Congratulations are in order for Elizabeth Johnston and Brice Bolden!
The 7 Little Johnstons couple tied the knot on November 8 at the Johnston Family home in Forsyth, Georgia in a ceremony that, as Liz explained in an interview with People, represented “togetherness at the place where it all started.”
Avid ‘Johnstons’ fans can recall that Liz and Brice’s romance started back in 2019 when they ran into each other in the neighborhood; they lived just three houses away from each other, Liz explained, so “[it’s] where we spent most of our dating life.”
Their ceremony featured personal elements that tied the day together for the newlyweds and their loved ones. Leighton served as the flower girl, wearing a white dress with a matching white bow. The ceremony was officiated by Liz’s uncle, Jon Mills, who also led a unity candle lighting as a symbolic representation of the young couple becoming one.
After the ceremony, the reception featured dancing and a double-tiered white chocolate and raspberry bundt cake. The couple also decorated their reception to call attention to their families with a display of couples’ photos labeled “Love Stories Before Ours.”
Before leaving the ceremony in a tunnel of sparklers, Liz and Brice shared their first dance as husband and wife to Teddy Swims‘ cover of “You’re Still the One.”
When asked about future plans for their honeymoon and expanding their family, Liz explains that she’s not quite ready to leave Leighton yet, so their couples’ vacation will wait until their “one-year anniversary.” In the meantime, the couple looks forward to “officially being able to call ourselves a family of three, and being a team.”
As the show’s fans are aware, Liz and Brice got engaged on May 25 on the beach in Pensacola, Florida, surrounded by their family and friends. The ‘7 Little Johnstons’ Instagram page shared a photo of the newly-engaged couple and their now two-year old daughter, Leighton Drew, captioned, “On the beach with the Blue Angels flying overhead, he asked, and she said YES! It was the perfect moment with Leighty-Bug by their side.”

In an interview with People in June 2024 before Leighton’s first birthday, Liz explained her desire to give Leighton a younger sibling.
“I think one day when Leighton’s a little older, maybe closer to school, I can convince him for us to just have one more,” she told the magazine. “One more try for a little person is what I tell him.”
Leighton is an average-sized child like her dad, while her mom has achondroplasia dwarfism.

This show should be canceled. Trent and Amber are biased against Anna from day 1. I have watched this show for years. If any child was a problem and needed disciplined it was Alex. Anna never has or will come close to that child’s actions. Funny they made excuses for him! Anna was and is the black sheep. Liz is the angel, regardless of what she does. They lavish money and attention on her only. Cancel the show!
I understand there’s nothing at all to be ashamed about being a little person, but wishing you had a little person child for me….. Feels very selfish. You know all the trials and tribulations with bullying, medical stuff, and navigating every day life that’s challenging for a child… so I don’t understand wishing for a little person, knowing what they go through in life. Like ..am I only one that thinks this way? Obviously , it’s not a disease, but it is a challenging existence for a little person ..so I don’t understand why they would purposely wish to have a little person, knowing the challenges, especially medical … the child will face.
