Candace Cameron Bure Marks 36 Years of Playing D.J. Tanner with Cute Throwback of Her ‘Fuller House’ Wedding Dress

On Friday, the 47-year-old actress shared a throwback picture of her wearing a wedding dress, which she later wore on the beloved sitcom’s sequel series, Fuller House. In the post, Bure celebrated 36 years since taking on the iconic role of D.J. Tanner.

“That Friday feeling 🙌🏼— flashback to finding the DJ wedding dress ✨,” she captioned the Instagram pic, which showcased her throwing her arms up in delight and smiling. “Today also marks 36 years since becoming DJ Tanner.””What a ride,” she added. “So blessed!”
As fans may recall, D.J. married her high school sweetheart Steve Hale (portrayed by Scott Weinger) during a memorable triple wedding in the Fuller House series finale.

Prior to Steve, D.J. was married to firefighter Tommy Fuller Sr. (Dan Thiel), who later died on duty. They shared three sons: Jackson (Michael Campion), Max (Elias Harger) and Tommy Jr. (played by twins Dashiell and Fox Messitt).
Full House ran on ABC from Sept. 1987 to May 1995, spanning for a total of eight seasons. Aside from Bure and Weinger, it also starred John Stamos, Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, Jodie Sweetin, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Lori Loughlin and Andrea Barber.

Fuller House, a sequel following an adult D.J. as a widowed mother, premiered on Netflix in February 2016. The series ran for five seasons, concluding in June 2020. Numerous original cast members reprised their roles, and new actors also came in to play the roles of D.J. and Kimmy (Barber)’s kids as well as D.J., Stephanie (Sweetin) and Kimmy’s love interests.
At ’90s Con in Tampa last weekend, Bure reunited with her Full House costars Barber, Coulier and Sweetin, as well as series creator Jeff Franklin. Ahead of the event, she shared several sweet throwback photos of her and Weinger, 47, on Instagram.
