'19 Kids and Counting' season 8 finale preview: Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald wedding

"19 Kids and Counting" season 8 finally came to an end last Tuesday night on TLC. However, the season didn't go out just like that. 

Fans of the show already know what's coming in season 9, and that's Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald's wedding. But last Tuesday, TLC was kind enough to give a massive sneak peek of the wedding. 

In the teaser clip, viewers can see Jessa preparing for her big day. The teaser is actually a 30-second montage showing a variety of clips, including that of the bride wearing her Allure Bridals wedding down. There are also glimpses of Jessa wearing her veil, getting her bouquet, walking down the aisle with dad Jim Bob, and posing for the wedding photos.

While the highlight of the sneak peek is definitely the bride, it also shows the groom twice. The first is at the wedding rehearsal and the other shows Jessa fixing his collar.

Other highlights of the 30-second sneak peek include Michelle saying that she's excited about the wedding and Jim Bob saying, "I just can't believe that little Jessa has grown up."

Moreover, maid-of-honor Jinger got very emotional seeing her sister donning the wedding dress. She is seen getting teary-eyed while giving her speech.

For those who are not familiar with the details, Jessa and Ben got married on Nov. 1 at the First Baptist Church in Bentonville, Arkansas. The courting started in Sept. 2013, then the couple got engaged in August. The engagement was short but that's how the Duggars want it. After the wedding, Jessa and Ben headed to Paris for their honeymoon.

TLC hasn't confirmed the premiere date for season 9 which will show Jessa's wedding. But most likely, it will just be a couple of months away from now, given that season 9 has been filmed already.
