We never imaged there would be photos of us that say "PEOPLE Exclusive" on them. But we're honored to share this amazing chapter in a story only God could write. What an insane adventure, y'all! And it's only just beginning!!
This is one sentiment expressed by singer and song writer Jamie Grace, who Marries her Fiancé After 5-Month Courtship.
People.com wrote an exclusive on the couple just after the wedding, adding to the many gifts the couple received for celebrating their union. For the Grammy-nominated Christian singer Jamie Grace, who first rose to fame on YouTube, marrying Aaron Collins on April 14, 2018 was a dream come true.
The couple recited the traditional vows at the North Metro Baptist Church in Lawrenceville in Georgia USA.
"Diagnosed with Tourette syndrome (a neurological disorder that can cause uncontrollable tics and compulsive utterances or obscene outbursts) when she was 11 years old, Grace, 26, never allowed it to hamper her spirit, instead choosing to raise her voice and inspire others through song." Jamie was nominated for a Grammy and a Billboard Music Award when she was just 19 while her now husband, the Atlanta-native, a model and actor, 23. Jamie's husband Aaron Collins, swept her off her feet when they met last November and they embarked on a five-month courtship that ended in the wedding of her dreams. The bride told Peoples exclusive that “Aaron is, by far, the most amazing man I have ever met,” and that after one of her shows in 2016, he “slid into my DMs on Instagram”. Aaron proposed to the gospel singer in January 2018
As she told Essence in March, “I always felt like I was kind of in a limbo when it came to dating and telling guys that I had Tourettes because it wasn’t something life-threatening, and it wasn’t something that I, in a dating relationship, really needed them to do anything.”
She continued, “But I did need understanding, and I did need the freedom to be able to twitch so that I’m not sitting at dinner for two or three hours, and holding in a huge part of who I am and then getting sick later because I was trying to suppress everything.”
While some guys “wanted me to prove it to them or they thought it was funny and I was just gonna cuss,” she told Essence that when it came to Collins, he had an unusual reaction. “He was so nonchalant about it, it made me even more nervous. I was like, ‘Wait, he didn’t ask me a bunch of questions…Why is he so relaxed right now?'” And he also shared her Christian faith and views on abstinence. “I’ve been very open about saving sex for my husband,” says Grace, who explains courting as dating with intention. “It was a decision that I made when I was a teenager. Aaron and I decided separately, before we met, to be intentional in our dating lives in a way that would someday lead to marriage.” And finding true love was worth the wait. Says Grace of her new husband: “He is patient, kind, hilarious, driven, talented, joyful, handsome and a fearless leader who seeks to love God and love people in every moment of his life.”
