Sara Evans, Sports Radio Host Get Hitched

According to People.com, country music star Sara Evans and former University of Alabama quarterback Jay Barker were married at a Franklin, TN, farm on Saturday. The couple's seven children, including four from Barker's previous marriage, attended the ceremony. While Nashville songwriter Marcus Hummon also showed up to sing "God Bless the Broken Road" (a song he co-wrote with Rascal Flatts), Christian minister Joe Beam presided over the ceremony. Evans and Barker met through Beam last year, as they both went through divorces.

"He was our own personal matchmaker," Evans told People. "I think God told Joe to get us together."
