Wedding dress designer
"Vera Wang is definitely making my dress. The wedding is 4/4/20, I leaked it. We haven't pinpointed the silhouette yet," Taraji tells Access Hollywood.
Bridal party
"No bridal party, I'm not a bridezilla. Please, I just want to say my vows in front of the people that I love, eat good food and have fun," Taraji tells Stephen Colbert at his late night show.
Style of the ceremony
The Hidden Figures star revealed she wants their ceremony to be an intimate affair with just their closest loved ones there to witness their vows. She says it's also vital that the food is top notch and they have a great DJ.
Venue
Taraji will be heading off to California's wine country to tie the knot.
Taraji also admits the area means a lot to the couple because it's where Kelvin first told her he had fallen in love with her during a wine tasting trip. The couple is considering an Italian honeymoon as they love wine, pasta and a good siesta.
