The Bachelor: Signs Joey Graziadei And Kelsey Anderson Will Set A Wedding Date Soon (Will There Be A Bachelor Wedding In 2025?)

It's been well over a year since Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson got engaged on The Bachelor season 28, and there are signs they'll be announcing their wedding date soon. It's hard to articulate what a big deal Joey and Kelsey's wedding would be, as they are Bachelor Nation royalty. Due in part to their social media presence, they're arguably the most closely watched couple in all of Bachelor Nation history. 28-year-old Joey made his television debut during The Bachelorette season 20, but when Charity Lawson chose another man, Joey was cast as the franchise's next male lead instead.

The consolation prize turned out to be the best thing that could happened to Joey because it's where he met 26-year-old Kelsey. The Bachelor season 28 ended with Joey giving Kelsey his final rose and a diamond engagement ring. The engaged couple jumped headfirst into the relationship and even moved in together right away. Joey and Kelsey have been together ever since, and they've been building a new life together while sharing their relationship milestones on social media.

Joey & Kelsey Moved To A New Place

Home Sweet Home

Before joining the cast of The Bachelorette, Joey lived in Hawaii, but he gave up his apartment when he left to do the show. Since he was cast as The Bachelor almost right away, he didn't bother getting a new place in between stints, opting to stay with his sister. After getting engaged during The Bachelor season 28, Joey and Kelsey wanted to live together, so they decided to move into Kelsey's place in New Orleans. Though she had multiple female roommates, Joey and Kelsey were traveling a lot, so the situation worked for them.

When Joey was cast as a contestant on Dancing With The Stars season 33, Joey and Kelsey moved to Los Angeles, where the show films. After Joey and his professional dance partner, Jenna Johnson, won the entire show, Joey and Kelsey decided to stay in Los Angeles. It took them a while to figure out where to live, so the decision felt like a big deal. Now that Joey and Kelsey have chosen a place to settle down in, they may finally be ready to get married.

Joey & Kelsey's Family Christmas

Their Second Holiday Together

Joey and Kelsey are already so close to each other's families. Kelsey recently posted Instagram holiday photos from Christmas with the Anderson family. Kelsey's father, Mark Anderson, was first introduced to Bachelor fans when Joey and Kelsey went to Louisiana for hometown dates during The Bachelor. Mark was then cast in The Golden Bachelorette season 1. Since being eliminated from the show by Joan Vassos, Mark's been seen hanging around with Barbara Alyn Wood, who also appears in the Anderson family holiday photo.

The fact that Joey and Kelsey are already spending their holidays together for two years is another indicator that they'll be announcing a wedding date soon. Fans are in a big hurry for another Bachelor wedding, but people have to keep in mind Joey and Kelsey were strangers when they met on the opening night of The Bachelor season 28 in September 2023. They've known each other for less than a year and a half, so, understandably, they don't want to rush into marriage.

Joey & Kelsey Are Talking About Children

Family Planning

Another sign that Joey and Kelsey will set a wedding date soon is that they're already talking about having children. During the Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour podcast with Susan Noles and Kathy Swarts from The Golden Bachelor season 1, Kelsey revealed she and Joey both wanted children, but they didn't see eye to eye on the number. Kelsey wants as many children as possible and even wants to adopt one, while Joey wants two or three children at the most.

Joey and Kelsey both come from bigger families. Joey is one of three children and is very close to his two sisters. Kelsey is one of five children, so she's used to a large family. Kelsey is also eager to strengthen family bonds after losing her beloved mother, Denise Anderson, in 2018. Kelsey and Denise were very close, and Kelsey is still deeply in mourning for her mother. For a long time, she couldn't think about planning a wedding because it always made her think of her mother, which was too hard.

They'll Likely Make An Announcement Soon

Joey and Kelsey may be too busy to plan a wedding. Since leaving The Bachelor season 28, they've been focused on growing their careers as public figures and social media influencers. After his successful stint on Dancing With The Stars, Joey signed on to appear on the DWTS live show which tours all over the country. If Joey's going to be touring with a live show, he won't be home much, so he's not in any position to plan a wedding anytime soon.

In August, Kelsey and Joey posted an Instagram sponsorship with the convenience store chain, Wawa. In the clip, when fans ask about a wedding date, Kelsey replies, "definitely within the next two years." She went on to say that they'd pick a date "within the next six months." Since that was about four months ago, The Bachelor couple could make an announcement any day now.
