Lady Antebellum star Dave Haywood married his long time friend Kelli Cashiola, 30, in a beautiful Southern wedding on Saturday.

The couple only revealed they were dating last November at the Country Music Awards red carpet but they have been friends for six years.

Band members Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott witnessed the sunset nuptials held on Front Porch Farms just outside of Nashville, Tennessee. The bride looked stunning in a lace backless dress.

Loving father Lionel Richie stuck by Nicole during her troubled younger years, and now his daughter is showing her gratitude by playing by his side during a very special concert performance.

The touching family moment was captured in a TV special ACM PRESENTS: Lionel Richie and Friends – In Concert taped at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, which will air on CBS next week.

Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott and Chris Tyrrel, of the country trio Love and Theft, tied the knot in upstate New York.

The country music couple said 'I do' in front of friends and family on Saturday and announced the good news in a video posted on the Lady Antebellum official website.

"I'd like to introduce you to Mrs. Hillary Scott Tyrrell," said Chris, who asked his new wife to marry him last Fourth of July weekend.

"We got married," confirmed Scott before flashing her wedding ring. "We just wanted you to hear it from us first."

The video shows the proud newlyweds expressing their joy to the camera and also gives a sneak peak at their big day with Scott wearing a custom strapless Vera Wang mermaid dress and Tyrrell in a smart gray suit.

Rob Kardashian posted his best score-to-date on Monday's next-to-last edition of Dancing with the Stars, streaking to the finish line with 57 out of 60 possible points for his waltz and a flawless, 30-point freestyle routine –his first perfect score of the season.

The 24-year-old reality TV personality, paired up with pro dancer Cheryl Burke, said he "couldn't have asked for a better ending of the season" with the triumphant outing.

Head judge Len Goodman told Rob his “family should be proud" of his efforts this season. Judge Carrie Anne Inaba told him following his perfect freestyle: "To get a 10, you have to blow us away -- consider me blown away!”

The sparks flew for Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott this past Fourth of July weekend, as the country singer became engaged to her boyfriend, Chris Tyrell.

Tyrell, 24, proposed to the 25-year-old Grammy-winner during a holiday vacation in East Tennessee.

The haul also included best country album and album of the year for Need You Now; the title track won prizes for country performance by a group and best country song.

Eminem, who led the field with 10 nominations, walked away with only two prizes and lost out to Lady Gaga and rapper Jay Z, who won three awards each.

In a surprising twist to music's night of nights, Bieber was left holding nothing at the end of the night after he lost Best New Artist to Spalding and Best Pop Vocal Album, which went to Lady Gaga for Fame Monster.

"I need to say thank you tonight to Whitney Houston," Gaga said, as she accepted the award.

Best Album Notes

Nashville trio Lady Antebellum had a big day in New York on Friday that began with their debut performance on Good Morning America and ended with a visit to the U.S. Open Players Party on the rooftop of the Empire Hotel, where the band mingled with tennis elite.

“It was our first time on GMA, which was such an honor and exciting time to play in front of our great fans in NYC,” Lady Antebellum’s Dave Haywood tells RadarOnline.com. “And we’re huge tennis fans, so we had a blast at the U.S. Open party. We’re sad to see Serena [Williams] injured this year, but maybe it’s a chance for [Caroline]Wozniacki to get the Open title.”

Haywood says the band has written more than 25 new songs since the release of their breakout sophomore album, Need You Now, and they hope to release their follow-up in 2011. “We feel more honest with each other as songwriters,” Haywood said, adding that the band is about to start rehearsals for their upcoming tour, which kicks off September 20 in Orlando and ends in November in Kansas City.

“This will be our first time headlining,” he says. “We’ve been observing our mentors for a few years now, touring with Keith Urban and Kenny Chesney, so we’ll use our tricks from them and give it a shot.”
