Joel Kim Booster, John-Michael Sudsina Have 1 Specific Wedding Goal

Joel Kim Booster and his partner John-Michael Sudsina want their wedding to be remembered as the party of a lifetime.

During a recent appearance on the Grindr Presents: Who’s the A——? with Katya podcast, the 37-year-old actor, writer and producer shared that one of the main reasons why he and Sudsina decided to get married is because they want to “throw a party” — and an epic one at that.

“Yes, I could throw any kind of party I want, and it doesn’t have to be connected to the wedding,” he admitted to host Katya. “But I do want it to be a production. And I’m in a place in my life where I’m lucky enough where I can make it a production.”

When it comes to celebrating the big day, however, the couple’s would-be guests will have to be a bit patient. “I think it’s probably going to be one or two years [until the wedding], only because of the nature of my work. It’s very hard to plan in advance for something,” Booster explained.

The Fire Island star also opened up about his relationship with Sudsina, sharing how the pair — who announced their engagement in August 2024 — had a revelatory moment during a deep conversation one night.

“My assumption for so long was I would meet someone, I would fall in love with that person. I would be in love with that person forever and that’s that. But we talked one night and we realized that in the three years that we’ve been together, both of us have changed in a lot of different ways,” Booster explained.

“And what I realized, and what both of us realized, is that I’m so excited to fall in love with the next iteration of him as well. And then the iteration after that, and our joke is that iteration four will suck, but we’ll ride it out until iteration five,” he continued, noting that the conversation opened the two up to the idea of marriage.

“Once we realized that it wasn’t about stasis, it was about making a commitment to grow together and putting in the work to make sure that we maintain that, I think it was like, well, why not just pull the trigger and make these promises in front of our friends — like, we’re going to work so that you don’t end up in another one of these f—— things,” Booster said.

The Loot star said he believes Sudsina — whom he met through mutual friends during a trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico — is “endgame” for him.

“So I do think that we want to make that statement in front of our friends,” he noted. “When you tell all your friends, you’re doing something as a way of accountability to actually do it.”

In addition to throwing a wedding, the pair hope to start a family, Booster revealed.

“Part of the reason we decided to get married at the time, and this is now a little up in the air, is we decided we wanted to have kids,” Booster told Katya, noting, “I was not super interested in kids for a long time, but being in love with this person, I am sort of like we would collaborate on something really cool. I think we’d make something really awesome together.”
