby makes me wanna have another one…. Hope the picture spread isn’t as effective on teenagers or the teen preggers will increase just because of this. And what’s up with the bro-bangs? Does this guy even have a forehead?
-
Rob..retard is also derogatory..not saying….just saying.
-
Look give them a break, at least they’re trying. My parents met when my mom was 17, dad 21, and they got married 6 months later with my mom being 18. They have one of the most solid marriages I know of and at the beginning had to live through a lot of the ” oh theyll never make its.” So while I dont think getting married and having a baby at 17 is the greatest idea, its not like they’re definately doomed for failure.
-
I don’t necessarily believe in getting married so young as there are a whole mess of personality and maturity changes that go down in your 20’s. But it’s their life, and who am I to judge whether or not somebody elses marriage (which is such an intensly personal thing) is going to work or not. No matter who you are, or what your background it will all come down to how hard you work at it and your emotional connection.
-
@Rob, Kevin - I live in the buckle of the Bible Belt. I’m surrounded by rednecks, and to many Yankees, I might be one myself.
“Redneck” is not a term of bigotry, it’s a term many Southerns use to describe themselves - with pride. There are some good ol’ boy rednecks who truly are horrible, and there are many, many, many who are simply nice, decent Southern folk who joke about how they’re “rednecks”.
I wasn’t bashing Jamie-Lynn, or the Spears family. They are rednecks. It is fact.
-
I don’t even know if they’ll make it to fall. For the baby’s sake and even their own-it is best that they marry. Of course no one can bet any serious money on these two lasting even 2 years. I don’t believe Jamie Lynn is all washed up as an actress-time will tell………
-
It depends on the context I guess..when I lived in LA it was common for mexicans to call white people Rednecks as a derogitory term. Followed by cracker or whitebread.

“Their chance of staying together is about the same as any other married couple…less than 50%”
That is completely inaccurate. A couple that gets married with both parties entering their first marriage, after both parties have a high school diploma, and without a pregnancy at the time of the wedding…well, that couple has much better odds of remaining married than just 50%. People who wait until they’re actually grown up (i.e. over 25 with some life experience and knowledge about who they really are), educated, and employed before getting knocked up and married have an even greater chance of avoiding divorce.
That “less than 50%” statistic is overused for the drama it adds to any discussion of the marriage institution, but the sweeping generalization of it distorts the picture. My marriage was never in the under 50% category. People who enter marriage responsibly can usually say the same thing.
-
Aspen, you girl, are full of crap. The statistics show less then 50% of marriages make it. Sorry you had to post so much to be so wrong. Do a little research instead of using your opinion as fact. I was using ALL marriages, not the slim parameters you laid out. Of course that slim sector of people have a better chance. People like you try to cherry pick the facts to prove their incorrect points. good day to you.
-
My goodness, she is waaay to young to get married. Marriage is a life long commitment.. 17 plus say 70 more years of the same partner is a LOOOOOONG time. She better rethink this and get professional counseling. Otherwise she will make a divorce lawyer and her exspouse very rich
-
In response to LR…..it is no wonder in a country that is obsessed with celebrities and thier lives, that kids grow up wanting to skip marriage, have children out of wedlock, and go on to raise 3 or 4 kids…..all fathered by different daddies! What used to be a “redneck” way of life has become the norm for all those hollywood types, and young girls and teens aspire to emulate them…I think they think it does, in some wierd way, bring them closer to living like the “important people” (at least to them, the teens) live! It’s only going to get worse….

All I have to say to all of you is, Marriage is mariage it will work if its ment to be…I am a 27yr old single parent of two and going through my second divorce. My fisrt marriage was at 20 and lasted just over a year and my second lasted just 4 months and I was 26y. I rushed into my first marriage cause I was pregnant and my second I was with the guy for 3 years before we got married.
I believe that if you really do love someone and its ment to be, you will give it your all to work..Mistakes happen even more so at a young age, its up to the love to carry you through them. Hell I tried my all and couldn’t make it. I stuck with both husbands through them cheating on me. I wanted my family and my marriage…My second marriage would have made it I believe but my husband and I lost our daughter at 13days old and he is now in prison cause it was so hard on him he did stupid shit and is now paying for it. I still love him and want it to work, just hard. But if its true love, we will work, just like these two.

I love OK!’s eternal optimism. I’m going with their version of events and sending the recent Enquirer ‘fighty, slutty, kickey-outie’ version of JL and Casey’s life to Room 101.
Sweet tiny baby! So cute.
