Duggar, 21, began a courtship with Seewald last September. Not long after, she took his name for her Twitter handle.

“Courtship is a new season of life. It’s exciting,” she told "Good Morning America" last year. “We call it dating with a purpose and not just frivolous, really considering the person as a potential life partner."

Duggar will be the third of her parents' 19 kids to tie the knot. Her brother Josh, now a father of three, tied the knot in 2008, while her sister Jill wed Derick Dillard this past June.
