The exciting news comes just three months after the two got engaged following one month of courting. The pair knew each other for years, but only met in person earlier this year when John-David attended a church event in Oklahoma. They "really got connected then," he told TLC in June. 

“We’ve been ready for this step for a little while, but it was really just I had a lot of things I wanted to get done to make it really special,” John-David continued. “I don’t know if I succeeded or not, but it was a lot of things.”

Abbie always had the seal of approval from John-David's parents.

"We are so excited to announce the courtship of John-David and Abbie!" Jim Bob and Michelle wrote in a statement on the family's website in June. "John-David brings our hearts so much joy and we've watched him faithfully pray, wait, and trust God for the right girl to come along! Now, a beautiful relationship has blossomed between the two of them. We can't wait to see what the Lord will do in the future."
