Jamie Lynn Spears plans late fall wedding to take place at home

Is Jamie Lynn glorifying teen pregnancy? “So much fun. I’m happy all the time.”
OK! Magazine made a reported million dollar deal with 17 year-old Jamie Lynn Spears for exclusive coverage of her pregnancy and new baby. The magazine now has details of her upcoming wedding, and that probably means we can expect to see the photos there too. She plans to have a low-key ceremony and reception at her new home in Liberty, Mississippi, where she currently lives with her fiance and the father of her baby, Casey Aldridge. Jamie Lynn’s sister, Britney, will be her maid of honor, and the festivities will take place in Jamie Lynn’s backyard. OK! notes that they’ll have plenty of space as the house sits on three acres:

Despite their worldwide notoriety, the young couple won’t be swapping their vows at some 5-star celeb-filled resort, but will be sticking close to home. Jamie Lynn’s new house is in Liberty, Miss. — just 30 minutes from her mom Lynne Spears’ house, Serenity, in Kentwood, La. — and it sits on three acres, which is more than enough space to put up a tent for a private, late fall ceremony.

“She loves everything about the area where she lives. She’s not going to get married at some luxury resort in the Caribbean or a hotel in Beverly Hills,” a friend of the bride-to-be tells OK!. “Her own backyard with just the people who matter most is more Jamie Lynn’s style.”

And with the wedding approaching quickly, Jamie Lynn is planning to look her best on the big day. “She’s already down to her pre-pregnancy weight,” says the friend. “She has the cutest figure!”

Of course, big sis Britney Spears will be her Jamie Lynn’s maid of honor, and Casey’s sister Ashlee will be one of her bridesmaids. And tiny toddler Maddie will be an integral part of the wedding — possibly in a basket decorated with flowers and carried into the ceremony by the bride and groom’s mothers.

The photos from her wedding will fetch good money for Jamie and it’s not like she’s got a lot of career options at this point after Zooey 101. Is it a good move for her to publicize her wedding though? There were rumors that she was reluctant to pose for photos with her newborn, Maddie, because she didn’t want the media exposure, but that she had no choice because the contract was already signed. It’s also not the wisest move to get married at 17, even if you already have a baby with someone. There’s a lot of life experience lacking and there are years where you should spend finding yourself. Last week the Enquirer had a story that Jamie Lynn and Casey were fighting over calls to another woman she found in his cell phone records. Even if that wasn’t true, it’s hard to believe that these two are ready to commit the rest of their lives to each other.
