When the bride and groom walk down the aisle together it is the first time the go together as man and wife, and it is a lovely moment. At Jingers wedding Derick made a total spectacle of himself by having to run round to the aisle grab and dip Jill, then walk her out leaving the poor grooms man standing not knowing what to do. It smacks of a dominance ritual also, this is my woman sort of thin. Very tacky at any wedding in my opinion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-72784936243469941382017-05-30T09:27:56.656-05:002017-05-30T09:27:56.656-05:00Oh please, their spouses grabbing and dipping them...Oh please, their spouses grabbing and dipping them on the way out of the church only takes a few seconds. It certainly isn't some big attention grabbing moment. How exciting is it to watch people leave the church at the end of the ceremony? It doesn't hurt for them to do something different. It doesn't take away from the ceremony at all since it is over at that point.

How very awkward. Just as you're not supposed to upstage the bride at a wedding by wearing white as a guest, imagine someone proposing. It just upstages the couple. Joe should have waited. That said, I do congratulate him and Kendra. They look like a fine couple well suited to one another. The Duggars must be doing something right: Look at all the happy marriages in that family.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428508300040240690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-8353761545304249882017-05-29T15:08:24.503-05:002017-05-29T15:08:24.503-05:00He proposed at their wedding?

Look at Joys engagement. Very simple. I am thankful that my engagement was private and simple. Poor Kendra can't even recognize the engagement as her and Joseph's day. I think it should have been planned on a separate day so that it could have just been for them to celebrate, with each other and close family/friends.

It was amazing and i loved having all of my loved ones there to share our moment. My sister announced she was expecting her first child the same night. It didnt steal my moment in any way. The whole evening wad amazing and i wouldn't trade it for anything. We've been married almost 17 years, my thoughts have never changed. .

Maybe Joy and Austin don't care. This isn't a family where kids expect undivided attention. This is a family that shares most moments with others- including Duggar fans.
