  3. Thanks for the photos. At least we didn't have to wait 2 months to see then like at Jill's. Could you ladies post a photo of the parents of the couple? We would really like to see Mrs. Seewald's and Michelle's dresses for this occasion. Thanks

  8. Beautiful pictures of the Wedding Party. Wow Jessa looks so beautiful in that dress!! Thanks for Sharing the wedding photos. Can't wait to see her Wedding just wish we did not have to wait so long after it happened to see it. TLC should be able to do a special to show it sooner. I am sure they would get more viewers if they showed it closer to the actual date of it taking place.

  9. Yes Jessa! Way to be AWSM! I love how she didn't have just her siblings in the wedding, I'm so glad she had Ben's sisters and her friends. (I love Ben's sisters btw. They seem like super sweet fun people) Ben's choices of groomsmen made me happy. Not just Duggar boys. The bridesmaids dresses where so amazing. Very modest and comfortable an could be worn again not to a wedding, but very appropriate and stylish for the wedding etc. I think they looked way more wearable than the ones Jill had.
    I'm also very impressed with her dress. I like white dresses, but she really pulled off that dress, and it looked so good on her!!!! Looks like a huge wedding! I'm so happy for Ben and Jessa! Also loved how they didn't have the first kiss in front of all those people, I don't know if I would have thought of that, but I also think having my first kiss in front of people would be horribly embarrassing. I'm glad they did what they where comfortable with. (I heard that Jim Bob and Michelle didn't know that they planned not to have the first kiss at the alter, but I have no clue if that's true or not.) I've liked Ben from the get go, I
    just hope they move an he gets a job... ,but that's not really my business I guess :) So long as they are happy.

    GOOD LUCK BEN AN JESSA SEWALD! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR MARRIAGE! THE BEST TO YOU!

  14. I love the duggars and can't wait to see the wedding episode, although now all the scandal news is kinda overshadowing the good. Lily or ellie do you no if the duggars will release any sort of statement about the blogger saying she was at the wedding and that jessa was caught in an compromising position in church?

    ReplyDelete
  15. What a lovely bridal party. The bride looks beautiful. I love that Jordyn-Grace is holding on to Jessa's arm. It is adorable. It is like she is saying you may be married ,but you are still staying at home with me!

  25. I've not seen cousin Amy in any wedding pictures. Was she there?

  26. Lily and Ellie,

    Do you know why Jessa isn't wearing her engagement ring in the up close picture? Is it because her wedding ring was attached to it?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Not sure why she wasn't wearing her engagement ring, but the picture was taken before she walked down the aisle as mentioned in to the caption in the top, right corner.

      Delete
    2. Sometimes I only get to read posts months after an event. The reason Jessa had no engagement ring on the wedding day was cause Ben designed the wedding ring to surround the engagement ring. My husband had my engagement ring the day of our wedding cause the wedding ring surrounded it and became one ring when put together. Ben did the same thing. No way to separate the rings and it is actually much safer....you are far less likely to lose one ring!

  31. I wish both Jessa and Jill the best of luck. I love watching the show and I haven't missed an episode. I've been watching since the show first came on the air, and the Duggar family is such an inspiration to me. I really wished I could have raised my children just like Michelle and Jim - Bob raised theirs. Can't wait to watch Jessa ' s wedding to Ben episode. I cried like a baby when Jill got married, so I know I will cry watching Jessa marry Ben. I Love The Duggar Family and one day I would love to meet all of you.

  32. Jessa and Ben
    all the other married couples have the man before the womans name in the front website blog picture. Out of respect for Ben his name should be first also.
    Cant wait to see the wedding.

  42. Beautiful bridal party, and the private first kiss as husband and wife is so classy; what a lovely way to start their lives together.

    ReplyDelete
  43. There are things I just don't get. They don't share their first kiss in public, they kept it private....and then a racy kiss pic is all over the internet of them....racy for a Duggar....I'm shocked. I never expected something like that from a Duggar girl. I know she's married, but that type of pose is a bit much to have all over cyberspace.

    I think it's sending mixed messages to their young female fans who may be confused about all of this. Just saying, if you want to be the poster child of purity, don't post those types of pics on the internet. Some things are best not seen.

    1. Give it a rest. At least she waited to be married to get her first kiss. If the young girls you're talking about practice one forth of the Duggar's beliefs, the stats on teenage pregnancy and drug related incidents will be at an all time low.

