MIRANDA, BLAKE: Shotgun Engagement

We've learned some details about Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's recent engagement party at Front Porch Farms outside of Nashville. The guest list included Reba McEntire, Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley, Martina McBride and Trace Adkins.

One of the couple's favorite gifts was matching flasks and shotguns, which they promptly tried out. Trace tells People Country, "When they started shooting their new shotguns, that's when it became a Blake and Miranda party." -- Rosemary Young
