It’s been a year since Virgin River aired its Season 5, Part 2 finale and left viewers with several suspenseful cliffhangers. If you miss the small-town charm and shenanigans, you’re in luck! It’s almost time to head back to town for what we can only assume is the most important wedding in Virgin River history.
Per Netflix‘s official Virgin River synopsis, “Against the backdrop of Mel and Jack’s romantic spring wedding season, this sixth installment promises fresh twists and turns, escalating love triangles, delightful wedding drama, as well as uncovered secrets from Mel’s father’s past which will transport us to the magic and mystique of Virgin River in the 1970s.”
