Kendra looks so beautiful In the picture!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats🎉🎉🎉Joe and Kendra Duggar!!!
Wow! Joy's looking very pregnant here.
ReplyDeleteI thought same thing!
DeleteI think she is expecting twins.
DeleteI think she is expecting twins.
DeleteI think she just carries bigger like Jill.
DeleteIt's like they were trying not to show all the married ones. I believe Jill is the one overseas you think three months has passed she would have had the baby by now and hopefully the one that just got married three months ago is twins either way she is pretty big for 3 months
Deletebeautiful couple may god bless you with many years of love peace and happiness
ReplyDeleteCute picture but you can see it was photoshopped to look like it was all taken at once. Also, I'm going to go there. Joy is either having multiples or she is much further along.
ReplyDeleteWhile we're on theories, why are some of the wedding party "missing" there??
DeleteOr she is like Jill and always looks further along than she is. I thought Jill looked like she was having twins when she was pregnant both times.
DeleteI agree! I thought the same thing.
DeleteThey left some people out......
DeleteThe pictures are just lovely. They look so happy!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations you two beautifull families you come from and a beautiful family you will make love ya all
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful....Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThat wedding party picture is hilarious!!! How fun! I love it!
ReplyDeleteCongrats
I do too!
DeleteThe top photo is gorgeous; the bottom one is pointless.
ReplyDeleteBoth pictures are wonderful! I love the playful bottom one! Very unique!
DeleteI bet you are a blast at parties! Its just a bit of fun, they are young people having a lighthearted moment having photographs taken, I think its cute and funny.
DeleteWhat do you mean pointless, it was supposed to be a silly picture?
DeleteCongratulations and best wishes. May Father God bless you with many happy, healthy, joyous, God centered years together. May you always hear His voice and follow His lead. May your children come to know His love and accept His gift of salvation. Stay well and God bless. Side-hug!
ReplyDeleteWho was the young man that sung butterfly kisses he did a very good job?
DeleteHis name is Josh Wilson. http://www.duggarfamilyblog.com/2017/10/joe-and-kendras-unity-candle-song.html
DeleteLily and Ellie
That is one of the most beautiful couple's pictures I have ever seen. Perfect everything.
ReplyDeleteWell, the shoes, again. Jingers getting there but I expect more from Jessa.
ReplyDeleteJoy has the pregnant pose down to show the baby bump.
Stephanie: I agree even if they would co-ordinate the color of the girls shoes it would look so much better, and Jessa has worn those same sandals to almost every wedding. I also cannot get past the mens pants, Joes especially need at least two inches off the length, and does no one in the family own an iron, the all have really noticable fold creases in them, you would surely press them for such an important occassion?
DeleteThe casual shoes really spoil the otherwise beautiful look.
DeleteThey all have shoes on. Some of them are just a very light color.
DeleteAll the brides so far haven't understood that if they're dressed to the nines, their bridal party ought to be, too. Having a formal bride and a casual bridal party looks too disjointed.
DeleteYes, 4 this occasion, one in life, buy something instead of thrift. I don't like all the different color & style of shoes
DeleteWhat beautiful photos! I love the photos of the wedding party being goofy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Such lovely photos.. and the decorations are outstanding! Congrats to the happy couple and their families. Thanks for sharing this special day with all of us.
ReplyDeleteI wish the couple every happiness in their marriage. They look so happy. I'm a big fan of the Duggers. Every family has their share of problems but it's how you deal with those problems that matter. And they seem to deal with them pretty well.
ReplyDeleteI looked through the additional photos. Wow. She has got to be the most beautiful, beaming bride I have seen in ages.
ReplyDeleteI agree -- radiant. And I loved the veil over her face. Many brides don't do that anymore.
