I think it would be fun to bring this back for at least one more season as “Sister wives are doing it for themselves” and cut out the two barnacles.

Unfortunately one of the barnacles is the "star" of his show, so he isn't going anywhere. Another season more Kootie 🤮

Yup, that was me who said that.

(Brought over here from the live chat, which I always miss!)

ETA:

I just wanted to ask if anyone knows if they had a honeymoon and where they went if so.

I'm just starting this epi and I'm so happy that not only did Christine find real happiness after ditching the wet noodle, but also that the OG kids, Christine and Janelle are all forever family. Even Douchie McNoodlehead could not kill their bond. Good for them!

One nitpicky thing though, why the hell can't David speak proper English?!? "When she come walkin' down',, and "But when I seen you". WTF?!? It's "when she CAME walking down" and "When I SAW you". Jesus H Christ.

LOL, I hear you!  The way he speaks reminds me of some of the Amish I watched on other reality shows.  In their case, though, they only get an 8th grade education.  What's his excuse?

Was Logan there?  I didn't see him and forgive me if this was discussed somewhere else and I missed it.

You can briefly see him on part 1 on the boat ride and in the group photo with all the 12 Brown kids.

The PDA was a bit much, but everyone there seemed happy.  The two families seemed pleased in each other’s company,  

I did not see Savanah in the bride’s dressing room even though Maddie was definitely in there.  Therefore I was pleased to see Christine grab her and get her on the dance floor during the larger mother  daughter dance. Sometimes I feel she gets left out because she is so much younger than Aspen, MyKelti, Maddie and Logan’s Michelle.

I did not catch a glimpse of Leon at the wedding.  Saw Them on the boat but not at the actual wedding.  Don't recall seeing Garrison at the wedding, either.  I didn't pause on what looked to be an entire family photo to see if I could spot them so maybe they were there.

Still wonder why Gwen wasn't there.  School commitments sound like a lame reason to me, but that's just me.

It might be mean of me but I would not feel bad for Kody at all if seeing Caleb in these celebrations, or anything else related to Christine, is like a knife to the kidneys to him.

Christine glowed—despite the dress, but both she and David were happy! I did blush every time she kissed David. Full tongue and all! It  was giving me “teens making out in the backseat of a car” vibes, but good for her! Yes, she was a little inebriated! They looked like they all had a blast!

I liked how she mentioned her 13 kids. Her 6, Janelle’s 6, and Leon.  So, NONE of Robyn’s. 
Mykelti—huuuge attention seeker. 

I fast forwarded through parts and didn't see this.  Can you please tell me when she mentioned the kids?  Like, during what part of the day?  Thanks!

I'm thinking it's a combo of school commitments (organic chemistry midterm is nothing to sneeze at) plus knowing Paedon would be there. Of course Christine wanted her there but she knew in advance and I'm sure Gwen and her mom talked it out. I'm sorry Gwen missed what was a really fun family event including her grandparents being there.

I know Leon was there. Can anyone tell what brief scenes I can see them in (besides the group photo scene and the boat ride scene)

I have seen Leon in photos so I know they were there, and I think I spotted Logan in a white shirt during the reception.  I didn't spot Garrison but I think I saw him in pictures, too.  It could be that those three simply don't want to be filmed at all anymore, so they were edited out of the show.

It makes me think that we won't see Logan's wedding at all on SW.  If not, good for him, bummer for us. :)

Logan, Michelle, Leon, and Audrey don't want to be on the show at all, so I'm sure they avoided the cameras. They were all definitely on the boat ride on the day of the rehearsal. I'm sure they were at the wedding.

At the wedding reception, I did see Leon in a couple of brief flashes, dancing near Christine. You could see Garrison behind Janelle and some attractive brunette woman, during the lap dance scene. (I still can't get over that Christine did that in front of -- well, in front of anyone -- her whole family and the worldwide television audience.)

Here are pictures of my TV screen, that I took with my very old phone. The sun was coming in the window and hitting the TV (which needs to be dusted). Sorry for the quality. I also had to convert them to jpegs, and reduce the quality, so that they wouldn't be too large to post here.

Leon is in the white/light shirt with the darker spots, to our left of Mykelti, who is dancing in the center in a rust colored dress.

Here's Garrison. Sorry for the sunspot (and possible smudge on Garrison's mouth).

You can see all 12 of the OG13 kids who attended (Gwendlyn did not) in the family photo (Christine + kids) in this Today Show article on the wedding.

I thought it was lovely to see the children from both sides happy and trying to make connections with each other. No reality show wedding drama but just two people wanting to share a life with each other and the people they love.

Because I'm a sap I do hope after some years and softening of feelings that Meri can be included in the group as well. 

I agree. I think it would be awkward for Leon as well, knowing that among the OG's, their Mom isn't included.

