The happy announced they had entered into courtship back in January and got engaged less than three months later.

TLC confirmed the engagement news to E! News at the time.

"Lauren and I are engaged! This is an exciting big step in our lives and the whole thing was very meaningful," the Counting On star said in a statement. The bridegroom also revealed that he popped the question at a very special spot. "The place where I proposed to Lauren is the exact spot where her parents were engaged. There's a lot of family history on this property making it a special place for Lauren."

"I'm really excited to be getting married to Josiah," the bride-to-be said at the time of the proposal. "Everything about the engagement was such a special moment for me. I'm especially looking forward to spending the rest of my life with him!"

Congratulations to the new wife and husband!
