So is Gil a for reals minister or is this one of those JB-like "You may now impregnate my daughter" announcements?

I'm actually not sure, I haven't heard on the show that he was marrying them or anything so probably a JimBoob type announcement.

He married Alyssa and her husband didn't he?

From what I can see of Michael's dress, it looks very "her." I can't wait to see it for real!

I'm 100% willing to give Jessa a pass on her outfit. It's very hot and she's very pregnant. I've never been pregnant myself, but I've heard that it's terrible in the summer. It's not a dress I'd pick for myself, but she looks fine. As long as Ben isn't pulling a Josh and wearing jeans, I think they're probably okay.

Looks like a good kiss :D And not a dramatic dip-kiss like we've seen at other fundie weddings. Not being harsh here, but why do so many fundies do a dramatic dip for the first kiss? They must be nervous already, and to suddenly be grabbed and forcefully dipped like that in front of a huge crowd sounds kinda terrifying to me. Although that might be why they do it... a simple peck on the lips isn't enough, it has to be a full-on display.

And I love Erin's dress. I think the design is what all the bridesmaids wore. It's a classy style, and different to what the bridesmaids at the previous weddings wore. When I first saw they were going to be wearing brown I thought it meant proper chocolate/poo brown, but it seems to be more of a mocha/coffee colour. Not at all like Alyssa's theme. (I liked the brightness of it, especially compared to the dull navy worn at Smuggar's crapfest, but... it was a bit clash-y.)

I loooove her lacy flats. If I hadn't been almost a foot shorter than my DH I would have loved to wear those. But I needed a 3 inch wedge so he wouldn't have to bend down to kiss me....

OK, I see your points about Jessa's dress, but still think it's a little too t-shirty.

Is this David Rodrigues in the background here? instagram.com/p/6aqkWBENAg/

I have a short SO- like, my height short. I wouldn't want to stoop down to kiss him :lol: I always envisioned myself wearing heels, but I'm really liking those flats.

Inst agraz is for people who like shabby chic, not for shabby people who think they are chic.

(I am not fun y, I don't even know why I try)

His church denomination (non-denominational in evangelical terms is totally a denomination of its own!) probably has quite a relaxed attitude towards lay ministry. It'd imagine he's legally ordained by the state/government but performs the wedding as a lay minister.

American weddings generally seem to be shorter than European ones - in the UK weddings start at midday-ish and last well into the night usually, with a sit-down meal with speeches after the ceremony and then often a buffet when the dancing starts in the evening. There is normally a Champagne/sparkling wine toast, wine with the sit-down meal and then a cash bar in the evening - a cash bar is normal and not considered rude, since Brits are heavy drinkers and a free bar would bankrupt people! This is also why an evening-only invitation in the UK is normal and not considered rude, a lot of people would rather just go to the party and skip the speeches etc.

Jill R. is posting pictures on her FB page.

https://www.facebook.com/rodriguesfamil ... us?fref=ts

Of course she got a pic with Michelle AND made it her profile picture. :roll:

I'm sure she was shopping her eldest girl around with all the eligible Bates and Duggar bachelors. Jill wants to be in that crew sooo bad

And wrote Michaela Bates Wedding - August 15, 2015 in both the caption of the photo AND as a comment on her own photo. Anything to be in the spotlight.

Considering the photogenic Bates and Duggar daughters, you would think Jill R would take the hint and ease off on her daughters' makeup a little. And how long do you think it took after the ceremony for her to make a beeline to the Duggar clan?

Not liking that dress at all! It looks like she put a strapless bra or bikini top over a perfectly fine dress. Nor do I like her hair/veil. Basically I think she looks like a hot mess.

I hope she's happy with her look.

I hope she put her foot in her mouth and uncomfortably referenced their recent troubles...(smile). :lol:
