“After lifetimes of love and loss and a whirlwind journey on The Golden Bachelor, Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist will walk down the aisle to begin their next chapter, happily ever after,” ABC wrote on The Golden Wedding invites posted to social after Turner’s finale.

So when and where are Golden Bachelor stars Gerry and Theresa getting hitched? Who’s attending? How can you watch The Golden Wedding live on ABC? And will The Golden Wedding be available for next-day streaming online? As always, Decider’s got all the details you desire.

Here’s everything to know about The Golden Wedding.

Once you’ve marked your calendars for Thursday, January 4, 2024, prepare to attend The Golden Wedding (aka sit on your couch and root for Gerry and Theresa’s late-in-life love story from afar) from 8:00 -10:00 p.m. ET.

Which Golden Bachelor Ladies And Franchise Alum Are Attending The Golden Wedding?

So who’s on the Golden Wedding guest list? Well, Bachelor franchise host Jesse Palmer is a given attendee. And we know that Golden Bachelor alum and Kris Jenner lookalike Susan Noles will be officiating the nuptials. But thanks to The Golden Bachelor‘s unexpectedly revealing social platforms, we also know several confirmed Golden Bachelor guests (Ellen, Faith, Sandra, and Kathy) plus a complete breakdown of Gerry and Theresa’s wedding party.

From Bachelor Nation, we know that Trista and Ryan Sutter, Jason and Molly Mesnick, Desiree and Chris Siegfried, Ben Higgins, Wells Adams, and more will be in attendance. And as far as The Golden Bachelor gals go, there’s an open invite out to everyone. “…I really do love all of these women. And I talked to all of them, and we really want all of them to come,” Nist told Decider during a December Zoom interview. “And how would we feel [about Faith and Leslie]? As long as they felt comfortable we would just be so thrilled if they came.” Turner agreed, adding, “Every one of them.”

Following a brief stay in the hospital for a bowel blockage, Golden Bachelor runner-up Leslie Fhima hopped on Instagram to update followers on her health and Golden Wedding status. “I’m definitely on the mend,” Fhima said in an Instagram Story posted on January 3. “I’m feeling so much better that now I get to go to the wedding and I can’t wait to support Gerry and Theresa in their beautiful day. And I know it’s gonna be really really amazing.”

We’ll have to tune in to see who else shows up to support Gerry and Theresa on their big day, but it seems like anything’s possible — even an appearance from the real Kris Jenner! “We would certainly welcome [Kris] and her entire family to that wedding. It would be a huge plus,” Turner told Decider. “We would love it. And I know Susan would get such a kick out of that. It would be so great,” Nist beamed. “Oh god, she’d go crazy if she was there,” Turner echoed.
