Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald make wedding invitation public via TLC website

 TLC

Less than a month left before the big day, Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald finally revealed the photo invitation for their wedding, set on Nov. 1.

The invitation features a candidly sweet photo of the future Mr. and Mrs. Seewald while gazing lovingly at each other. It contains the words:

Mr. & Mrs. Jim Bob Duggar request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Jessa Lauren Duggar to Benjamin Michael Seewald, son of Michael & Guin Seewald."

It also indicates the date of the wedding.

The invitation, as well as the other engagement photos, was posted on the official website of TLC, the network that airs the everyday lives of Jessa and her big family in the long-running reality show "19 Kids and Counting."

This will be the second wedding for the Duggar family this year, as Jessa's older sister Jill married Derick Dillard in June. The Dillards are now expecting their first child who is due to arrive in March 2015.

Just like her older sister, Jessa wants to share her first kiss with her future husband in front of the altar. The Duggar women are known for their conservative views about dating, and they believe that intimacy should be saved before marriage.

The couple had been busy with all the wedding preparations these past few weeks, and their family had been helping them make their plans for the big ceremony.

"I tell you it is very busy," said future father-of-the-bride Jim Bob. "Jessa is working on all these details that she and Ben are planning. I really don't have a vision of how to put a wedding together, it is just an endless amount of details and choices. It is overwhelming. But, we are excited for Ben and Jessa and how the Lord has worked in their lives."

The couple is looking forward to raise their own family soon. 

"We're both open to children and looking forward to starting a family of our own. We also really want to adopt," the 21-year-old upcoming bride said.  The19-year-old husband-to-be seems to share this vision with his future wife.
