Jana Kramer just walked towards her fairytale ending.
The One Tree Hill alum and Allan Russell tied the knot at a castle in the former soccer player's naive Scotland July 13. And among the just 35 friends and loved ones who joined them for the intimate affair was their son Roman, 8 months, her and ex Mike Caussin's kids, Jolie, 8, and Jace, 5, and Allan's son Troy, 16, from a previous relationship.
“I just knew that I wanted to marry him," she told People in an interview published July 13. "We had talked about just going away and doing it ourselves, but it was important for me to have the wedding for Jolie and Jace, so they can see that we're married now."
And for Jana, who previously explained why she planned to walk down the aisle solo on her big day, it was a walk she'll always remember.
"I've also never been so excited to walk down the aisle to someone, and it didn't need to be this big thing. It's going to be very small and intimate and everything that we wanted," she continued. "We're getting married in Scotland, so the background is already stunning as it is. I just want to marry him, and I want my closest friends there. That's all that truly matters to us and our family.”
Ahead of the nuptials, Jana—who got engaged to Allan in May 2023—reflected on how her romance with the 43-year-old marked a stark departure from her previous relationships.
"Allan is the first person who I didn't feel like I had to defend my past," explained the singer, who was previously married to Mike, Michael Gambino and Johnathon Schaech, on her Whine Down podcast in May 2023. "Like normally, I went on this one date with this guy, and he was like, 'So you've been married a lot,' and that's always kind of been the conversation."
In fact, instead of looking back at her past marriages as failures, she sees them as her path forward. As she put it, "I'm so grateful now for those past relationships that have led me to Allan."

Jana was all smiles appearing with Allan Russell, their baby boy Roman, and her older kids Jolie and Jace at Stirling Castle in Scotland ahead of the couple's wedding in July 2024.
Jana Kramer and Allan Russell snuggled up with their son Roman during Easter celebrations in 2024.
Jana and Allan posed for a family portait her kids Jolie and Jace—who she shares with ex Mike Caussin—in August 2023, writing, "Family fun in Michigan."
"That’s a wrap on another 4th of July family trip," Jana wrote in 2023. "Core memories made."
The family celebrated the holiday in The Great Lakes State.
"You’ve got a friend in us," the star wrote while channeling Toy Story for Halloween 2022. "Love, little Bo Peep, buzz, Jessie and Woody."
Jolie started second grade in 2023, sharing that she wants to be an actress and singer like her mom.
"Someone is excited for their first day of school and someone is not," Jana joked. "2nd grade and the last year of preschool here they come!"
"Celebrated Christmas morning with the kiddos today," she wrote on Dec. 26, 2022. "It was still the same joy even on a different day…and it even snowed just like a true Christmas Day. Pure magic. Thanks to the mommas who told me about this idea." But not all was festive, as she noted, "And a big Shoutout to the grinch for leaving me the flu in my stocking and an ear infection for Jace."
Jana was feeling "blessed" on New Year's Eve 2022. "Happy New Years from me and my babies!" she wrote.
Jana and Jolie had a mother-daughter boating trip in July 2023.
The actress captioned the shot, "Best mommy daughter time."
The "I Got the Boy" singer gave a glimpse into "life lately" in June 2023, featuring Jolie enjoying a sweet summer treat.
Her son Jace was all smiles after removing his Spider-Man face paint while bearing a "Brotherhood" T-shirt.
