JANA DUGGAR & STEPHEN WESSMAN SOURCE: PEOPLE
A lot of exciting things have happened and continue to happen with the Duggars. A few years after Josh Duggar went to jail, the rest of the family finally started to move forward. Duggar News followers have been keeping up with many family members and all the milestones they have been hitting. One of them is Jana Duggar, who tied the knot a few days ago.
Everyone was surprised by this reveal. That’s because Jana was on a social media hiatus earlier and returned this year. Since then, she has begun sharing life updates about living in a new house but has stayed mum about her love life. After spotting a ring on her finger, fans realized she was already engaged, and finally, she announced her wedding. So, how much did it cost?
Duggar News: Jana Duggar & Stephen Weissman Used Cost-Cutting Methods To Afford Their Wedding!
Duggar News followers know that Jana has been on top of the moon. In August, the eldest Duggar sibling finally tied the knot with her old boyfriend, Stephen Weissman. This year has been incredible for her as she just returned to social media. With this, she announced moving into a new house, flaunted her engagement ring, and finally announced she got hitched.
As per the reports, Jana Duggar and Stephan Weissman had a guestlist of over 500 people. Both of them come from large Christian fundamentalist families. While everyone knows Jana has 18 other siblings, her husband also has 12 other brothers and sisters. They have been wondering how much the grand affair may have cost them.
According to Cheatsheet, Jana and Stephen may have strategically tied the knot on a Thursday. It’s because Wedding venues often cut down the price for mid-week events, and weekends are costlier. That’s not all. The Duggar News couple also didn’t opt for catering services. Surprisingly, Stephen’s family prepared the meals for the event.
Research suggests that Jana and Stephen’s wedding venue, The Grand at Willow Springs, has an expansive package worth $7,500. However, after considering their cost-cutting methods, they may have spent around $6000 or less on the venue. Duggar News followers have been rather impressed with their strategies.
Duggar News: How Much Did Jana Pay For Her Wedding Dress?
As the wedding pictures from Jana and Stephen’s wedding were out, fans couldn’t help but notice the bride’s gown. Duggar News followers realized that her dress was simple, lacking complex detailing, beading, or expensive fabrics. Some websites suggest that an average bride spends as much as $1,800 and $2,400 on her gown. Jana may have gone down the same path.
If we take music arrangement, decoration, flowers, and photography into consideration, the couple may have paid as much as $4000 for these things. So, after putting all these aspects together, it seems like Jana and Stephen had a grand event and may have spent around $10,000-$15,000 on their wedding.
