Jessa Duggar will soon be making an appearance on another TLC show. The Counting On star will be on the upcoming season of Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta, the network announced Feb. 26. Jessa won’t be shopping for herself — she’s been married to Ben Seewald since November 2014. Instead, she’ll be helping her sister in law find the perfect gown for her big day.

In the episode, Jessa and her sister-in-law Jessica head to Bridals by Lori in Atlanta to find Jessica’s wedding dress. But it sounds like Jessa and Jessica weren’t exactly on the same page when it came to a wedding day look. The mom of three suggests a modest dress, but the bride is apparently feeling a bit more adventurous. 

While Jessa preferred a more conservative look, it seems like Jessica went with her gut. In wedding day photos she shared to Instagram, she’s wearing a sleeveless gown with a low back. 

“Best moment of my life,” she captioned one of the photos. According to People, both Jessica and her husband are police officers in Arkansas. They married in May 2019. 

Jessa’s wedding dress 

While Jessa and her sister-in-law may not have been on exactly the same page when it came to Jessica’s dress, it’s clear that the reality TV star can be trusted to pick a pretty gown. 

On her wedding day, Jessa wore a short-sleeved blush-colored dress by Allure Bridals that she found at Tesori Bridal in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It had a fully-beaded bodice, People reported, and Jessa opted to have some of the tulle removed so that it would fall the way she liked. 

“It was the second dress I tried on,” Jessa told the magazine. “I love it.”

While Jessa’s dress was a little different from an all-white gown, that didn’t make her hesitate. “We didn’t know if she would like it because it wasn’t the traditional white,” shop owner Lindsey Stavely told the magazine. But Jessa — and her sisters — knew a winner when they saw one. 

“She kept coming back to this dress and all her sisters were like, ‘the second one, the second one,’ so everyone agreed,” the shop’s co-owner Erin Bridges said.

Maddie & Tae, Brandi Williams will also be on this season of ‘SYTTD: Atlanta’

Jessa won’t be the only recognizable face on this season of Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta. Country music duo Maddie & Tae also pay a visit to Lori’s Bridals. They’re searching for bridesmaids dresses for Maddie’s crew before they head out on tour. And actress Brandi Williams from Bring It On is on the hunt for something different from her usual red carpet looks. 

Also this season, viewers will see a maid of honor who seems determined to take over the “bridezilla” role from her identical twin, who’s the one who’s actually getting married. Plus, there’s a same-sex couple trying to make all 11 of their bridesmaids happy, as well as a bride whose vision of an “urban mermaid” look for her wedding is more swimwear than traditional bridal attire. Finally, the Bridals By Lori team must band together after Lori has a scary accident that takes her out of commission for a period of time. 

Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta premieres Saturday, March 21 at 8/7c on TLC.
