Sunny Sweeney
Texas-born singer-songwriter
Sunny Sweeney and longtime boyfriend Jeff
Hellmer were married Friday (Nov. 11) in Las Vegas. Hellmer, a sergeant with the Austin Police Department in Texas, previously
served as a staff sergeant in the U.S. Air Force. A small group of friends and family joined the couple for the ceremony at
the Little White Chapel, where numerous celebrities, including Natalie Maines of the
Dixie
Chicks, have gotten married. Sweeney and Hellmer wrote their own wedding vows. The groom composed his vows from lyrics
to country songs. Ironically, Sweeney's current single is titled
"Drink
Myself Single." The track is featured on her
Concrete album, released in August. Her tour schedule includes a Tuesday
(Nov. 15) appearance in Asheville, N.C.
