The first daughter to tie the knot was Jill Duggar Dillard, who married Derick Dillard in June 2014. Jill’s wedding was a grand affair, attended by around 1,000 guests, and was prominently featured in an episode of their family series. Following Jill’s marriage, her sister Jessa Duggar Seewald wed Ben Seewald in November of the same year. Jinger Duggar Vuolo and Jeremy Vuolo followed in November 2016, and Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth married Austin Forsyth in May 2017. The most recent marriage among the sisters is that of Jana Duggar Wissmann, who married Stephen Wissmann in August 2024.
Jana Duggar, born in 1990, is the eldest of the Duggar daughters. She and Stephen were childhood friends before tying the knot. Stephen, who also hails from a large family of twelve siblings, is involved in the family business and plays music in their family band. After their marriage, the couple welcomed their first child, son Archie Gerald, in December 2025. In a recent statement to *People*, Jana expressed her gratitude for the support from Stephen as they navigate their large families.
Jill and Derick Dillard, who began courting in 2013, have three sons together: Israel David, Samuel Scott, and Frederick Michael. Since becoming parents, Jill has distanced herself from her parents, seeking a more independent relationship. On a recent episode of *Vulnerable*, a podcast by Christy Carlson Romano, Jill reflected on her complicated family dynamics, stating that they hope for improved relationships with her family but are taking their time. Additionally, Derick’s enlistment in the U.S. Marine Corps has led them to relocate to Virginia and Rhode Island as he undergoes training.
Jessa Duggar Seewald and her husband Ben Seewald were also married in a similar style, with their wedding featured on the family show. Ben serves as a pastor at a Baptist church in Springdale, Arkansas, and he and Jessa are parents to six children, including four sons and two daughters. Most recently, Jessa announced on the *Unplanned Podcast* that the couple is expecting their seventh child, showcasing the family’s commitment to expanding their brood.
Jinger Duggar Vuolo married Jeremy Vuolo in late 2016. Their wedding was notable for being officiated by Jeremy’s father, adding a personal touch to their special day. Jeremy, a former professional soccer player turned pastor, and Jinger have embraced a path of independence from the conservative values of their upbringing. They have welcomed three children: two daughters and a son. Jinger has also ventured into authorship, releasing memoirs that discuss her evolving faith and values.
Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth’s relationship with Austin Forsyth is rooted in a long-standing friendship, having known each other for 15 years before their marriage in May 2017. Austin has established a career in construction and holds a pilot’s licence. The couple are parents to three children and announced they are expecting a fourth child in September 2026.
With five out of nine daughters married, the Duggar family continues to navigate the complexities of large family dynamics and relationships. Each sister’s journey into motherhood has unfolded on their social media platforms, where they share intimate moments and milestones with their growing families. The Duggars remain a compelling family narrative, balancing traditional values with the pursuit of individual identities in a rapidly changing world.
