Duggar Wedding Date and More Details

Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald have officially announced their wedding date. The two will recite their vows in front of family and friends on Saturday, November 1st.

Their wedding is less than eight weeks away, and the future Mr. and Mrs. Seewald say they have already finished most of the planning.

"When you're planning a wedding, you can make it complicated, or make it simple, and we are trying to make ours simple," Ben told PEOPLE. "There are some things that have to be done right before the wedding, but for the most part, we're ready." 

One of the most time-consuming parts of planning a Duggar wedding is choosing the wedding party and finding outfits for everyone to wear.

"We have the bridal party picked, and the colors are done," Jessa told PEOPLE. "The bridesmaids dresses are selected."

Considering they have only been engaged for just over three weeks, that is quite impressive! Jessa is also happy to report that she recently went wedding dress shopping and fell in love with the second gown she tried on.

In the evenings, Jessa works on wedding planning while Ben, a college sophomore studying political science, completes online school assignments.

Jessa and her fiancé, who recently moved in with the Duggars and spends his days doing odd jobs for Jim Bob and Michelle, have also made a point to exercise together.

"We do a lot of weight lifting and cardio together, trying to stay fit," Ben told PEOPLE. "Some of the other kids, like Joy and Jason, sometimes join in. We have a little workout club going."
