Country singer Rory Feek is remarrying, 8 years after the death of his wife Joey!

Rory Feek is married again!

Eight years after losing his wife and musical partner Joey Vlek of cervical cancer, the country musician revealed that he has married his 10-year-old daughter Indiana‘s teacher, Rebecca. Rory shared in a blog post that the couple got married on July 14 “under a beautiful wooden pavilion here in Greycliff, Montana” with his child, their family and close friends in attendance. What made their wedding extra special? He surprised his bride with a performance of a song he wrote for her called I do. Ouch!

An accompanying music video for the song showed clips from their wedding ceremony, including the emotional moment where he serenaded Rebecca to their guests. Watch (below):

This is so sweet! And they look so happy together! And as for their love story? Rory and Rebecca were a couple for a while. However, the singer revealed that his marriage only happened because of Indiana. Grab some tissues for this one, Perezcious readers! It’s a tearjerker! He wrote on the blog:

“We knew marriage was a possibility. It wasn’t something either of us could seriously talk about. Especially since Indiana had only ever seen Rebecca as ‘Miss Rebecca, her schoolteacher and our friend.’

But Indiana brought up an idea to Rebecca in “late March” when the two were hanging out at Rory’s farm. While the Gentleman artist recalled:

“They came back into the kitchen and Rebecca said, ‘Rory, Indiana just asked me something that I think you need to hear.’ I asked Indy and she told me that she said, ‘Mrs. Rebecca, I think you should marry Daddy.’ Of course I was happy, but I was taken aback and told her that that was something we all needed to pray about. And then Indy looked at me and said, ‘And I told Miss Rebecca that my mommy’s been gone for a while. And if she marries you, maybe she can be my new mommy…’”

Rory was, of course, moved by his daughter’s words. The father even admitted to wiping away tears during their conversation! And shortly after, he and Rebecca began planning a wedding. Based on the photos and videos from their big day, everything seemed perfect! What was Rory and Rebecca’s “favorite moment” from the wedding? He wrote:

“When Indiana was given the gift of having a mommy in her life again. And Rebecca was given the gift of being a mom. And we became a family.”

Congratulations Rory and Rebecca! We couldn’t be happier for the musician for finding love again! Any reactions? Let us know in the comments below! You can also read his entire blog post, including wedding photos, HERE.
