With so many inquiries to resolve from Brie’s (Zibby Allen) love life to Doc’s (Tim Matheson) medical licence to Everett’s (Callum Kerr) well being and Mel’s wedding ceremony, let’s dive straight in.

Be warned, spoilers forward!

Virgin River season 6 ending defined

After driving off into the sundown, Jack takes Mel to the spot beside the river they used to go to in season 1. As they reminisce about their relationship and what they’ve overcome since they first met, Mel’s fears begin to dissipate as she admits she was overwhelmed on the considered dropping her future second husband too. Jack shares his vows as he pledges himself to Mel they usually resolve to return to the marriage and get married – thank goodness.

Solely an hour behind Lizzie (Sarah Dugdale) and Hope’s (Annette O’Toole) meticulous schedule, the duo tie the knot with all of the gradual movement, laughing photographs, and sun-kissed cute moments you’d anticipate. Jack even adjustments into his military uniform, proudly sporting his medals of honour and accepting this difficult chapter of his life.

It’s a spectacular picture-perfect affair set open air to the backdrop of Lily’s now transformed and re-established barn. The marriage is a night crammed with firsts (particularly Jack’s dad saying he’s happy with him) and presents loads of contemplation for different {couples} to mirror on their relationships.

Learn extra:

When Preacher (Colin Lawrence) practices his finest man speech, Kaia (Kandyse McClure) displays on her personal failed marriage and confesses to him that she wouldn’t get married once more. Lizzie, after Joey’s (Jenny Cooper) children candidly ask how she is pregnant with out being married, tells Denny (Kai Bradbury) that it looks as if he ought to he marry her. Greatly surprised by the remark, it appears Denny and Lizzie would possibly nonetheless be on completely different pages about their future.

Nonetheless, the good-hearted Preacher takes Kaia’s remark in his stride and even re-writes the very best man speech – on the spot! – to mirror the bravery of deciding to fall in love once more after heartbreak.

Although Muriel (Teryl Rothery) had one of the tragic storylines this season, after being recognized with breast most cancers, she ends on a word of optimism. On the reception, Muriel discovers that Walt is an excellent dancer and feels bolstered on the thought that they’re nonetheless creating their belief and information of one another. Her former flame Cameron (Mark Ghanimé) components with Muriel, which is a pleasant ultimate bow to tie up that rushed storyline from final season.

That isn’t the top of the surprises. Everett arrives and performs the music he wrote for Mel’s mom for her first dance, because it appears even a coronary heart assault can’t maintain him away from his daughter’s wedding ceremony.

Nonetheless, not everybody finds such home bliss this season. A teary Brie is plagued with guilt after sleeping with Brady (Ben Hollingsworth) and confesses to her new sister, Mel and pal Kaia about her indiscretion within the reception. Her head is telling her to maneuver on with Mike (Marco Grazzini), her coronary heart is hung up on Brady and Mel correctly advises her if she will be able to’t select one among them to allow them to each go.

If solely it had been that easy. Later, Mike asks to talk to Brie and their personal dialog – paradoxically across the excessive ethical requirements Mel and Jack have set – leads Mike to an impromptu proposal with a plastic bottle ring. Panicked by this gesture, Brie confesses she slept with Brady to which he replies: “I do know”.

Even with this bombshell and the inevitable look forward to season 7 to find what occurs subsequent, arguably, it’s Brady’s relationship that ends with the largest bang. On the finish of the night time, Jo Ellen (Gwynth Walsh) reveals that Lark (Elsie Gatien) and Hazel haven’t solely left the marriage venue, however checked out of the BnB and left for good. After a fast verify of his financial institution stability, he realises they’ve additionally left with all his insurance coverage cash.

Vernon can also be served a ultimate curveball within the type of a letter to say his medical licence has been suspended as a result of pending investigation. But, Hope’s tenacity has uncovered a much bigger plot at play: Grace Valley needs to develop their medical care into Virgin River by booting Vernon out and taking on his clinic.

It’s protected to imagine “one hell of a battle” for the 30-year-old clinic will happen in subsequent season, in addition to the fallout from Brady’s daylight theft. Nonetheless, it wouldn’t be Virgin River with out a ultimate cliff-hanger – or two – to go away followers pleading for the subsequent instalment.

Mel’s blissful morning after her wedding ceremony is interrupted by a closely pregnant Marley who’s distressed as Darla and Phil now not need to undertake her child. To not worry although, Marley has an answer: Mel can have her child as an alternative. Shell shocked, Mel doesn’t reply – however viewers will know that Mel and Jack wished to undertake so might this be a miracle?

Nonetheless, this season culminates (the place finales on this present usually do) with Charmaine. Mel was involved that Jack’s ex was a no present for the marriage to do her hair and nonetheless isn’t replying to any of her texts, so she sends Jack spherical to ensure she’s OK. In any case, Calvin did threaten each Charmaine, Jack and the infants in current weeks.

When Jack arrives, one thing is off: the door is ajar, the home has indicators of a wrestle. A child’s lullaby performs from one other room, as Jack slowly opens the door – it cuts to his alarmed face and cuts out.

From the ultimate look on his face, it’s not too far-fetched to imagine the worst has occurred. However is Charmaine useless? The twins gone? Solely time will inform. Let’s hope a launch date for season 7 is confirmed quickly…
