Anderson raved about her wedding plans at the inaugural TikTok Awards, which was held on December 18 at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. She revealed that she and Graziadei were excited for the new year because of their upcoming nuptials.

"I'm really looking forward to solidifying wedding venues this year. We've looked at a couple already, and super excited for that," Anderson told PEOPLE in an interview. She added that she wouldn't be a difficult bride to work with, as her non-negotiable was the couple's happiness.

Anderson echoed similar sentiments at Heidi Klum's Halloween Party in New York City on October 31. At the time, she declared that 2026 would be a year of wedding planning for her and Graziadei, with the purchase of her wedding gown at the top of her to-do list.

The Media Personality Wants Joey Graziadei To Be Involved In Their Wedding Plans

While speaking to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit in May, Anderson got candid about the type of wedding she envisioned for her and Graziadei. "I definitely want our wedding to be pretty timeless. I want it to be able, in 30 or 40 years, to look like it could be done then," she shared.

Anderson added that she did not want to be solely in charge of the wedding plans because she hoped her union with Graziadei would be a part of them. "I want it to be a representation of both of us equally," she said. On that note, the lovebirds weren't rushing to say their vows.

The entertainer explained that she and Graziadei had initially envisioned a spring 2026 wedding; however, they soon realized that wouldn't work. Anderson stressed that they did not want to rush or feel overwhelmed; as a result, they were now aiming for a spring 2027 event.

The Lovebirds Are Enjoying Their Engagement Era

During her interview, Anderson told the outlet that she was enjoying her fiancée era while growing her career in the fashion and modeling industry. She noted that she and Graziadei valued their independence and did not need to be together 24/7.

"I trust him fully. He trusts me fully. If I want to go on a girls' trip, vice versa, he wants to go on a boys' trip—we're very supportive in that as well," Anderson claimed. She also revealed that they prioritized spending as much time together amid their busy schedules by embracing each other's hobbies.

In January, Anderson admitted that she and Graziadei weren't in a rush to say their vows after their whirlwind engagement. She noted it was vital for them to get to know each other better and carefully plan their wedding so it would be a joyful process rather than overwhelming.

Kelsey Anderson Got A Special 'DWTS' Tribute From Her Fiancée

During an episode where contestants had to choreograph a dance routine to honor those who held a special place in their hearts, Graziadei chose to pay homage to his fiancée. Anderson raved about the tribute ahead of her beau's performance in an interview.

The social media personality declared that she loved all of Graziadei's performances so far; however, she couldn't help but look forward to his tribute routine. "It's very special, honestly," Anderson said, adding that the dance would be "extra special" to her.

Graziadei's decision to dedicate his performance to Anderson wasn't the first time he honored his fiancée in the dance competition. The TV personality previously revealed that he made a special request to showrunners ahead of season 33's premiere.

According to Graziadei, when he was asked to participate in the dance competition, his first thought was to leave no room for doubt or misunderstanding in his relationship with Anderson. As a result, he begged to be partnered with someone "in a successful and healthy relationship."

That request saw Graziadei getting paired with professional dancer Jenna Johnson, who is married to fellow "DWTS" dancer Val Chmerkovskiy.

Contrary to his expectations of the partnership, some fans still queried Anderson about the duo's frequent touching during their performances, but she shut down these unsavory speculations.
