The Duggars have never been the kind of family to stick to societal norms, but their son John-David managed to take things a step further at his wedding to Abbie Burnett. Instead of leaving their nuptials in a getaway car, the groom chose to leave his reception in a getaway airplane!

John-David and Abbie had already broken Duggar tradition when they decided to get married in her hometown of Ada, Oklahoma, instead of Springfield, Arkansas, where the Duggars live.

Even though an airplane hangar would have been different enough, John-David and Abbie fully committed to the flying theme by leaving their reception in an airplane, which John-David piloted!
