Obviously, Duggar weddings are noting new to us at this point.
It's no surprise when a member of the Duggar family rushes into marriage with a person whom they've only been dating for a few months.
But in most cases, the offspring of Jim Bob and Michelle are at least legal adults when they enter the relationship that will eventually lead to a wedding and many, many children.
They can't drink any champagne in celebration.
And they are legally banned from renting a car on their honeymoon.
Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey have sent a message to COVID-19.
Is it a responsible message? Is it a safe message? Is it a dangerous message?
News of Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey's engagement broke just over two months ago, right as Justin turned 18.
But barely legal though he may be, the Duggars are not ones for long engagements.
When it comes to marriage and procreation, the members of the Duggar clan don't believe in wasting time.
The fertility cult freaky religious sect they belong to teaches that it's the sacred obligation of every Christian woman to have as many children as physically possible, so that they might one day outnumber the non-believers and rule the world.
In the years since 19 Kids and Counting first made the Duggars a household name, we've witnessed quite a few of the family's courtships.
In fact, Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey's is the tenth such relationship.

And of course, in many ways, they're right about that.
Claire Spivey and Justin Duggar are engaged.
However...
When members of the Duggar family meet a suitable member of the opposite sex, they tend to sprint toward the altar at breakneck speed.
As Derick Dillard recently explained, it's because they want to have sex, and they're barely allowed to hold hands until they say "I do."
The Duggars are known for many things:
A strict adherence to their fundamental religion. A penchant for havings lots of children. A hatred for pants.
Claire Spivey and Justin Duggar are very young.
But they can't wait to grow old together.
As card carrying members of Duggar Nation know, young Justin Duggar announced he is marrying Claire Spivey - and even formally joined her church - on his 18th birthday.
Justin Duggar is engaged at the age of 18.
This means the reality star won't be allowed to legally purchase alcohol for another three years.
Now that Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey are engaged, they're not wasting any time.
And it looks like Justin is following in Jinger's footsteps: joining a new church and moving to Texas.
As we reported earlier this week, Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey are engaged after what appeared to be a very brief and very intense courtship.
Now, Duggars getting engaged at a very young age is obviously nothing new -- but Justin took it to a new level.
You know what they say about young love, right?
It cannot be tamed.
Justin Duggar and Claire Spivey have decided to get married and this is a story about true love, not about The Hollywood Gossip.
And yet:
Claire Spivey and Justin Duggar are back with a brand new video.
And, as a consequence, the very young couple has also sparked a brand new round of engagement speculation.
Of all the rumors about the Duggar family -- and there are many -- one of the most unpleasant to contemplate is the claim that Jim Bob arranges his children's marriages.
Critics claim the patriarch hand-picks suitable partners for his children from other prominent fundamentalist families.
They only just announced they're courting.
Neither is yet old enough to legally purchase alcohol.
