Wedding bells are ringing in Virgin River and Tudum had an early look at Mel and Jack’s big day. To celebrate the launch of Season 6, Netflix’s official companion site hosted a first-to-watch fan night on December 18, one day ahead of the new season’s launch.
The virtual VIP party, hosted by actor and content creator Mari Takahashi, included an early screening of the Season 6 premiere, trivia and a star-studded Q&A with stars Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson, Colin Lawrence and Zibby Allen. Thousands of fans from around the world including the US, Canada, France, Madagascar, Nigeria and Turkey attended after RSVPing via the happy couple’s wedding website. Throughout the event, attendees were encouraged to take virtual photos, which were featured in a virtual “quilt” of fans at the end of the party that fans could then share on their social channels.
