Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald are officially engaged, and fans are wondering about wedding details.

The couple announced the engagement in a statement to People magazine on Friday.

“We are so blessed to be engaged! God has written an amazing story through our courtship, and another chapter has just begun!” the couple said in a statement.

“We are thrilled to see what the future holds – especially the wedding bells!”

Duggar, 21, is the third-oldest daughter in the family and the second to get married. She also has two older brothers, among many other siblings.

“We do have a lot in common,” she told People during her courtship with Seewald, 19.

“He is a mellow personality, very romantic and very sweet. I am very cut and dried. And my sisters are coaching me on sweet romantic things to say.”

Jill Duggar, 23, recently married Derick Dillard, 25, a wedding that will be featured on the upcoming season of 19 Kids and Counting on TLC.

As of now, there are no details released about a wedding date, dress, registry, or website--but some should be made available soon.

Thousands attended Jill and Derick’s wedding, with even more invited that didn’t get a chance to make it.

The Duggars seem to be getting more popular as the kids get older and start getting married and have families of their own.

Jessa also told People in the past that she and Ben want to have a big family.

“We both want to have a big family,” says Jessa. “We are talking about our goals and the future with family. We have both talked about adoption and want to adopt, too.”

The number of children they have hasn’t been decided, but will be left “up to God. Ben has six siblings.
