Stacey Solomon has admitted she's already started the search for her prefect wedding dress ahead of her big day in July - but fears she'll have to skip the traditional hen do and honeymoon.
The Loose Women start is planning to tie the knot with her fiance Joe Swash this summer after he proposed over Christmas.
Stacey has started looking around for wedding dresses, but has to wait for non-essential retail to open next month before she can try any of them on.
She's confessed she's excited about getting going with the wedding planning, but fears she may not be able to actually try her dress on until just before the big day.
In an interview with Notebook magazine, she explained: "We've found the photographer, the venue and the food comes with the venue.
"I've started having online consultations for a dress and I'm sending the boys' measurements for suits.
"If I don’t start now and get into the swing, I don't know if I’ll be able to keep up."
The telly star - who recently bought her dream home with Joe - explained: "That would be so nice... to be able to try on a wedding dress. Imagine, I might not be able to try it on until the day!
"I've sent some ideas but the lady recommended trying different stuff on. She said, 'The things you think will suit you will end up being the things you hate.'
She took my measurements and said when she sees me she’ll pull a lot of stuff out then I'll decide on the shape and the style."
Stacey is mum to three sons Zachary, 12, and Leighton, eight, from previous relationships, and 22-month-old Rex, with Joe.
She also fears there will be certain elements she's going to have to postpone until 2021.
She added she's keeping her fingers crossed that the wedding can still go ahead, and admitted she doesn't mind skipping the hen do and honeymoon - as long as her family and friends can be there to see her get married.
The telly star went on: "We're just hoping it goes ahead. There's certain family we really want to be there, so we’re hoping in July it can go ahead and those people can be there, and won't end up missing it...
"Getting that email saying you've got the slot was like, 'Oh my God, it actually could happen.'
"For the first time it's like, 'I could be getting married.' I'm going to have a husband – how weird is that?
"I'm so excited. I'm nervous, as I've never been anyone’s wife. I don’t know if I’m going to change my name but Joe doesn't mind either way. I actually can’t wait. I can’t wait to marry him and be his wife."
She added of the hen do: "I don’t think I’ll be able to have one. If I can, I think my sister [Jemma] will try to organise something locally, safely.
"But hen nights, honeymoons, me and Joe said we can always do that next year if we can't this year. All that's important is that we have those
special people there.
"We just don’t know how much time we’ll have left with those special people."
