Ali then shared the news that she had chosen her 'tribe' who will be with her on her big day.
"Had so much fun putting these together and even more fun proposing to the gang," she shared on her Instagram Story.
It showed shopper bags decorated with each bridesmaid initial and featured personalised slippers and prosecco glasses as well as proposal scratch cards.
Ali's own wedding comes as her on-screen character also plans for her big day.
But for Emma, there's set to be heartbreak before she even walks down the aisle.
Next week viewers will see the barmaid discover the truth about her fiance, Curtis Delamere.
Corrie fans discovered last week that the Bistro waiter was lying about having a serious heart condition
Instead, Curtis, played by Sam Retford, suffers from factitious disorder - a serious mental disorder in which someone deceives others by appearing sick, by purposely getting sick or by self-injury.
Once Emma discovers the truth, viewers will be left wondering if Emma can forgive Curtis and if their Christmas wedding will go ahead.