DeleteJust looked through the additional photos, and wow! It was a beautiful wedding! Kendra looks absolutely stunning. I love the decorations in the church. Kendra's mother is beautiful and looks so young-- I thought she was a sister or friend until I saw the picture of Mom and Dad with Kendra. The photos of Kendra and Joe are breath-taking. I remember how joyous my wedding was, but I bet even more so for them getting to experience the freedom to touch and hold each other as husband and wife! Precious! ❤️
DeleteIs jessa expecting again?
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the same thing. She is hiding her stomach and something looks different about her face. I wouldn't be surprised at all if she is, because she was pregnant with Henry by the time Spurgeon was six months old and Henry is now six months old.
DeleteJoy looks a lot more than 3 months.. I was smaller at 6 months with twins lol
ReplyDeleteShe looks about five months pregnant or having twins.
DeleteThe married couple are off center in group pic. Was that intentional?
ReplyDeleteMaybe because it's cut off at Jill who is posing to someone and also Johanna who was a bridesmaid isn't in the visible photo we see.
DeleteA lot of the right side of the picture was cropped off. They couldn't show the entire wedding party. There was someone who isn't allowed to appear on the show.
DeleteThey cut Josh out.
DeleteCute! Is it just me or does Jill look pregnant? (shes on the end
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing. I tried to look back at pics of her since Sam was born. But her stomach definitely looks really puffed out in this one.
DeleteCome on ! She just gave birth less than 2 months ago ... You are just rude !
DeleteI think maybe baby weight from her second
DeleteShe only had a baby two months ago. Probably just hasn't worked off the baby weight yet.
DeleteJill gave birth to Samuel, on July 8th. Thus, she is probably, still carrying, some baby weight.
DeleteMost women still have a 'tummy' for a little while after giving birth, and Jill had a second c-section just a couple of months ago it will take a while for muscles to heal and I am sure she is also carrying some baby weight, give her a chance!
DeleteI doubt it. She just had an extremely difficult delivery two months ago and had a very large baby. She also seems to hold on to the weight longer than Jessa and Anna do. However, I think that Jessa might be pregnant.
DeleteThat is just her postpartum belly it is normal
DeleteKendra's dress is gorgeous!! Love how Joy is showing off her baby bump in the group photo lol.🖤
ReplyDeleteI dislike the way the pregnant women put their hand under their belly to "show off the baby bump". It's been done time and time again. Just stand there and look good. We'll all know that you're expecting! UGG!
DeleteI agree! It's a good look for a pregnancy shoot but when you are not the primary subject in a picture, like this group pic for someone else's wedding, don't do it! It's not about you
DeleteI don't care for the hand cradling the baby, either. I don't think I did that even once during pregnancy.
DeleteDid you all notice that it was a picture where EVERYone was posing in non-serious ways? I'm sure she didn't put her hand on her baby in the more serious pictures.
DeleteI absolutely love Kendra's dress!! The top is gorgeous and the skirt is just beautiful. She was a beautiful bride.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Its a sophisticated and gorgeous choice. Kendra has great taste!
DeleteI agree. I also like the bridesmaid dresses. Really nice photos. Eileen
DeleteThat dress or variations of it is very common here. My daughter, who married this summer, tried on several dresses that were similar to Kendra"s. One was identical, if not the same. That one cost $3500.
DeleteShe (my daughter) decided that the top was too heavy for the bottom. The dress would also look better with a sash to define the waist.
I am curious about the timing of these Duggar weddings. Ordering a wedding dress usually takes 6 to 8 months. That is even if you buy a dress from a local designer (and especially so). The Duggars and the Duggar daughter-in-laws must have to buy a sample/sale dress "off the rack" and hope they do not have to modify the dress too much.
I didn't care for the dress, either. Those tiers were done ages ago by the top bridal designers (Wang, Cassini, etc.). That look has now trickled down into off-the-rack bridal, only not done with as much polished panache.
DeleteThe top and the bottom do have a bit of mismatch going on visually. You're right, there should be something at the waist to bring top and bottom together. The change is abrupt. I don't care for the high neckline, either. It doesn't go with the very short cap sleeves. A more scooped or portrait neckline would have been better, yet still "modest."
