Fans of 19 Kids & Counting everywhere probably want to know every little detail that went into Ben and Jessa Seewald's Nov. 1 wedding day.

MStars News has learned more! We previously told you that the newlyweds traveled to Paris, France, for their romantic honeymoon after the bride wore a nontraditional wedding dress that was colored blush pink instead of white.

Now we have learned that the couple had a song played before they were pronounced husband and wife. No, we don't know if the two literally went "dancing in the fields," where their church ceremony was held, but their wedding song, "Dancing in the Mine Fields," seems to be pretty accurate for the new couple.

We won't write all the lyrics of this beautiful song, but the words below seemed to be just right on describing Ben and Jessa's love story:

I was 19, you were 21
The year we got engaged
Everyone said we were much too young
But we did it anyway

We bought our rings for 40 each
From a pawn shop down the road
We made our vows and took the leap
Now 15 years ago

We went dancing in the mine fields
We went sailing in the storm
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for

"I do" are the two most famous last words
The beginning of the end
But to lose your life for another I've heard
Is a good place to begin

The family blog describes how the song played a part during the big day:

"Before being pronounced husband and wife at their wedding, Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald had the sound engineers play a song that they had carefully selected for their special day."

The Duggars wrote, "It was Andrew Peterson's  'Dancing in the Mine Fields,' and although it wasn't written for the Seewalds, it is an appropriate representation of their love story. Here is the music video."
