According to the People Magazine article about their wedding, Jason and Maddie "met" via social media in December 2023 and made their relationship public about five months later. Jason proposed on the beach on August 24th. Thirteen of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's 19 children are now married. Since 2014, there have only been four years (2015, 2019, 2020, and 2023) in which the Duggar family did not have a wedding. So far, the most weddings they have had in one year has been two.

Now that Jana Duggar is Mrs. Stephen Wissmann, let's look back at the couple's relationship. After dating for a short time a few years ago, Jana and Stephen went their separate ways. They each continued to live where they grew up, close to their (much larger than average) families. According to People Magazine, Jana started nursing school last year.
Then in early 2024, Stephen reached back out to Jana in the form of a handwritten letter. They rekindled their friendship, and Jana says she quickly fell in love with him. The engagement followed on June 15th, and the wedding took place exactly two months later at a beautiful venue (The Grand at Willow Springs) near her family's Northwest Arkansas home. The couple will start their new live together in Nebraska.
Jana just uploaded a video to YouTube that shows her making a surprise visit to Stephen while they were dating. Johannah Duggar, 18, and Jennifer Duggar, 16, went along to chaperone and help their sister drive through the night.
