— -- "19 Kids and Counting" star Jill Duggar's wedding to Derick Dillard was an emotional day for her family.

Perhaps nobody was more affected than her father Jim Bob.

"This is one of the most special days of your life," he said. "I'm giving you away. Do I have to give you away?"

Duggar, 23, who wed Dillard, 25, on June 21, is now pregnant with the couple's first child, a boy. For her, watching her father get emotional was "really, really special" and made the day "seem even more real."

"I said I wanted somebody like my dad and I know if you tell me he's good, [he is]," she told him.