All in all, I'm not surprised that this dress style would appeal to a very young bride like Kendra. As far as your question about gown ordering time, this was another creation by Renee. Whether she altered an off-the-rack gown or sewed this one from scratch remains to be explained.
The (recent) Duggar brides have gowns custom-made nearly overnight by a designer who provides them for free in exchange for exposure on the television show. The process has been featured in all of the wedding episodes. $3500 for a dress to wear one day (and not long, in brides like Joy's case), would be absolutely ridiculous.
DeleteJimBob and Michelle you ha a mighty way of bringing up your children to love the Lord and to get them to make God the center of their world. You have been blessed with two beautiful daughter in laws. This Kendra is gorgeous and your son did well picking this one to love.
ReplyDeleteDaughters-in-law
DeleteWow Joy Anna is really really pregnant. Fo we know her due date?
ReplyDeleteKim
It would be mid-February assuming it was a wedding night conception.
DeleteJoy is huge.
ReplyDeleteJessa and Joy should have nicer shoes on. Their very casual flat sandals do not go with their pretty lace dresses. But otherwise, it is a cute picture with everyone making faces!! And the single picture of Joe and Kendra is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Especially Jessa's shoes. She wears them a lot with jean skirts and other casual outfits. The brown thong type sandals just throw off the whole look. I wonder if Kendra was ok with all the mismatched shoes? Other than that, everything looked very pretty
DeleteNo, they should have the shoes that the bride and they decide on.
DeleteAgree. The everyday sandals look pretty silly with an otherwise beautiful wedding.
DeleteWow Joy Anna looks very pregnant! How far along is she? Also I thought Josh was a part of the wedding party as he was (in separate photos) dressed in the same outfit as the groomsmen. It looks like he was stood next to Jill and have been cropped out.
ReplyDeleteActually, the groomsmen were in 3 piece suits. Some men who were not groomsmen were wearing the same tie as the groomsmen and had boutineers.
DeleteI agree. This photo has been cut and pasted.
DeleteYour right Josh has been cropped out of the bottom picture. I think this is because it is a TLC picture, and they cannot show Josh under any circumstances. I am glad they are keeping their word on this, he should not be allowed any platform.
DeleteKendra looks lovely. it's hard to think of Joseph as married I still think of him as too young although hes older than joy so it's weird
ReplyDeleteThought Anna was in the wedding?
ReplyDeleteNo Josh is but he is cropped out on the right near Jill. Since the blog already posted pictures of him not sure why they cropped him out of this photo. On the Duggar site he's in those photos. Curious how TLC is going to keep Josh out of this wedding unless they have decided to add him back in. I for one don't think they should add him back in and I think it will cost them even more advertisers for their other shows.
DeleteI think so too. Someone did say Joe and Kendra had 22 attendants in their wedding. Including the little kids in the above picture, there are 18, so four are missing...maybe Josh, Anna, Trace Bates and one more?
DeleteJohannah is missing. I think Josh, Anna, Trace Bates and Johannah are the 4 missing from the picture above, to make up the 22 attendants
DeleteThe photographer for their wedding did an absolutely wonderful job! All of the photo's I've seen are just beautiful, Kendra and Joseph look stunning!
ReplyDeleteThe photos are beautiful!! I love the colour scheme. And wow, Joy is getting so big! Pregnancy suits her! And am I mistaken, or is Jill pregnant?? She looks very pregnant in that photo of the whole wedding party...
ReplyDeleteShe just had a baby 2 months ago. Some people's bodies don't snap back immediately, especially if they had a c - section like Jill
DeleteJill looks like a woman who has had her abdomen cut open through surgery (C-section) for the second time, a couple of months ago.
DeleteShe gave birth just a couple of months ago, she simply has a belly from her pregnancy with Henry, wich is normal.
DeleteJill is most likely not pregnant, she has JUST recently had a baby so yah
DeleteI think it would be too soon for her to be pregnant again. She probably just hasn't lost all of her baby weight. Completely understandable - especially since she's had two c-sections.
