The Dugger's wedding receptions

I was watching the show last night and heard they will have about 900 or more invited to the daughters wedding.

Who knows that many people? Are they all relatives or close friends or just everyone that goes to their church?

Also, I suspect they don't have traditional receptions with a meal, dancing and cocktails. How could they even offer more than some punch and a piece of cake?

The daughter did pick out a lovely wedding gown to wear.

Anyone else watching?

Yes, there is definitely someone else watching.

No, I didn't watch.

I cannot even wrap my head around having that many people to a wedding.

I wouldn't feel right about having so many people volunteer to throw a wedding for someone in my family either.

Is it a wedding or a circus?

Wasn't it 900 people in a gym eating ice cream?

Who even knows 900 people?

I imagine most families they invite have several children. Maybe that is why the guest list is so up there? I watched last night. I was interested in the dress she would be choosing.

Her dress was beautiful. Hope you don't mind my posting this pic, OP, if so I'll be happy to delete.

Re: The Dugger's wedding receptions

We had a very small wedding, just us and eight guests. Some of DH's distant cousins still aren't speaking to us for not inviting them (even though I've never met them and they lived thousands of miles away from our wedding venue).

I absolutely can't imagine knowing 900 people, let alone inviting them to a wedding.

Happy to see it! It's a lovely gown and it looks great on her. I didn't care for the peachy bridesmaids dresses though.

From the photo, she has a substantial train on that dress. I never liked dragging a bunch of fabric down the aisle or walking around in it.

I married my husband in a dress I took out of the closet, at a wedding chapel. Only two couple were asked to be present. We have lasted 33 years - no blow out bash was necessary.
