DWTS Pro Ties the Knot 1 Year After Getting Engaged

Another “Dancing With the Stars” pro is married. On Saturday, July 27, Koko Iwasaki tied the knot with longtime beau, Kiki Nyemchek, in Oregon. The couple shared the news on Instagram.

“Hands down this was the best weekend of our lives. We can say with confidence that we have the best family and friends in the entire world. There is so much to say and we are so overwhelmed with the outpour of love & support we have received! Thank yous just don’t even express an ounce of how much we truly feel inside. To all the guests who traveled from all around the world to be with us, it means more than you will ever know. Your presence was needed and felt,” Iwasaki captioned an Instagram post on July 29.

Iwasaki and Nyemchek first met in 2017 when they were both competing on season 14 of “So You Think You Can Dance.” They took their romance public a year later.

“I wanted to wait for a special time to post this picture or even post a picture of us in general, but then I thought about how silly that is, especially cause every day with you is so special,” Iwasaki wrote on Instagram in April 2018. “My love … We screeeaaam of laughter together. We order 6 meals minimum at any restaurant and eat ALL of it,” she added.

Nyemchek proposed in November 2022.