DeleteShe just had Samuel in July. It takes time for the body to change after having a baby-- especially after a c-section. It is a major surgery with post-surgical swelling that takes time to resolve, as well.
DeleteJill might still be trying to loose the baby weight from her second.
DeleteJill just had a baby a couple months ago... she probably just hasn't lost all of the belly yet. Sometimes it takes a little while.
DeleteJill just had a baby recently. It takes time to lose the extra weight from a pregnancy. Please give her a break.
DeleteJill just had Samuel in July.
DeleteJill just had her baby by c-section a couple of months ago. It is harder to lose the weight after a c-section.
DeleteShe just had a baby two months ago, that's just a post-baby pouch. Completely normal
DeleteJill is only about 9-10 weeks postpartum in this picture. Yes, she does still have the after delivery "pregnancy" tummy, and yes she had a C-section so her abdominal muscles needed to heal before any exercise routine. But, she does look more pregnant than post-delivery in this photo. I think it's the style of the dress...it just doesn't help the situation.
Deleteis that joy on the left wearing glasses looks like her if it is shes def quite a few months pregnant by the look of her
ReplyDeleteJoy, is the one, wearing glasses.
DeleteWho is the girl on the end that looks pregnant? I see Joy is wearing glasses, and is really showing. I think Jessa is the one wearing sandals. I see Jana(who looks lovely by the way, with her hair like that), by JD . Jinger is very noticeable. But where is Jill? Could that be Jill on the end?
ReplyDeleteYes that's Jill
DeleteIt's Jill. She hasn't bounced back from Samuel.
DeleteYes that's Jill on the end but where's Johanna who was a bridesmaid? And Trace Bates?
DeleteIt's Jill. I'm guessing she just hasn't lost all of her baby weight...
DeleteJill, is on the right edge, of the picture. Jill's second son, Samuel, was born on July 8th, so Jill is most likely still carrying some of her baby weight.
DeleteJill.
DeleteIt's Jill on the end. Unfortunately empire style dresses are not flattering when you are thick in the middle. Now it's only been 2 months post delivery, but that dress makes Jill look like she's still about 6/7 months pregnant. I hope she doesn't just settle into matronly "I'm a mommy" body. She's to young and to pretty for that.
DeleteThe one on the right looks pregnant. Is that Anna? or is that Jill? If it is Jill the girls' genes probably make them swell once they are pregnant or nursing. If it is Jill she still has a sizable post baby bump, almost as big as Joy's and could explain Joy's size this early in pregnancy. If it is Anna, she is doing quite for being about to give birth in a matter of days. Hope the best for all.
DeleteThat is Jill on the end!
DeleteAmazing photos! :-)
ReplyDeleteI can't quite tell who all the guys are......
ReplyDeletebut looks like one got cut off the end.....
Was it Trace Bates....and WHY ??
Because their shows can't intermingle ! Where is he ? ?
Can someone name the guys , if he is in picture ...😬❣
yes. also please name the girls.
DeleteOf course Joy has to make the photo about her pregnancy by sticking out her bump and holding it. Very immature and selfish! But then again, she's only 19, so what would you expect?
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's selfish for Joy to make the picture about her. And that's what happened because there are just about as many comments about her as there are Kendra.
DeleteUh, did you notice that everyone in that picture was goofing around? It wasn't just Joy.
DeleteHow is it selfish? She is happy to be pregnant. How exactly does it hurt anyone if she shows it off?
DeleteIf you'll take a moment to look you may notice that everyone was doing something silly in that photo.
DeleteWhy would this be immature or selfish? What's wrong with it?
DeleteAdvice to all expectant moms whether you are 19 or 40, when getting you pictures taken, never allow your belly to stick out no matter what! And never, ever touch your belly because people will unjustly accuse you of stealing the glory. Just ignore that photographer's cues!
