The couple privately began dating in 2020, before going public with their relationship at theGrand Ole Opryon Nov. 19, 2022 — the night afterArnold popped the big question!

In February 2024, the couple got married in a"big, loud" wedding ceremonyin downtown Nashville. Alaina and Arnold shared personalized vows, walked out of the ceremony with their dogs in tow and celebrated with food from all over the world.

Of the many things she loves about her husband, Alaina told PEOPLE his normalcy has been a refreshing addition to her busy, on-the-go lifestyle. She also found it rather charming thatArnold wasn’t aware of her celebrity statusprior to dating.

“He’s a good teammate. He’s my best friend in the whole wide world. He wears a suit for work every day, and I’m not sure that he had any idea who I was when he met me. And I’m still not sure he fully does know who I am!” Alaina said. “I’m just kidding. But he’s very normal. He’s from Georgia like me. He’s just awesome.”

Arnold and Alaina are currentlyexpecting their first child. They shared the news exclusively with PEOPLE in January 2025.

On Nov. 18, 2022, Arnold got down on one knee andasked Alaina to marry him. The singer announced the happy news the following evening during a performance at the Grand Ole Opry.

“I was welcomed into this family, and it was a dream of mine as long as I can remember,” she began, referencingher Opry induction ceremonyearlier that year. “I didn’t think this year could get any better, [but Friday] I got asked into another family!”

Then, for the first time ever, Alaina introduced Arnold to fans. “I told him he had to come out here and we had to get a picture — we’re doing it because this is the circle, and I’m going to hold my hand up and do the thing. Make some noise for my future husband, everybody!”

The “Getting Good” singer confirmed to PEOPLE that she and Arnold had been secretly dating for the last two and a half years. “I can’t wait to be Mrs. Cameron Scott Arnold. I’m so excited for everyone to know who he and we are. The best is still to come,” she said.

Alaina swore off dating people in the music industry prior to meeting Arnold

Unlike many of her fellow country performers, Alaina had no interest in dating someone in the country music industry — or any music genre, for that matter. “I didn’t want anyone in the industry at all. And boy, I got everything I could have ever wanted,” she said about her then-fiancé.

Speaking with PEOPLE in 2020, Alaina shared that moving forward, she wouldno longer be posting about her love lifeon social media unless she was in a serious relationship. The singer-songwriter joked that unless she heard wedding bells in their future, they probably wouldn’t be on her grid.

“I’m going to be 100 percent sure that it’s going to work out before I go broadcast anything,” Alaina said at the time. “I’ve been joking that I’ll be pretty much walking down the aisle before I’m going to tell people about him!”

He has country singer Jon Pardi’s stamp of approval

Alaina may have initially refrained from introducing Arnold to the public, but those close to the “Road Less Traveled” singer, including country music starJon Pardi, got a chance to “vet” Arnold early on in their relationship.

“Jon and I are very good friends, like we hang out all the time,” Alaina said while promoting their 2020 joint single, “Getting Over Him,” during a radio show appearance on99.5 WYCD. In fact, a few years back, she gave Pardi permission to “vet all the boyfriends” after he caught her then-boyfriend in a lie.

Not too long after, Alaina began dating Arnold, and Pardi was amongst the first people to meet him. “I made Jon meet him, and he likes him, so we’re good!” Alaina shared. “I’ve just never posted about him or anything because he’s just mine. He’s just a regular guy. He’s a business guy, goes to work every day in a suit. He’s a normal guy. He’s from Georgia, I’m from Georgia, and Jon Pardi likes him!”

While keeping their relationship top-secret was a conscious decision on Alaina’s part, Arnold was also a big proponent of maintaining a level of privacy in his personal life.

“He likes to be in the shadows,” Alaina told PEOPLE of her then-fiancé’s quiet personality. Albeit, she couldn’t pass up the opportunity of commemorating their engagement with pictures taken in the Grand Ole Opry circle during her set.

“He didnotwant to do that!” she recalled with a laugh. “He was like, ‘You’re not making me come out there,’ and I said, ‘You are notnotgetting a picture in the circle.’ "
