“In honor of that time shared, we are throwing a divorce party,” the two say in their statement, inviting friends to “An evening together in Nashville to re-affirm our friendship and celebrate the past and future with close friends and family.”

According to the invitation, the bash marks the end of their marriage with “dancing, photos, memories and drinks with alcohol in them. This is only for close personal friends and family. So please no plus ones or deadbeats.”
