Country music's hottest singers Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton, are tying a knot soon.

COUNTRY MUSIC's hottest singers Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton, are tying a knot soon.

Shelton asked Lambert to marry him on Sunday. Kathy Best, Lambert's publicist, confirmed the news Tuesday. For Lambert, Shelton’s proposal came as a surprise. She says Shelton proposed to her in the woods near her Tishomingo, Okla., home.
Shelton being a conventional, wanted Lambert to take permission from her father, Rick.

She accepted his proposal and the happy couple was joined by friends and family for an informal celebration. The wedding date has still not been confirmed.

It's been quite the year for Lambert. She scored her first No. 1 with "White Liar," won three Academy of Country Music Awards, including album of the year, and now she's marrying her boyfriend whom she is dating for 5 long years.

Lambert said, "We had a couple of Bacardi (rum) and Diet Sprites - in a Solo (plastic) cup! ...He called my dad and got his blessing first. That was so Southern and old-school and perfect."