  44. I think its a real shame she didn't have Anna as a bridesmaid! That is her sister in law who has been in her life for years and always will. I am pretty sure Jessa was a bridesmaid for Anna too :(

  47. I really do think that Jessa had a beautiful wedding and I wish Ben and Jessa much happiness together. Her dress was absolutely gorgeous. Also, I think whoever did the flowers for both Jill and Jessa's wedding did a wonderful job. I absolutely the love the flower arrangements in both of their weddings.

  48. I love her colors! She looks so pretty.

  49. Thank you so much for sharing your family & faith with us. I have enjoyed watching your family grow & go through all life's stages. Congrats to both Jill & Jessa! You both were beautiful brides. May God's light continue to shine in your life & hearts.

  50. Love the pictures. But didn't it hurt some of Jessa's sisters feelings that they weren't a part of this wedding too. I bet Josie was mad because she wasn't a flower girl again and it was just Jordyn and Ben's little sister, Faith as the flower girls. But I'm glad that Jessa had Ben's two teenage sisters were a part of the wedding. I suppose it just didn't fit in the wedding budget to use all Jessa's sisters and brothers and all Ben's sisters and brothers in the wedding. But I bet a few of Jessa's brothers were ushers.

  51. I love the way Ben and Jessa are beaming with pure love. This was a such a beautiful wedding and such a beautiful example for other young people. God Bless this marriage with many children and so much love.

  54. I really do not care for the Groomsmen attire. Maybe a jacket would make it look better. The Bridesmaid dresses are ok. Definitely would not be my first choice but maybe she got a good deal on them. She has a lot of attendants. I like the length and the skirt. The top is a little different.

  55. Just wondering if the Kellers came to Jill's or Jessa's wedding? I admire Mike and Suzanne Keller!

  66. Its amazing watching this family grow and thrive from a family of 16 to 21plus. They have taught us about family value, faith and love. So what if they have 19 kids. Their kids have never gone hungry they are always well dressed and aside from normal illnesses... in good health. Jim Bob and Michelle have raised their kids on their own. They have provided for them very well and all of their kids at this point are productive happy well adjusted adults. Who are going to bring more beautiful grand babies.. can't wait to see grandma and grandpa keep the names straight of 50+ grandkids.. lol. Thank you

  71. Jill Dillard was on her honeymoon when Jessa had her engagement party. They said that in the episode.

    1. From my understanding, Jessa got engaged on August 14, and Jill got married on June 21. So Jessa's shower would have been well after Jill & Derick returned from their honeymoon. Six days after Jessa's engagement, Jill found out that she was pregnant. My best guess, and that's all it is, is that Jill was suffering from her most severe morning sickness at the time of Jessa's shower. Having suffered from severe morning sickness myself, I know it can very well keep you bedridden or in the hospital ~ certainly not well enough to attend a social event, especially one with lots of food, no matter how much love you have for the guest of honor. Whatever the situation, I'm sure Jill's heart and spirit were with her precious sister. I love how close all of the Duggar sisters are, as I, too, am blessed to have close, loving sisters of my own. May God's blessings be with all of The Duggars and with all of His children. Your sister in Christ, Kristin.

  72. I agree with #44. What was Jessa thinking? She seems to take way too many selfies.

  73. Thank you for sharing the photos. It is nice to see the two families representing on such a special day. It appears both were on each side, groom and bride.
    Hope all went well and the day is full of wonderful memories.

  75. Mrs. Keller's given name is actually Suzette. One of her daughters, though, is named Susanna.

    I noticed that Jessa's name is before Ben's name also...unlike the other married couples where the man's name is first.

  77. The girls looked great but I'm not liking what the guys wore. Blue suits, gray shirts & the orange-ish bow ties..which didn't match the dresses at all?! White shirts would have at least saved the day but gray suits with white shirts & the orange-ish bow ties would have been best if that's the colors she wanted. Michelle's dress?? I suppose she went with the blue in the color theme? Not liking it. I still don't understand the two little girls having hot pink sashes on their dresses. Maybe because the wedding gown was pink? I don't know but it looks like a thrift store thrown together wedding. Anna however looked SMASHING! As did Josh!

    ReplyDelete
  78. Lovely wedding and photographs.
    Thank you for making them available so soon after the wedding!

    A brief aside...I personally chalk the " the selfie' up to immaturity and hormones. IMO, it was not in the best of taste to go public with such a graphic private, happily-married moment. But life goes on
    and common sense settles in.

  85. Still laughing, get a grip people. Dising jessa about her choses of wedding colos and style. Or the smooching. There a normal Christian couple, married people like to kiss we are married after all. Im much older than jessa and I still like to kiss my husband. Keep setting a good example
