Honey Boo Boo’s Sister Anna Shannon Weds: Flowers, Tears, And A Missing Tooth…[Pictures!]


The eldest daughter of Mama June Shannon, Anna Shannon, wed fiance Michael Cardwell during the season finale of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, which aired on Thursday.

Michael proposed to Anna, also known as “Chickadee,” by spelling out the words “Marry Me” with pepperoni on a pizza at the annual Tallapoosa Possum Drop on New Year’s Eve. Here Comes Honey Boo Boo has focused on wedding preparations ever since.

The two were actually wed on May 3, but details have been kept under wrap for the season finale.

The bridesmaids included sisters Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon and Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon. The bridesmaids wore short white dresses with aqua skirts, paired with cowgirl boots. Of course, in true Shannon family style, Jessica could not stop picking at the back of her dress, causing sister Lauryn Shannon to scream, “Jessica, stop digging in your butt!” to which Jessica calmly explained, “I got cheese.”

Little sister Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Shannon was the flower girl, dressed in a white dress with an aqua sash, blonde curls in an up-do and “fancy” high heels. Surprisingly, out of all the Shannon sisters, Alana was the most reasonable, wondering why everyone was so stressed out, adding that “it’s only a wedding, people.” After dressing for the occasion, she turned to the camera and calmly explained, “This is not my first rodeo here, people.”

“This is not my first rodeo here, people.”

But fans who were expecting Anna Shannon’s wedding to follow the outrageous example set by Mama June Shannon nuptials to Sugar Bear were surely surprised at how elegant and lovely Anna looked, wearing a classic, fitted white gown. The decor was certainly rustic — guests, for example, sat on hay bales for the ceremony — but the choices Anna Shannon made for her wedding were tasteful. The groom himself wore a tan suit, and the couple was joined at the alter by Anna’s two-year-old daughter Kaitlyn, from a previous relationship, but she calls Michael “Daddy.”

The couple was joined by daughter Kaitlyn.

The ceremony, however, provided plenty of entertainment for those who have gotten used to the Shannon family’s antics. Guests were served pork kabobs, hot dogs, ribs, and corn, among other things, before Anna Shannon did the bridal bouquet toss. It was sister Jessica Shannon who caught the bouquet… but only by a technicality since she was so determined to catch the flowers that she actually plowed into her cousin Cassie and literally knocked one of Cassie’s teeth out.

Technical Knock Out: Jessica nabs the bridal bouquet but knocks a guest’s tooth out.

Mama June Shannon was more concerned with the fact that her daughter Jessica caught the bouquet — meaning she will be the next to marry — than the fact that her daughter knocked out the tooth of another guest, yelling, “Re-do, re-do, re-do! ‘Cause she is 17, going to be 18 next year. H*ll no!”

Anna Shannon Cardwell did a great job with her classy, if rustic, wedding and her classic beautiful dress… but the behavior and antics of the members of the Here Comes Honey Boo Boo family themselves never seem to change, whether they are at home in front of the TV or attending a wedding!
