Miranda Lambert presented the first of the 2012 American Country Awards winners with guitar on Monday (Dec. 10) night, but later came back to accept three of her own at the star-studded event. However, it was Luke Bryan's night to shine, as the 'I Don't Want This Night to End' singer won nine total ACAs, including two for his radio successes.

Other early winners included Lady Antebellum for Group of the Year and Single of the Year in the group category and Lauren Alaina, who cried when she won Artist of the Year: New Artist. Carrie Underwood snagged a guitar for Artist of the Year: Female and Jason Aldean took home Touring Artist of the Year.

Jake Owen and Little Big Town were the other big 2012 ACAs winners.
