I think we all forgot about this episode ...

Kendra calling them mommy and daddy is super creepy! It just shows how young and immature she is. 

[TigerLily20]

For whatever reason I found it funny when Kendra was wondering if she had the fake eyelashes.....just seemed so out of place to me, and I feel bad for the actual wedding planner and these flowers....

[mythoughtis]

Mommy and Daddy are regional names. I’ve seen 50 year olds call their Dad Daddy.  Me, personally, I don’t think  I ever used those names once I got in grade school.

Why wasn’t the episode title Joseph and KENDRA’s wedding rather than Joseph's’ wedding? 

I liked Joseph writing  notes.

Oh, MEchelle.  Listen to this bitch, trying to sound like an actual mother, advising her son.  Ugh.  It would make more sense to have Grandma Duggar or even Jana doing this.

Since when do you do a bridesmaid first look picture?

She sounded like she blew a fuse in her brain. "Never go to, uh at night, you know never go to sleep, uh" I was yelling "DON'T LET THE SUN GO DOWN ON YOUR WRATH YOU IDIOT!!" or hell, how about don't go to bed pissed off. Jim Bob's advice, respect her, honor her. Oh yeah, don't get busted with whores.

[flyingdi]

I can say with all sincerity, out of all the Duggars and Duggar adjacent,  Joe and Kendra seem like very pleasant people.  Exciting?  No, but very pleasant.

My 50 + year old sister in law still refers to her mother as "mommy".  I think it's creepy.  My mother would look at me side ways if I still did that at my age.

[pinkelephant3]

Why do they start praying at birth for their newborn child to find a husband or wife that's super creepy. Also kendras laugh or giggle is super annoying. This is why I never watch this damn show.

Yeah they're super boring but I wish them well. They seem really young to be married, yet not in a depressing way like with Joy. I hope they have a nice life and never have their own episode again. 

[VioletNevermind]

Okay, we still have 10 minutes left and I am very finished with the giggles every two minutes.  May the good Lord lay it on her heart to fix that goddamn laugh. 

[JocelynCavanaugh]

I was annoyed when Pastor Caldwell started with the "numbers" on raising Kendra, but the part where he prayed for God to make her more like her mother, then more like Him, got me good. I know a lot of people on here despise religion, especially this branch, but that was a sincere and lovely wish.

[flyingdi]

Coming next fall to TLC "Reverend Caldwell-Preacher/Comedian"

Sorry I meant Pastor.  Baptists aren't called Reverend are they?

Now I know why JimBob is marrying off his kids so rapidly after post-Josh scandal. It's because these wedding episodes are the only time he and Michelle get so much face time and opportunity to pontificate to the audience again. It's all about them in these episodes and a chance to show off the younger kids since they don't have their old show.

Kendra's laugh is annoying.  And I started to fast forward when her dad started talking forever and it felt like a boring type talk I used to hear at church myself!

[Annb67]

With all of pastor caldwell's religious BS I MIGHT have teared up as he gave his speech. I dont know what the hell is wrong with me.

[Gemma Violet]

I hate cake-smooshing in the face of one's spouse.  It just seems so disrespectful.

Pastor Caldwell and his wife are way more relaxed and comfortable with Kendra than Jim Bob and Michelle are with any of their kids.

[woodscommaelle]

That dress looked like three parts that did not at all go together. I kind of liked it. 

Those bouquets, however, were hideous.

Why do they always pull elaborate pranks at the boys weddings but not at the girls?

[Spencer Hastings]

I call my parents Mommy and Daddy at 30 years old.  Anything else would feel weird and insincere.  It's definitely a preference/what feels right.  They'd be very confused if I reverted to anything else.

That being said, Kendra is so precious.  She seems like she'd be a lot to handle in big doses because she's just so sweet, but she seems very sincere and content with the world around her. 

[mythoughtis]

Pastor Caldwell’s pre wedding speech should have been done at the reception.  First time I’ve ever heard a father give a pre wedding speech. However, he is funny.  I noticed he only had two sentences of advice for Kendra and whole lot of warnings for Joe.  What the heck is all this goofiness with the ring though. This is their one and only wedding. 

So, no ‘obey’ and no promise to have a million children.  Butterfly kisses during the two shall become 1 candle lighting?

[ThinkerBell]

I felt badly for Joe, when he nervously said "wing" instead of ring. I felt even worse for him when he officially committed himself to a lifetime of Kendra's incessant giggling.

