Kelly Clarkson is expected to get married within the next month.
The singer and her fiancé Brandon Blackstock, who announced their engagement in December 2012, obtained a marriage licence on Tuesday (October 15), reports E! Online.
The couple are said to have signed their full names on the paperwork, which lasts 30 days from the date of issue - strongly suggesting that their nuptials will take place in the next four weeks.
Clarkson recently expressed a desire to start a family with Blackstock soon after they marry, joking that she would like a baby for Christmas.
In August, the 'Tie It Up' star revealed that the couple were opting for a low-key wedding, with only Blackstock's two children in attendance, after becoming "overwhelmed" with planning the big day.
Clarkson premiered her Christmas single 'Underneath the Tree' online today (October 18). The track comes from her upcoming festive album Wrapped In Red.
