He invited her out to a show in Denver, Colo., and she later told People that "within the first five minutes of meeting Jon, it was game over for me. I texted my mom, 'Sell my house, sell my car, send my dog.'"

The singer has said that it was love at first sight for him, too.

"She was the first girl I've ever dated where I felt like she had my back and that we really were a team," he told People. "Summer is stunningly beautiful to look at, but that doesn't compare with her heart and how caring she is."

Pardi proposed in October 2019, during a show he was playing at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. They married in Murfreesboro, Tenn. on Nov. 21, 2020.

The couple's oldest daughter, Presley, was born on Feb. 18, 2023. They welcomed their second child, daughter Sienna, on July 16, 2024.

In May, Pardi shared a Mother's Day tribute to Summer, writing, "Happy mothers day to Super Mom."
