Waller update:

Poor baby looks very unfortunate. Davia managed to grow out of it, so hopefully, this little does, too.

[bigskygirl]

The picture gives me the creeps! He looks like a serial killer, and she looks like she would blindly follow him as he sets out on a killing spree. I do not know who would give me more nightmares-the guy in the picture, Josh the Cheater Molester or Dwerp Boy.

Davia still does not look impressed.

I don't know...She sort of looks like one of those Victorian era porcelain dolls with the little teeth. Which I'm sure were designed to be pretty, but generally have at least a mildly disquieting, if not outright creepy sort of presence.

[riverblue22]

I knew a girl in school whose face was very adult and old looking.  She just didn't look like a kid.  Now that she is 68 she looks just the same as she did as a child.  And she looks great!  I'm reminded of that with David and Priscilla's two youngest.

priscilla looks pregnant again, too.

[dargosmydaddy]

I want Priscilla to have another boy next so we can see if they are going with an every other P-D initial theme, or whether all the boys will be P's and all the girls D's.

I think so too.

Back to the Bates. Patiently waiting for wedding pictures. 

[Sew Sumi]

Some of the guys at the BoRi(ng) wedding. 

 

[SMama]

I know, I thought by now one of our many super sleuths would have posted pics. I'm glad you are patient, but it is not one of my virtues. Actually I have no virtues.

 

ETA: OOPS, thanks @Sew Sumi. Is that Evan next to Nathan? There is something off about that guy. His "We love you Elsa!" was hillarous though.

[Sew Sumi]

Yeah, I think that's Fundie Zoolander.

So now that the Duggars are super toxic People has moved on to the so far scandal free Bates family? She walked down the aisle to A Thousand years, a song she must have heard at Alyssa's house (kidding). Good for Tori for doing something a bit different.

Sorry, it would not let me upload the pic, like above from FJ.

[Fuzzysox]

Erin looks like the Matron of Honor.

Purple dresses, meh.

Tori looks pretty. I like her dress and hair so far.

[Lunera]

Her dress is beautiful and I like her hair

[Sew Sumi]

I'm pretty sure that Carlin was MOH. I want to say that Kelly divulged that.

That baby looks like what I imagine Dudley Dursley looked like as a child. 

[Fuzzysox]

Tori's dress was made by Ms. Renee. http://people.com/tv/bringing-up-bates-tori-bates-marries-bobby-smith/

[Sew Sumi]

A closer look at Tori's dress. At least it looks like one dress, not five like Joy's.

 

[Fuzzysox]

Tori looks polished in her modern conservative dress unlike the fugly rag that Jill Duggar wore.

[SMama]

I think she looks lovely and I am NOT a wedding person. I wonder if Josie (the sister not the licker) did the hair and makeup, it's nice she does not look like Rapunzel.  People reported all Duggars were at the wedding except Jinger. I doubt they did not attend because Jeremy needed to tend to his congregation.  Interesting if JinJer are not a permanent part of the herd like the other married kidults. They still have the same awful beliefs but there seems to be more independence.

I stand corrected. The People article confirms that Tori's dress IS in fact a mish-mash of several dresses. 

[Sew Sumi]

Here's a shot of the back where you can tell the dress was originally sleveless. Kind of NIKE! there around the right thigh though, although there's obviously a lace overlay.

I really like the bottom, but the top is too busy for my taste. 

[Sew Sumi]

Tori looks just like Gail Simmons in that group shot. 

Good call. I see it since her tendrils are about the length of Gail's hair. 

[Lunera]

It looks like the first fitted dress Joy tried on but with sleeves. I love the sleeves but they make the dress too busy.

[Sew Sumi]

[pinkelephant3]

She looks a lot like a brunette Erin in that pic 

[Marigold]

I love the purple. 

Like the hair overall but don't like the one braid going down her head.  Looks weird in pictures.

I was thinking she looked just like her mom.

[lianau]

Every time I see one of those fundie wedding pictures I want to congratulate them on the  sex .

I am unfortunately addicted to crime TV so I will keep my eyes peeled for them on Snapped: Killer Couples. 

Is Priss pregnant again? i don't follow these two ever since their hair-raising wedding where she looked terrified and we later learned that she felt the marriage was akin to being nailed to the cross (I think?). It hurts to think of people living with that mindset.

thought this, exactly.

[Sew Sumi]

A good look at the bridesmaids dress featuring Carlin and Fundie Zoolander.

[Arwen Evenstar]

I like the bridesmaids dresses this time around. Much classier than the schmattes Jill and Jessa’s wedding parties were forced to wear.

[ginger90]

Going with long looks so much better than adding length.

[riverblue22]

I just can't see Carlin with that guy.

[Sew Sumi]

There's a pic of Joy if you scroll through. At least her top isn't clinging to her.

Her damn hand. Why can’t she just stand there? Stripes? Oh goodness.

[Sew Sumi]

Yeah, I picked out the only positive. 

[madpsych78]

Joy really looks like Jill in that pic.

[lookeyloo]

Carlin's boyfriend looks like the boy version of Tori's new husband.  He will grow up though. Speaking from experience mr lookeyloo is 12 years younger than I am.  We are married almost 36 years.  So it can work.  And PS He did work til he retired, haha.

[Sew Sumi]

Fundie Zoolander is only a year younger than Bobby. Of course, like a lot of fundie guys, he projects like he's 40. They're either middle aged men like the Duggar males (sans Smuggar), or Peter Pans like Lawson and Evan.

I don't see it either. She could do so much better. He seems too full of himself not humble.

[DangerousMinds]

So does she though.

[Sew Sumi]

True. They are doubly obnoxious when they're together. 

[Lunera]

More pictures

[Sew Sumi]

So she did have a train. It wasn't evident in any of the other pictures.

eta: what are BoRi untying while Lawson is warbling? I guess her fumbling around there was what she was referring to when she said she'd "messed it all up."

They are braiding something (ribbons?).  Three ribbons, which signify 1)the bride 2)the groom 3)God.  The song he was singing said something about the 3 of them together were stronger than the bride and/or groom are apart.
