  4. Does anyoneknow why Josiah was not featured at all in the show last night. I didn't see him once on film and or in the interviews. He was at the wedding why didn't they show him?

  7. The title of the post is misleading as it says we'll see pictures of the "First Look" yet all we see are pictures of them getting ready on the day of the wedding.

  8. I do wish the Duggar girls would stop using the word "like" so much...it makes them sound like the Kardashians.

  10. Loved watching Jill & Derrick's wedding episode last night! Two comments: I did not see Josiah at all and he was never interviewed at all in this episode. Why was that? I see in one of the pictures above that Josiah was there. Also, I realize that Derrick's father is deceased and his mother Kathy, God Bless her and her fight with cancer, was and should have been a very important party of the wedding, but I felt that Derricks Step-father should have been shown more respect and not just be portrayed as Miss Kathy's caretaker. Maybe he was, but the film editor didn't get that in the final cut.

  18. So, let me get this straight, it's not okay to wear pants, but it's okay to wear tons of makeup??? Isn't that a double standard??

  20. Love the pictures and Congrats to Jill and Derick. One question - it looks like Michelle's dress is the same one worn by Kelly Bates at her daughter Alyssa's wedding. Is this so? Great way to save money and wonderful to have friends share like that.

    1. Not the exact dress as Michelle said she got it off the clearance rack.

  21. I was wondering why they didn't have the people from Fresh hair or some pros do the girls or at least Jill's hair and makeup? While Jill is so pretty, this was not the best look for her hair that we have seen. Just appears not much effort was put into hair and makeup. Is that Erin Bates Paine doing looks like Jinger's makeup? She should have done Jill's. Also did she paly the piano during the wedding?

  23. Beautiful family and pictures. Congratulations Jill & Derick!

  24. I anxiously awaited the wedding all season! I thoroughly enjoyed watching. I do have a question, Jill. I understand you breaking the tradition not to see Derik on the wedding day. I often hear men say the moment they see their bride walking down the aisle in the dress for the first time, is breathtaking and memorable. After you put your dress on, why didn't you wait until you went down the aisle to allow Derik to see you in your gown. As with the first kiss, the first view of the bride in her dress is an experience never to be forgotten. I do wish you both well in your marriage and with the upcoming birth of your precious son.

  25. Why wasn't Josiah apart of this season? I saw him once when Josh and Anna was greeted at the house when they arrived for Jill's wedding.

  26. Jill looked so beautiful. They both looked happy are in love. The wedding was beautiful also. Love the colors they chose. The girls dresses were very pretty. I liked the fact they were simple. Simple but elegant. The little ones white dresses with flowers in their hair was adorable and the signs were cute. Lovely wedding. Congrats to them. Now they are going to Mommie and Daddy. Yea for them

  27. I enjoyed watching the wedding so much ! Thank you for sharing and God Bless ! I can't help but notice, isn't Michele's dress the same dress Mrs. Bates wore to her daughter's wedding only longer ? Not that it matters, just seems appropriate two close friends would choose the same dress :) Everyone looked beautiful !

    1. I was wondering the same thing so i went to the Bates site and looked up the pics of Alyssas wedding photos and it looks like its the exact same dress but altered and a different undershirt. I dont see anything wrong with copying or borrowing the same dress.Michelle probably really liked it.It lookwd beautiful on both of them

  31. I really like all the colors from what they picked for the wedding. I think it is very beautiful and simple. God bless on your marriage. Jeremiah 29.11. In Christ Love, Frances

  32. I loved that Jessa fixed Jills hair, how sweet, she is so talented with doing hair and make-up.I said it once before, that Jessa needs to become a licenced cosmotolgist and do hair and make-up in a little shop from her home, she has lots of friends and family that would keep her busy as well as an extra income.She could take online classes.Just a thought.:-)

  33. Amazing photos!!! And everyone looks gorgeous. I absolutely love Jill's wedding dress. Can I have duplicate? lol :) Can't wait to see the rest. Sad I couldn't be there.

  39. Was there something special about Jill's necklace? It was lovely, and I just wondered if it had some significance, like family jewelry or something like that.

  40. I could't see the wedding yet, because I am not living in the U.S. but in Europe. So I have a question: It seems that Michelle is wearing the same dress as Kelly Bates on Zachs and Alyssas Wedding. Is this right?

    ReplyDelete
  41. Why wasn't the girls from the salon from the episode leading up to the wedding not there to do the great styles and looks

  42. It seems the Duggars are activity people, everything is an activity and they have fun doing most.

    Hi Anonymous 35,

    The Bates were at the wedding, and so was Anna's sister Priscilla. We did not see the rest of Anna's family at the ceremony, reception, or at the Duggars' house that evening.
