Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin have always intended to have a formal, religious wedding for family and friends after they got married in a New York City courthouse last September. For months, they struggled to commit to a time, sending out three different Save the Date invitations before putting wedding planning altogether on hiatus. Now, Us Weekly reports, the Biebers are ready to start planning again—slowly—and with a vague but meaningful date in mind.
"They’ve talked about possibly having their wedding closer to the anniversary of their marriage, in September," a source told the outlet. But truth be told, Baldwin and Bieber don't see their wedding as their number one priority. Bieber's health is. The singer started getting treatment for depression in February.
Baldwin has been a big supporter throughout. "She’s not dealing with her own issues, so she can give so much to Justin and be here for him," a source told Us. "He feels very safe with her. They love working out together and being able to focus on health."
Last week, People ran its own report about why Bieber and Baldwin's second wedding isn't high priority for them. Its source echoed what Us Weekly's said: that health comes first and Baldwin is committed to being there for the Biebs.
“Hailey keeps supporting him. They will still have a wedding when they feel they are ready,” People's source said. “The most important thing for them is that Justin is mentally healthy.”
Baldwin and Bieber have started wearing wedding bands though, as the one-year anniversary of their dating approaches. Bieber showed his off on Instagram this weekend, while Baldwin was photographed out in hers. Initially, a source told People after their courthouse wedding that “they are not gonna wear wedding rings until after their [formal] wedding. It will be in the next few months.” But nine months of being married with no firm date for that religious wedding clearly changed their minds.
