U.S. Senate candidate Mike Padgett breaks the news and offers congratulations:

The very best of wishes to state Sen. Lowe Finney and his beautiful bride, Tiffany Staggs, who were wed earlier today at the chapel on the Lambuth University campus in Jackson.

Lowe has been a good friend both personally and politically. He has a big future ahead as a leader in Tennessee Democratic politics, and Tiffany will make a wonderful “first adviser.”
