Mari Pepin Shares a Wedding Planning Update for Her & Kenny Braasch’s Big Day!
Planning for the big day!
Bachelor Nation fans saw Mari Pepin and Kenny Braasch find love and get engaged on Season 7 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Since then, the two have moved in together in Chicago and have been keeping fans updated with their lives on social media.
And now, Mari just stopped by the “Talking It Out with Bachelor Nation” podcast and gave an update on their wedding planning.
Mari shared that they took a wedding planning trip to Puerto Rico for inspiration.

She said, “We don’t have a date yet, but we went on a trip that was all about starting the wedding planning process and getting ideas. I have so many ideas now. I thought I had so many ideas on my Pinterest board, but now I know what colors and cakes and everything.”
And as for Kenny’s role, Mari said he’s involved, but he’s letting her make her vision come to life.
While the two haven’t set a date yet, they do have a few ideas sorted out, including where the wedding will take place.
Mari revealed, “We agreed that we will get married in Puerto Rico. I have a lot of family there — my grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, and everyone — so we are all going to go there for the wedding. We have narrowed it down to four venues now, but we haven’t gotten to see them all in person just yet. We’ve seen the pictures online, though.”

The Bachelor Nation star continued, “We want to do something outdoors for the ceremony and indoors for the party, and we want tropical themes. Like tropical flowers and nice and colorful. That’s where we’re at so far!”
So exciting!
We can’t wait for these two to walk down the aisle. They are going to make the most beautiful bride and groom!