My late FIL would say, "we was" instead of we were.  I got used to it!

Lovely wedding!  Christine's girls all looked beautiful without upstaging the bride.  Her neckline was a bit low, but she still looked lovely.

Christine's dress looked better at a distance being filmed than in the close up stills.  It was still not the best style or fit, but she was happy.

I loved David's mother's dress.  I'm glad she was happy to wear sparkle.

I'm a huge nerd about mechanics in written English, but spoken dialects are a different story. My linguistics professor would say that it is impossible for native speakers to say something wrong -- if it feels right to them, then it's correct in their dialect.

This is not a well educated group of adults. Sounds like maybe David didn't grow up middle class.

The Browns don't speak proper English either (neither vocabulary nor grammar, without even getting into issues of elocution).  They all like to throw around big words and idioms  incorrectly.

Oh, goodness, please don't go have a re-watch just for me.

I fast forwarded during their vows (as I was already teary), through some of the PDA moments, and through the lap dance.

Thank you everyone who posted confirmation of Leon (I had seen them on the boat the day before) and Garrison.  Appreciate it!

On another note, "I seen" and "should of" will never be correct to my ears.  What kind of primary schools did people go to where they learned that "should of" is correct??  Gah!

Can I say " 'Your' is both singular and plural.  If you are referring to something that belongs to more than one person, you still say 'your'.  Not 'you guyses' ". Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Ya know, I am also gonna chime in to say how healing this episode felt.  I also think the dress was...meh.  Christine is really pretty and i think something less formal, more "flowy" would have been a better fit for her body and personality, but...i get that she really wanted the whole real wedding dress thing that she didn't get with awful Kody.

And the dress kinda symbolized the feel of the entire event.  Nothing was perfect...and yet...everything was as they wanted it...so...perfect.

It certainly wasn't polish, but it was perfect.

It felt real.  It felt like watching real families coming together.

Haha.  Suck it Kody! ;)

Also in attendance was Ysabel's boyfriend. Unlike Audrey, Leon, Hunter's Audrey, Michelle, Logan, his face was blurred out in the very brief shots he was in. I completely understand why some family members choose not to be on camera, and I respect them for it. 

I also respect Gwen's choice not to attend, for whatever personal reasons. This board has been pretty respectful of her choice as well, which is refreshing.

It’s country. I am from a northeast rural yankee farmer background (eastern New York State) and my parents and their friends talked like that among one another.

That's a really interesting way to look at linguistics. And yet, why do we have so much focus on learning proper grammar in school?

I don't think there is a lot of emphasis on this any more. But the reason we ought to emphasize it is that informal dialects work great inside of communities, but poorly across communities. It's a positive thing to have a standardized version of a language that people from all regions can speak and understand. This is essential in a written language. It's inevitable, though, that some nonstandard versions will be stigmatized (like New Jersey=violent mobster or Appalachian=ignorant hayseed).

David Woolley does drywall, so his nonstandard grammar won't hurt his business. But if he tried to sell luxury real estate, he would hit a wall. If you want kids to have the freedom to do any job in any region, they need to speak/write the standard dialect in addition to whatever they speak at home.

Did it look to anyone else like Mrs. Woolley might have been wearing the Temple garment (Mormon underwear) under her dress? There was a distinctive white shirt outline underneath the navy lace at the top of her dress, and it detracted from her otherwise elegant look.

If so, I don't fault her for following her religion. I just wish someone in her family had told her to have the top of the dress lined, so the garment wouldn't show through the lace.

Her dress was made like my last MOB dress where the actual lining ends just above the bust line leaving the top of the bodice and sleeves open lace.

ITA with all the comments of love and well wishes for Christine and David. I had to grab a tissue. Someone mentioned that it was a healing moment, too. It was great hearing the OG kids talk about how wonderful it was to have the family come together again and be the family they are. (without Kody trying to crush everyone's happiness)

I also heard genuine emotional happiness that David's family is like the other half of their family they didn't know they had. I forgot how it was stated. David's family was out-partying them, lol. I loved that. Everyone is happy, celebrating their union. I would like to see at least another season of this show how both families are blending. (without the tumor named Kody)

Janelle looked *stunning* and I loved her little dig about Christine and David watching their grandkids from the porch. That will be their life and with such a huge family, their place will be buzzing with activity. Suck it, Crybrows.

I laughed so hard over that! Thanks Janelle! 

Christine got to dance with her dad. Her mom was there. I also liked that Christine asked that all the women come up and dance together. Awesome that everyone was doing a flash mob moment. Christine recognized it and explained it to David. Such a sincere, sweet moment that caught Christine by surprise. 

Mykelti needs to stop sucking all the air out of the room. Put your obnoxious instigator self away.
