‘Virgin River’ Teases Mel and Jack’s Wedding in Season 6 [Video]
Save the date! Netflix has dropped a teaser for Virgin River Season 6. The new clip is giving us a first look at what might be the show’s most romantic moment yet: Mel and Jack’s wedding.
‘Virgin River’ Season 6 teaser revisits Jack’s proposal
Mel (Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack (Martin Henderson) have had a rollercoaster of a relationship over the past five seasons. But the turmoil has only made them stronger as a couple. Now, they’re ready to take the next step in their life together.
“Mel, from the moment I set eyes on you, I knew you were special,” Jack says in the teaser (via YouTube), which revisits the moment he popped the question in season 4.
“And as I’ve fallen deeper in love with you, that feeling’s only grown stronger,” Jack continues over a montage of moments from his and Mel’s relationship. “And I want to spend the rest of my life making you the happiest woman in the world. What I’m asking is… will you marry me?”
Next season of ‘Virgin River’ will feature a ‘romantic spring wedding season’
Unsurprisingly, the teaser doesn’t feature any footage of Mel and Jack at the altar. But we see them practicing what looks like their first dance. There’s also a glimpse of various Virgin River women in a bridal boutique, where they are presumably watching Mel try on dresses. Mel appears to head off for her bachelorette party in a hot pink SUV limo, while Jack gets fitted for a tuxedo. The trailer ends with a brief look at the bottom of a wedding dress.
According to the logline from Netflix, the new season of Virgin River will unspool “against the backdrop of Mel and Jack’s romantic spring wedding season,” with “fresh twists and turns, escalating love triangles, [and] delightful wedding drama.” There will also be “uncovered secrets from Mel’s father’s past which will transport us to the magic and mystique of Virgin River in the 1970s.”
Exactly what Mel and Jack’s wedding will look like remains to be seen. But last year, Breckenridge said there was a good chance it would resemble her real-life wedding to husband Casey Hooper.
The actor’s 2015 wedding took place at a refurbished mining town in Colorado. It “looked very similar to what you would think Mel’s wedding would look like,” Breckenridge told TVLine. (You can see it for yourself on Instagram.) While she didn’t necessarily want to recreate her own big day onscreen, she admitted that Mal and Jack’s wedding may “end up looking very similar” to her own.
Virgin River Season 6 premieres Dec. 19 on Netflix.
