Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson’s Wedding Was Reportedly Thrown Together Last Minute: “Everything Was Messed Up”
Newlyweds Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson just got hitched, but apparently, their wedding didn't go down without a hitch! The Counting On stars tied the knot just last week, but a new report reveals their reception was a complete disaster.
According to Radar Online, a witness revealed, "The whole event was chaotic. Everything was messed up." Ouch! They added, "The organizer messed everything up for the volunteers and the venue."
Although the insider made no mention of who the wedding planner was, Jana Duggar's BFF — and rumored love interest! — Laura DeMasie, planned Joy-Anna and Austin Forsyth's wedding as well as Joe and Kendra Caldwell's. Hmm…
Si and Laur said "I do" at the John Brown University Cathedral of the Ozarks in Siloam Springs, AR. The ceremony was officiated by Lauren's father Dwain Swanson, and Lauren was accompanied by eight bridesmaids wearing handmade blush dresses.
Their engagement was announced in March, which was about six weeks after they announced their courtship. Although they received backlash for their quickie relationship, Laur was given the stamp of approval from Jim Bob and Michelle.
"We are so excited to announce that Josiah and Lauren are officially engaged!!" the Duggar family wrote in a statement at the time. "We have prayed for many years that the Lord would bring the right spouses to each of our children. We have known Lauren and her family for a very long time and have seen how she has grown in her knowledge and understanding of the Lord. She is a wonderful, caring, compassionate young lady, full of zeal for Christ."
Now that they're married, they're pretty pumped about it, too. "What a joy it is to be husband and wife!" the couple said following their nuptials. "Our wedding day was absolutely perfect!" Congrats! Now let's just hope Lauren's bizarre video was in response to her crappy reception… and not the fact that she actually despises her husband.