DeleteWhat an unkind comment. You do see they were making goofy faces and poses, don't you?
DeleteI agree with Regina! Everyone knows ur expecting just stand there and smile and make a silly face
DeleteI think Regina was not being serious about her remarks.
DeleteIs Jessa hiding a bump behind those flowers? Baby #3???
ReplyDeleteKendra's dress is beautiful!!!!!!💕❤
ReplyDeleteVery happy for Joseph and Kendra!
ReplyDeleteLove, laughter, family, true friendships, and lots of babies to kiss. Those are the things that hold you during the storm of life. God bless them and protect them.
ReplyDeleteJoy-Anna is really going to regret her "eating for two" by the time she delivers this child. She would be 17 weeks approximately in this photo. Unless there are twins that "bump" is not all baby. A 17 week gestational baby is only 4.94 ounces...not pounds! Some good old fashioned cardio might be quite helpful:)
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. Some women use pregnancy as an excuse to eat whatever they want and be lazy. You only need 500 extra calories a day and exercise is highly recommended!
DeleteSome women may use pregnancy as an excuse to eat whatever they want and be lazy. I have also heard that pregnancy makes some women very tired, sick, and hungry. So there's always that to consider.
DeleteBeautiful wedding love Kendra dress she is glowing and Joe looks so happy
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful wedding! Joe and Kendra seem like a good match; I'm looking forward to getting to know her in the upcoming season.
ReplyDeleteKendra's dress is gorgeous. One of my favourites of the Duggar ladies!
ReplyDeleteyou guys, jill just had a baby 2 months ago. a big baby. i had my 3rd a week before Jill and i still have a bit of a tummy. give the woman a break!!
ReplyDeleteI love the first photo of Joseph and Kendra! Kendra looks stunning in her dress!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely cannot miss seeing Joy out of the group. She looks so sweet with her baby belly growing. I do wonder of the possibility of twins as quickly as she is growing. That would be wonderful (and chaotic), but truly so special to be able to see!
Joy is very,very pregnant !
ReplyDeleteLove her dress!
ReplyDeleteWhy don't the girls wear appropriate shoes for the wedding?? Jess's & Joy look ridiculous in those sandals!! Detracts from the dresses. Kendra looked beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThey're probably hoping some shoe company will realize the great opportunity for publicity and start gifting them free shoes for all their weddings and events. The Duggars never miss an opportunity for a great freebie!
DeleteJill, Jessa, and Joy Anna's shoes 😱😱😩😩👎👎👎
ReplyDeleteI thought Joy was Jill. Mind trip.
ReplyDeleteLooks like someone was cropped out of the picture on the right.
ReplyDeleteYes, someone who can't be on TV. It will be interesting to see how they have to edit this wedding so as not to show him.
DeleteJosh was one of them. I saw another photo with him in it in the groomsmen attire. There are others in addition to him. The numbers don't add up. Joe and Kendra were said to have 22 attendants.
DeleteThose who are asking if Jessa is pregnant again, if you have followed the Duggars for very long, you know that she doesn't announce pregnancies until the 2nd trimester, so why would you even ask? Also, those who are speculating about Jill being pregnant, Samuel is less than two months old. A lot of women have not lost all the baby belly weight by that time. Cut her a little slack! Lastly, it is so rude to speculate that Joy is father along than if she got pregnant after her wedding. That is just so rude to think and say. Women show differently. Of course she is proud of her baby bump. It's what she has waited for all of her life. Give her a break. She and Kendra are great friends, and I'm sure it doesn't bother Kendra one bit that Joy wants to make sure that her tummy is showing in this picture, especially since we can tell that it's a silly picture and not a formal one!
ReplyDeleteIt's very possible Jesss is in her second trimester. Henry is 7 months old. I'm not saying she is , but it's entirely possible she is 4-5 months along. Many siblings are 11 months apart.
DeleteSo what is their excuse for casual sandals and unhemmed pants. You can only pardon them so far.