I think it's just horrific. It's not funny, cute or original. It's a freaking wedding not a damn circus.

[woodscommaelle]

Kendra's sister looks like one of the middle Bates girls.

[Annb67]

And another thing...look they seem like sweet, nice kids; but all they talked about was that damn kiss. I've waited my whole life for this kiss, best kiss ever...

Let me tell you kids something, sex is good but there comes a time when you had better have a hell of  a lot more going for you than sex. This is the problem i have with this whole waiting until marriage crap. Josh and Anna, exhibit A.

[mjstrick]

My only thought is...they spent all that time putting makeup on him.  Could they not find a comb for that question mark on top of his head?

So much to snark about in this episode...

1- No way was Joy only 3 1/2 months pregnant unless there are multiple babies in there.
2- Kendra's laugh is REALLY annoying

3- All the excitement over their first kiss...No way are they ready for the wedding night.
4-Could her dad really not memorize his "Speech"? I found pulling out his phone tacky....

[yogi2014L]

I was legitimately distracted by how young and attractive Kendra's parents are lol

I truly wish the best for Joseph and Kendra. I hope Joseph is as nice IRL as he seems on TV

[mjstrick]

And.  This talk of first kiss always makes me laugh.  Do we all really think that's what they're soooo excited for?  First kiss 6 pm.  First sex.  8 pm.  Seriously.  

[sheshark]

Joy went from a pretty (although messy) bride to a frump in 3 1/2 months.  Why the glasses, Joy.  And the awful shoes on everyone except Kendra, as well as Jana and Jinger.  Those two looked like they were from another place entirely, just so gorgeous.

[Chicklet]

I hope that Joseph doesn't smother Kendra after 3 months of that giggle. Still waters run deep and all that BS.

[Spencer Hastings]

Also, I thought that Joe leaving notes for each of his siblings was a really sweet (albeit a little dramatic) idea.  I can't snark on them because they both seem so sweet.

She was a total frump on the wedding day to be fair. 

And yeah....she looks really big for 3.5 months....I'm not buying it. Go Joy! haha

 

And jeebus TLC STOP TRYING TO MAKE BOOB AND MECHELLE HAPPEN. ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

Joe done with first sex by 8:02 pm. Off to the prayer closet.

Nope. No way she was in her first trimester. Joy, try girl, make a small effort for the love of Pete.

Oops one more thing. Justin is my hero (is that the kid's name?) Anywho...he says we are going to miss Joe, but not really he'll be right next door. Lol!!

[Mrs. P.]

Did anyone else think that Joy was holding her bouquet in a strategic place every chance she got?

[woodscommaelle]

Cindy seemed like she had a little crush on the cute twin who knows how to make flower decorations.

[Whyyouneedaname]

Jana telling Joe she needed to touch him up a bit, would have been such a motherly moment for a mom to sorta baby her son for the last time before he's married off, presumably an adult man, however it lsadly looked fitting for Jana to do this.

YES!! I'm just saying she's probably going to have a "preemie"

Why did Joe need makeup? Was there some sort of injury?

He said he got hit in the face with a broomball or something a few days earlier.

Jana might be the only one who legitimately cares.

[Gemma Violet]

I never paid much attention to the guys in the family, but I think Jason is really cute and looks like Kris Allen of American Idol.

Jana  might be the only one who legitimately cares.

The only time I saw Michelle with Joe was during the ‘advice to the groom’ talk. She was at the church early on because we saw Kendra greet her. Yet, we never saw her visit the Bride to say’welcome to the family’, or  ‘ are you nervous’?  

Jana appeared to be helping out the entire day.

Food was served.  Actual hot food at a wedding, put on by a preacher/mechanic.  Not potato chips and pickles from a tv stah/real estate mogul.

One of them reminds me of Anthony Michael Hall in Sixteen Candles. I cannot tell the brothers apart. But the oldest one who isn’t Josh is checked the fuck out of his family (at least in some scenes they showed tonight). And I don’t blame him. 

[sigmaforce86]

Joy is either one of those who gains a ton of weight in all the wrong places or she and Austin better have a good announcement planned for their 12lb "preemie".     Speaking of pregnancy weight poor Anna, even her wrists looked swollen, I felt sorry for her having to stand up there the whole ceremony.  I'm sure they asked did she want to but I'm also sure that even if it was uncomfortable Anna is too "sweet" to tell them No.

Spotted Ben, Jer and Austin in a row behind Mechelle and JB but where was Derrick, was he even at the wedding?
