It was not a smooth ride for "Teen Mom OG" stars Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra, the small town sweethearts from Michigan who were parents at 16 years old to daughter Carly but gave her away for adoption for a better life. The couple's relationship with their parents suffered following their decision about their daughter's adoption, but they stood together. Now, they are finally married.
According to MTV News, the couple who was featured in the opening season of "16 and Pregnant" and in its spinoff series exchanged their "I do" in the presence of their family and friends last Saturday, August 22, in a Renaissance-themed affair at Castle Farms in Michigan. Their daughter, Novalee, was the flower girl.
Among the guests at the ceremony were their co-stars Maci Bookout and boyfriend Taylor McKinney, Amber Portwood and fiancé Matt Baier as well as "Teen Mom 2" cast members Kailyn Lowry and husband Javi Marroquin. Their eldest daughter, Carly, and her adoptive parents, Brandon and Teresa, were also in attendance.
The newly wed were introduced in 2009 as teens when they worked on their adoption plan for Carly. They shared their story on "TM" from 2009 to 2012 and again in 2015. In a separate report from MTV News, the couple moved forward, graduated from high school, got engaged, enrolled in college and planned their wedding.
However, Tyler called off the wedding months before there were about to walk down the aisle and share their wedding vows. Tyler did it on national television on their appearance on VH1's reality show "Couple's Therapy." They were featured in "Being Catelynn" in 2014 when Tyler popped the question again, and, since then, they were back on track.
"I believe Cate was brought into this world and destined to be loved by me, cherished by me, admired by me, and forever cared for by me," Tyler told Us Weekly earlier about marrying Catelynn. "There is no one else I would rather be than her husband and the father of her children. ... I'm so honored and blessed to be able to grow old with her."
In response to Ty, Catelynn said, "I always prayed one day that Ty would be my husband, and I am beyond blessed that my prayers came true."
The ceremony was a success, but apart from the bride and groom, Bookout got the spotlight. Maci wore a tight white tank top tucked into a short beige skirt, highlighting her impressive post-baby figure. Many were happy that she's back in shape. Unfortunately, many were not impressed with her outfit, to which some considered inappropriate for a wedding.