DeleteThey don't need an excuse for their choice of attire. And they don't need a critical stranger's pardon for anything.
DeleteSeriously, why did Kendra not insist on the guys tailoring their pants. Totally unacceptable.
ReplyDeleteUnacceptable to who? You? This is Kendra's wedding, not yours, not mine. So if it's acceptable to her, why do you care?
DeleteThey aired the wedding on TV for money. Yes, they have asked the viewers to make it their business.
DeleteThat's silly. It's still not our "business" how they choose to dress at their wedding. If it were our business, we'd have some say in how they live their lives, but we don't. They're free to make their own choices; our choice is whether to watch them or not.
DeleteThe bridesmaid's dresses look like they were China online-ordered dresses, which nothing wrong with that to save money. But, that being said, those types of dresses have inferior fabric (thin, filmsy) and usually do not have a flattering cut/drape.Therefore, enough about the baby bumps! If you look closely, even the little girls look like their bellies are bigger than normal! The seamline hits in an odd place across the middle: not empire and not at the waist. A very pretty wedding nonetheless and people just need to stop the pregnancy mania!! Who really cares?
ReplyDeleteLooks like none of the guys had their pants hemmed, except for the one guy that is third from the left. The pants look extremely long, it's ridiculous!!!!!
ReplyDeleteEveryone looks stunning. That is what matters. Who cares?
DeleteI wondered if they just guessed on the inseams at the tuxedo shop and never measured! Either that, or the suits were all borrowed from another wedding?
DeleteI agree. Also, the Duggars have favored the brown shoes in the weddings and the girls in thongs or sandals. To me it would have looked so much more elegant with black shoes that were dressier. More appropriate for a wedding and maybe not any more expensive. For the most part, it looks pretty.
DeleteOnly Jinger and Jana have appropriate footwear in this wedding. I'm not a fan of the brown shoes for the guys but at least the style is appropriate. Also I can't see what Kendra's sister choose. It is completely inappropriate for Joy, Jessa and Jill to wear those awful shoes. It's one thing to let your bridesmaids choose their own footwear. I did, but I also provided stipulations such as they must be a dress shoe with at least a one inch heal. This is a wedding not a barbecue picnic, dress appropriately.
ReplyDeleteKendra's dress is beautiful and I like the color scheme of the groom's and groomsmen's suits. But those bouquets... yikes.
ReplyDeleteLooks like those bouquets started out OK, but then they all grabbed branches off a bush outside the church.
DeleteI like the relaxed quality of the goofy picture but holy moly are the duggar boys short or are those pants really long? They all have tons of fabric puddling around their shoes
ReplyDeleteIt was their wedding!! Get over the untailored pants and shoes, for goodness sakes! There are so many more important things in this world to argue about or care about. The way somebody dresses for their OWN wedding should not be one of them. How materialistic this world is. Pathetic people!!
ReplyDeleteI think it's more that in their religious circle, this is kind of Kendra's big day that's she's been dreaming of and planning for like forever. She clearly spent a lot of time and attention on her dress, Bridesmaid dresses, Joe's attire and the groomsmen, the flowers, the decor theme, the cake, and all the other details. So, things like the ultra-casual shoes that sort of undermine the fancier lace dresses and the pools of fabric bagging around the guys' ankles kind of detract from that somewhat. I think some posters are expressing surprise that no one (wedding planner or one of the married ladies) clued Kendra in on that. My guess is that the wedding planning itself was rather rushed and the pants were rentals (thus, no alterations or maybe time to coordinate and execute individual alterations). the truth is that it does visually detract from the "stylishness" of the wedding, but it in no way detracts from the marriage. :)
DeleteSo happy for them!! Such a beautiful ceremony
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wedding!! God bless them😊
ReplyDeleteJoy is gaining too much weight this early on in her pregnancy. Women who gain too much weight during pregnancy are more prone to gestational diabetes, a dangerous condition in which your body is unable to produce enough insulin to balance glucose levels in your blood.
