Virgin River Season 6 photos prove fans were right about one theory all along

It’s been anyone’s guess what lies in store forVirgin River Season 6, but eagle-eyed fans have been proved right by one first-look photo.

Aside fromwhat Everett has to tell Melat the end ofSeason 5 Part 2, we’ve been clutching at storyline straws for most of the year. EvenMel and Jack’s weddingwasn’t confirmed until a few months ago.

That hasn’t stopped fans from speculating over every inch of potential narrative. We’ve had suggestions that Denny isn’t the real father of Lizzie’s baby, as well as Mel potentially having hidden siblings and relatives thanks to Everett’s secrets.

But this is all mere speculation! What about what wedoknow? The above photo for Season 6’s promotional material has proved one less-unhinged fan theory to be completely right.

A steamboat is definitely used in Mel & Jack’s wedding

Back in May, it was reported that a TV crew were filming on a paddle steamer in Vancouver, later rumored to be theVirgin River cast. Fans immediately suspected this to be part of Mel and Jack’s nuptials… and they were right.

“This also makes sense because it brings back previous events: their first date at the marina, the Evermore pond scene, the canceled moonlight dinner cruise for Mel’s birthday,” onespeculatedat the time.

“My thoughts are the wedding ceremony is outdoors on their new property and the reception is on the paddle boat,” another weighed in.

It’s this last theory that holds the most weight. If you’ve been following thebinge-worthy TV show‘s marketing campaign, you’ll have spotted that the actual ceremony will be taking place in a barn. Regardless, the steamboat will be used in their plans… it’s just a question of how.

Virgin River Season 7 renewal, cast & everything else we know

Virgin River Season 7 is officially in production but two people are missing

Virgin River fans convinced it will end with Season 7 and there’s a simple reason

The reception could be an informal one – imagine all the town’s residents having a say in what’s going on – or it could be a rehearsal or bachelor celebration. In the official picture, we see Jack holding something resembling a sparkler, meaning something about their big day is being marked forever.

Fans can expect to find solid answers in Season 6’s final episode, aptly titled ‘The Big Day.’
