Stranger Things’ Mason Dye Announces June 2026 Beachside Wedding with Carmen Joiner
Stranger Things actor Mason Dye confirmed his engagement to longtime love Carmen Joiner.
Hi, I’m Elena West and this is your moment to see how two devoted hearts transformed a classic romance into a celebration that will echo for a lifetime. What happened on Valentine’s Day wasn’t just a proposal—it was a game-changing revelation in the love story of a Netflix star and his partner of nearly five years.
On February 14, Mason Dye got down on one knee at a serene lakeside spot and asked Carmen Joiner to marry him. The couple shared the intimate moment in a joint Instagram post on February 15, capturing the precise second Dye presented the ring, their joyful kiss, and Carmen flashing her new sparkler for fans around the world. “Here’s to forever,” Carmen captioned the series of photos that made headlines and inspired hundreds of congratulatory messages.
People Magazine confirms they plan to say “I do” on June 7, 2026 at the Wychmere Beach Club in Massachusetts—the very venue where their engagement photos were taken this summer. “When we started planning the wedding, we knew we wanted a destination in a fun place since our friends and family were from all over the states,” Carmen told People on August 7. “We also wanted something that felt coastal and romantic, something on the water, and somewhere all of our friends and family would be excited to visit.” Her words are stamped with intention and vision—core principles for any relationship ready to level up.
Their July 26 Instagram carousel gave a sneak peek of those dreamy beachside photos by Rebecca Caston Guay Photography. Carmen couldn’t hide her excitement: “Still feels like a dream. June 7th can’t come soon enough,” she wrote. Meanwhile, Mason’s Stranger Things co-star Caleb McLaughlin chimed in with “Woah congrats!” and Bachelor alum Rachel Kirkconnell added, “I love you guys so muchhhh,” proving that when you align purpose and passion, your community rallies behind you.
