Over the weekend, Joy-Anna Duggar and Austin Forsyth got married after just over six months of dating (or “courting,” in the Duggar parlance).
That may seem incredibly fast, but procreation is kind of the Duggars’ thing, and we imagine most (all) young people would rush to the altar too if they were denied any premarital physical contact beyond hand-holding.
But while Joy-Anna and Austin’s courtship was certainly a short one, the young couple didn’t seem to have any doubts on their big day.
Check out some of the best pics from the occasion – documented on the Counting On season premiere June 12 – in the gallery below:
