The Bachelor couple Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson have dished about their wedding plans now that they're further along in their relationship.

"The wedding's on the horizon," Kelsey, 27, teased in a joint interview with People.

Joey, 30, agreed that "things are coming" in the near future.
"I feel like we always get a little scared to give too much away, but planning is coming along, and we've got some things coming in the future," Joey explained.

"When we're ready to announce exactly when we definitely will. But yeah, it's definitely starting to take bigger steps, and we're excited about that."
But Joey and Kelsey -- who got engaged during The Bachelor's Season 28 finale, which aired in early 2024 -- confirmed they will not be following in The Golden Bachelor couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist's shoes with a live, televised wedding.
"That's our non-negotiable. We're not going to do it on-air," Kelsey noted, adding how fans already got to watch their love story unfold on TV.
Joey said while he has "nothing against" televised weddings, he'd prefer a "more intimate" celebration for the couple's "special day."
Joey also explained how he and Kelsey would like to have the freedom to "shape" the wedding in whatever they'd like it to be -- and in their "own time."

Kelsey elaborated how it will feel "good" to have the ceremony be about just the two of them.
"This will be for us. We'll show little glimpses for sure through social media and everything, so people [will feel] like they're a part of it, but I think that we just want it to be for us," Kelsey said.
As far as Joey's non-negotiable for the wedding goes, he said nothing is more important to him than "Kelsey staying happy."

The former Dancing with the Stars champion shared, "So whatever she wants for the wedding is what we're going to do."

Joey acknowledged how he and Kelsey have "talked about" their nuptials and envisioned their big day, even though they're not in a huge rush.
"It's funny... [We] realized that we both haven't put a lot of thought or planning into either of our weddings," Joey admitted.
"We never really thought about this stuff. So this is kind of the fun part as we're all learning it together and yeah, we're going to make our dream wedding as a couple, which is exciting."
In January, Kelsey told People that she's "really excited" to marry Joey but didn't want to get the ball rolling right away on wedding planning.
"Because we got engaged so fast, we got engaged in two months. So we want to really take our time still getting to know each other and be really serious about the wedding, and we don't want it to be a stressful thing," Kelsey shared.

"We want to be able to enjoy the process of picking out the things that matter most to us in our wedding."
Joey admitted on a May episode of Isaac Rochell's "I'll Ask" YouTube show that it wasn't "all sunshine and rainbows" after his The Bachelor engagement aired.
Joey explained how he and Kelsey "always say" that they "dated in reverse."
"We knew everything about each other on a deep level [and] we knew that we had similar life goals," the former tennis instructor explained at the time.
"We felt like there was something here that was worth striving toward, but I didn't even know how she was as a roommate. We didn't even live [together]."

Around that same time, Kelsey told Sports Illustrated Swimsuit that she and Joey were aiming to tie the knot in Spring 2027.
"I definitely want our wedding to be pretty timeless," Kelsey shared this past spring. "I want it to be able, in 30 or 40 years, to look like it could be done then."
