  1. Thank you so much for posting these lovely pictures. God willing today is wonderful, I pray for the best for all of your family.

    I am up late working on my own wedding plans. I pray all goes well and I will marry in December.

    As a Jill, a bride, and a fan of the show; Jill's wedding and planning process has been very motivational and inspirational. I had a "love at first skype" romance and went from courting to engaged in two months! Soon after our engagement, my fiancé had to move 8,000miles away as part of a scholarship requirement.

    God has kept us strong throughout this trying time.

    Thank you Duggar family for helping remind us to focus on God and family.

    Peace be with you.

  6. Thanks for more photos. Does anyone know why Jill and Derick knelt down at the rail as I don't understand that part of the ceremony. What were they looking at or doing?
    Why does Michelle NEVER wear heels? She absolutely always wears total flats?
    I would have liked to see a photo of Derick's side of the family in a group picture of them alone, without the Duggars. We know who they are, but who are these people in Derick's family? thanks
    Why was Josie the only flower girl wearing leggings under her flower girl dress? Is she not totally toilet trained? Mac is right around her age too so what gives?

  7. Lily and Ellie-
    Why did they not show Amy sing at the wedding? I would've loved to hear it!

  8. Lily and Ellie,
    Are you going to Jessa's wedding? Please post pics if you are. Thank you for all you do.
    I hope they have as many pictures as Jill has. We would love to have more details. I just wonder if TLC is keeping them mum this time around. I hope not. I know you will share what details and pics you can though. You girls are great!

  12. What a great idea, Setting up a place for guests to highlight their favourite Bible verse and sign next to it. That keepsake bible will be cherished for generations.

  16. Is there a video anywhere of the song that Amy sang at the wedding? I was sad they didn't show that part. Loved watching Jill's wedding and can't wait to see Jessa's!

  19. when do we get to see Jill's wedding in the uk?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Did the Ruarks attend? Were they invited? I'd like to see a photo of them as these group pics aren't labeled who's who. I wish that would have been done. Thanks for posting them anyway.

  21. I think getting to know Ben more will really help all the people who are unsure about him.We really have not had the chance to get to know him.The bits we have seen have been minimal at best and what they did portray wasnt really much about who he really is.Every one deserves a chance.Im very happy for them, i wonder if they will live closer to his family or hers?CONGRADULATIONS Mr. and Mrs.Seewald!

  22. tell Jeremiah I the purse he's holding in the picture!

  23. Why would have Michelle wanted to match colors with the male attendants and family? It looks like the women were wearing mint green, even Amy. Doesn't add up that Michelle would want to look like the guys, especially in their belief system.

  24. The picture of Joseph walking Johanna down the isle is the most darling picture!

  25. Congrats to both couples and may God bless ya'll !!!!

  26. I really don't understand the disrepect shown to Jessa by posting many so pictures of Jill's wedding on Jessa's wedding day.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Is it strange to anyone else that Derick's step-father is not included in any photos and never seems to be acknowledged in almost any way?

    ReplyDelete
  28. The photos are wonderful! The bride looks gorgeous, love her dress and veil. The flower girls are completely darling! and those dresses! Bridesmaids, beautiful and really like the color and style they chose. Kudos to Jana for her work altering the dresses. Love Michelle's Mother of the Bride dress she looks fab!

  29. Thank you for sharing the lovely pictures, I am sure it was to offset the fact we wont see Jessa & Ben's anytime soon.
    I noticed most of the grooms men pockets were full of phones and keys, I guess the organizer didn't mention it draws away from good photos and slacks bunch and bulge when walking down the isle. You would think with all the security they have personal items could be locked in a room for the special day. I grew up in churches setting up weddings with my mother. Oh well 17 more to go.......

    #8 that's so cute...but it is custom to help elders to their seat by holding items for them. Takes a real man to hold a purse, I am so proud of him...start young to care for our older love ones....

    When does next season start to see Jessa & Ben wedding please?

  30. The Bible Verse thing is the most sweetest and loving thing I have ever seen.
    WONDERFUL!
    Blessings,

  31. I was surprised Jill didn't fix her hair up. It looked like how she could wear it any average day. Didn't expect that for her wedding day.

    Hi Anonymous 3,

    We chatted with Josiah at the wedding this weekend. He is doing very well and is passionate about serving others in disaster situations, which is what he has been training for at ALERT.

  34. I was surprised that TLC cut out almost all the shots and didn't even have any sides of the Bates family at Jill and Derricks wedding.. I guess the ended their contact on a sour note.
    Im excited for their new show to start in the new year!
    I would love to see some more pictures of Jessa's wedding and the bridesmaids dresses!
    God Bless! x

  35. I wished they would have showed some of this during the episode rather than Jill shaving Derrick before the ceremony and other such peculiar things that TLC decided to air. I would have rather heard the singers at the wedding ceremony itself instead of the leadup to it. BUt that's TV for ya, ditch the spiritual aspect and show the other parts.

  38. Beautiful wedding!
    Is there any way we can watch Amy's song? Thanks :)

    ReplyDelete
  39. @AnonymousFor the person who asked all those questions Jill and Derrick were praying and Josie most likely had the leggings because she's four and was most likely more comfortable! Hope that helped!
