Bachelor in Paradise<\/em> <\/a>alums Mari Pepin-Solis<\/strong><\/a> and Kenny Braasch<\/strong><\/a> are married two years after their reality TV romance began.<\/p>\n

Pepin-Solis, 27, and Braasch, 41, tied the knot on Saturday, November 11, in Puerto Rico. The next morning, the bride showed off the couple\u2019s rings via her Instagram Story.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe morning after <\/span>\ud83d\ude0d<\/span>,\u201d she wrote on Sunday, November 12, sharing a snap of Braasch flashing his wedding band at breakfast.<\/p>\n

The couple met during season 7 of the ABC series, which aired in August 2021. While they quickly hit it off, the twosome hit a bump in the road when the former pageant queen said she wanted to keep her options open.<\/p>\n

Braasch went on dates with both Demi Burnett<\/strong><\/a> and Tia Booth<\/strong><\/a>, but he and his now-wife ultimately decided that their connection was the strongest by far. They got engaged<\/a> during the season finale in October 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cMari, you know, as soon as you came down the stairs and through the gates of Paradise<\/em>, I honestly was blown away about how beautiful you were. You know, I don\u2019t know if it was love at first sight, but it was definitely something \u2014 something I\u2019ve never felt before,\u201d the boy band manager said as he proposed in front of the cameras. \u201cAt the end of the day, we did go through a lot of real-life relationship stuff, and we were tested like no other couple in Paradise<\/em>, I think. \u2026 I\u2019m shaking. Mari, I am f\u2013king so in love with you. And I literally, like, I can\u2019t see my life without you. You\u2019re such an amazing woman that you\u2019ve changed my whole outlook on life. \u2026 Mari Pepin, will you marry me?\u201d<\/p>\n

Shortly after the finale aired, the then-fianc\u00e9s opened up about their future together<\/a> \u2014 and their wedding plans.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo we haven\u2019t set, like, a wedding date or anything yet, but I am going to be moving to Chicago in the next few months,\u201d Pepin-Solis exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em> in October 2021. \u201cSo that\u2019s our first step, and we did agree to get married in Puerto Rico, [which is] where I\u2019m from. So there\u2019s that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nearly two years later, the duo shared that they were \u201cmaking progress\u201d when it came to organizing their big day.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThere\u2019s something about Mexico that makes someone fall in love. While many get engaged on Bachelor in Paradise, only a handful have stayed together, gotten married and even had kids! Marcus Grodd and Lacy Faddoul were the first \u201csuccessful\u201d Bachelor in Paradise couple\u00a0after he popped the question during the 2014 finale of season 1. While [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a lot of fun to plan the wedding. I think we\u2019re still in the preliminary stages, we\u2019re still trying to source some vendors and get the major things booked,\u201d Pepin-Solis exclusively told Us<\/em> in February. \u201cWe\u2019ve done a lot of research and we\u2019ve just been having a good time with it. A lot of times wedding planning can be boring and stressful and as much as it is a lot of work, I think we\u2019re just trying to have a good time with it.\u201d<\/p>\n
