Cole Swindell and fiancée Courtney Little are getting married!
The “Middle of a Memory” singer proposed to Little in May 2023. Following the engagement, the country artist told PEOPLE, "It's hard to put into words how happy I am. ... She makes me better, and I'm the happiest I've ever been in all parts of my life."
Swindell and Little got engaged right at the site of their first date — on a farm north of Nashville, where Little starred in Swindell’s music video for his 2022 song “Some Habits."
"That was kind of like our first date," he previously told PEOPLE. "Pretending like you're in a relationship on camera — that was pretty awkward. That was the first time we really got a chance to hang. We went out after we shot the video, and we've been together ever since."
Swindell added: "It's a pretty, pretty wild story, but you never know. They say songs are powerful. I feel like now, after meeting her, I can finally check all the boxes."
Little made their relationship Instagram official in October 2021 when she shared a photo of herself with Swindell at an Atlanta Braves game. “The Braves win and so do I 🤩,” she captioned the post.

Swindell initially met Little at a NASCAR event before she starred in his music video for “Some Habits.”
“We met several years ago actually," the country music star said during an interview on The Bobby Bones Show in 2022. "You know, I’m a big NASCAR fan, and she works with Monster. We just kind of met and exchanged numbers and kept in touch over the years — but it never was anything, just kind of friends. Randomly saw her here and there, but the video kind of changed everything.”

Swindell popped the question to Little in May 2023. Before proposing, however, he spoke to his future father-in-law.
"That's probably the most nervous I've ever been because he's such a great man," Swindell told PEOPLE. "I can't wait to be part of her family. She comes from a good one, and that's what made that so nerve-wracking. I can't imagine being a dad of a daughter and having that conversation."
Little also shared the happy news on Instagram. “Woke up as future Mrs. Swindell 💠I’ve never been so happy! I can’t believe we are ENGAGED!!!!! 🥹,” she captioned the smiling photos.
Swindell told PEOPLE he planned the proposal down to the last detail, including Little’s oval-shaped engagement ring. "I put the ring on her finger, and we've been all smiles ever since," he said.
