When Kelsea Ballerini and Morgan Evans got married on the beach earlier this month, they capped off their nuptials with shots of tequila. But Ballerini tells People it wasn't just because they tied the knot in Mexico. "It's a little bit different, but that's how we started," the 24-year-old says. When she and Evans met while co-hosting a March 2016 awards show in his native Australia, "He was like, 'Let's take a shot' [at the afterparty]," she explains. "I remember taking that shot and putting it down and looking at him like, 'Oh...he's super hot.' Later that night he leaned over and asked if he could kiss me, like a proper gentleman, and I said yes."
