To recap, inside hours of Jana Duggar’s wedding ceremony date leaking, she married Stephen WIssmann.
None of this matches the sample of a “regular” Duggar wedding ceremony. And there have been hints that Jana and Stephen by no means abided by “courtship” guidelines.
Jana Duggar and Stephen Wissmann are married!
On Thursday, August 15, Jana Duggar married Stephen Wissmann. That they had a comparatively low-key ceremony regardless of Jana’s actuality TV fame and the presence of 500 company.
Jessa Duggar, certainly one of Jana’s innumerable sisters, was her maid of honor. Pleasure-Anna, jinger, Johannah, and Jordyn Duggar have been different bridesmaids, and so was sister-in-law Abbie Duggar. (Jill was not a part of the marriage social gathering)
Marriage is all however obligatory withing the Duggar household and to the fundamentalist cult to which they belong. However a lot of how this got here to be is simply too regular for the Duggar world.
Jana is 34 years outdated, moderately than being in her teenagers or very early 20s. She and Stephen had an actual engagement (he proposed in June) as a substitute of a courtship. And Jana and Stephen even (allegedly) dated a couple of years in the past and broke up earlier than reuniting early in 2024.
That’s now how the cult raised Jana Duggar and her siblings to reside. She’s residing her life like what she is — a grown grownup Millennial — moderately than like her father’s property.
The marriage — and, particularly, the marriage reception — had a whole lot of Jana’s followers questioning if she and Stephen made different regular decisions forward of their nuptials.
What does Jana Duggar and Stephen Wissmann’s PDA imply?
Many people have seen viral movies the place a fundamentalist bride and groom clearly do not know tips on how to kiss on the altar, as a result of they do not know tips on how to kiss.
That didn’t appear to be the case for Jana and Stephen. Though Jana’s siblings had chaperones throughout their oh-so-brief courtships to make sure that they didn’t a lot as “front-hug,” Jana and Stephen have been doing simply effective.
At one second throughout the wedding ceremony, Stephen picked up his new spouse. Touching the realm of Jana’s butt didn’t appear awkward to followers and commenters, who puzzled if this was not new territory for them.
This was about extra than simply courtship guidelines, nonetheless. Loads of snarky posts on social media, together with Twitter, famous that Jana was sporting a good looking wedding ceremony robe. A marriage robe that bared her shoulders.
Michelle Duggar has defined that, in her cult’s twisted theology, a lady displaying any quantity of attractiveness is “defrauding” onlookers as a result of they consider that it’s the lady’s fault if a person finds her engaging.

By that orthodoxy, Jana “defrauded” loads of wedding ceremony company. However the greater query is, to be blunt, simply what number of guidelines did Jana and Stephen break earlier than they tied the knot?
Throughout social media, folks cracked jokes about “entrance hugs,” “[sex worker] shoulders,” and extra — at the same time as they showered Jana with compliments.
Nevertheless, we have now to emphasise that that is all mere hypothesis. Properly, the minimize of the costume isn’t. And neither is Jana’s age, which makes her virtually a geriatric bride by Duggar requirements.
It’s doable that, in the future, Jana will open up about her (throughout the cult) “outdated maid” standing and what led as much as the marriage. For now, nonetheless, Jana is chalking the timing of her marriage as much as her God and leaving it at that.
The newlyweds are shifting

Collectively, they are going to reside of their new marital dwelling in a brand new state. Their new 5-bedroom home (which price solely $275,000) is in Lincoln, Nebraska.
They’ll be near the Wissmann household, whom Jana is aware of properly. They usually’ll be removed from Jim Bob and Michelle and the websites of Josh Duggar’s crimes. That sounds prefer it’s for one of the best.
