Luke Combs is a busy man these days; he's currently on the road playing sold-out shows all over the country.

Luke admits that he doesn't get that quality time that he used to have with family and friends. As he told us, that time is quite important. "After you have success, you realize how important the little things are, even more so now. Obviously, family and friends are things that I value even more, and I get those moments less and less."

He adds, "As time goes on so I try to call my parents as much as I can and get them out to as many shows as I can. It's just something that's really important to me."

Combs did make time for a wedding of a friend's recently. His wife Nicole posted a picture of the couple on Instagram. She wrote, "Great times celebrating the Misler/Gilbert wedding last night with some of the best people! 💙 I learned that the correct way to cut a wedding cake is the checkerboard method, you should never give grown men knives with a holster, and that fatheads are great for trolling people (even at weddings) 😂."
