Country singerTieraand creative director Kamren Kennedy tied the knot on Saturday atSouthall Meadowsin Franklin, Tennessee, PEOPLE confirms exclusively.
Tiera, 23, and Kennedy, 25, started dating seven years ago after the two met while Kennedy helped the singer with her creative ventures, music videos and photos.
“We just clicked from the very beginning,” the “Found It In You” singer tells PEOPLE. “We loved working together and hanging out together and were best friends from that very first FaceTime.”

The couple met in 2014 when Tiera posted a picture of a camera she wanted to buy to share a YouTube cover. Kennedy quickly slid into her DMs.
“Kamren (being the filmmaker he is) messaged me and said ‘I can show you how to use your camera’ and so we FaceTimed and he actually did help me with my camera,” she says with a laugh. “But afterward, we never stopped talking and here we are seven years later.”

As for her dress, Ila was only the second dress store Tiera — who also hostsThe Tiera Showon Apple Music — visited but she knew right away when she tried on the gown.
“I don’t like to ponder on things too much so I didn’t want to overthink the dress choice,” she says about the dress. “It’s definitely true what they say about the bride wanting the exact opposite of what she thought she wanted. I came out with a dress I always said I’d never wear.”

The couple tells PEOPLE they were most “excited to be introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy” and couldn’t wait to “get down on the dance floor at the reception with our friends and family!” But first, Tiera and her dad planned to hit a more nostalgic note.
