Former Bachelor lead Joey Graziadei and his fiancée, Kelsey Anderson, are moving forward with their wedding plans, having confirmed a date and location. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly on March 12, 2024, at HGTV’s Bachelor Mansion Makeover event, Joey revealed, “We did finally get a date, we’ve got a location [and] we got a venue.” While specifics remain under wraps, he hinted that their wedding will take place “next year.”
The couple is eager to celebrate their relationship with a significant gathering of family and friends. “We want to celebrate us and what we’ve been able to build over these last few years,” Joey expressed. He emphasized the importance of creating a day that focuses on their love, stating, “It’s supposed to be about celebrating our love.”
Invitations from Bachelor Nation
Joey indicated that their wedding guest list will include several familiar faces from Bachelor Nation. Notable attendees will likely include Kaity Biggar, Zach Shallcross, Charity Lawson, and Dotun Olubeko, who have played pivotal roles in their journey. “They’ve been so pivotal for us, helping us through our whole experience,” Joey added, highlighting the bond they share with these fellow contestants.
Joey and Kelsey’s engagement occurred at the conclusion of season 28 of The Bachelor, which aired in 2024. Joey became the lead after competing on Charity’s season of The Bachelorette, where he finished as the runner-up. Charity, who accepted a proposal from Dotun, has also maintained connections with Kaity, who married Zach in 2025. The intertwining relationships within Bachelor Nation have fostered a supportive community for Joey and Kelsey.
Anticipation and Celebrations
Kelsey is equally enthusiastic about their upcoming nuptials, expressing her desire for a memorable celebration. “I just want all of our friends and family that we love so much…to be there,” she said, emphasizing a focus on romance and fun rather than intricate details. Her vision for the day is clear: to create an atmosphere filled with love and joy.
On the same day as their wedding planning discussions, Kelsey took a break to celebrate the premiere of HGTV’s Bachelor Mansion Takeover. This show features alumni of the franchise competing to renovate rooms in the iconic mansion for a chance to win $100,000. Kelsey expressed her excitement about seeing the renovations, noting, “I was, like, ‘It kind of looks a little smaller than I remember.’”
As Joey and Kelsey prepare for this next chapter in their lives, their excitement is palpable. With a wedding on the horizon and a supportive network from their Bachelor connections, the couple looks forward to a bright future together. Bachelor Mansion Takeover airs Mondays at 20:00 EDT on HGTV, with episodes available for streaming the following day on HBO Max.
