Anderson also shared some tidbits about what she envisions for her big day.
“I want the wedding to be a part of both of us. I know a lot of times the guys kind of let the lady take over, but I don’t know [about that]. I want it to be a representation of both of us equally,” Anderson explained.
She also noted, “I definitely want our wedding to be pretty timeless. I want it to be able, in 30 or 40 years, to look like it could be done then.”
Since falling in love while filming season 28 of “The Bachelor,” Anderson and Graziadei have only grown stronger as a couple.

“The Bachelor” winner also told Sports Illustrated, “Joey was always really good at reassuring me, especially right after the show, and proving to me that he’s there for me and that he is going to do whatever it takes for us to work.”
