Last month, Joseph Duggar married Kendra Caldwell in front of a couple thousand of his family’s closest friends.
The big day was documented by a TLC camera crew, of course, and last night, fans finally got to see Joe and Kendra say “I do.”
Check out some of the highlights–including the couple’s long-awaited first kiss–in the gallery below:
