When asked when his nuptials to Joy, 24, will take place, Viall revealed, “Early-ish next year,” before adding, “In fact, Natalie is actually currently dress shopping. Her mom and sister and friends are in town. So that’s what she’s doing right now.”

“So far, so good. Yeah. I mean, we’re still in the early stages of planning,” he said. “We’ve had a really busy year, a really great year.”
Added Viall: “We just got back from Wisconsin at the lake house and trying to enjoy that. We’re kind of starting to get into the wedding planning. It’s been fun, but so far not super stressful. The decisions we’ve made are so far easy, and we’re just excited to see where it goes.”

Viall and Joy werefirst linkedin 2020, but they didn’t start sharing their relationship publicly until 2021.
As their bond continued to progress in a more serious direction, Viall said he “wouldn’t be in a relationship with” Joyif he “didn’t think it was possible” to marry her someday.
He then revealed on thePEOPLE Every Daypodcast last year that"everyone’s situation is different" when it comes to marriage.
“I think sometimes timelines can be a little bit dangerous about, you know, setting false expectations and reaching to a certain timeline and all of a sudden … [you] have other priorities,” he explained. “I just kind of tell people to just be careful about setting timelines. If they wanna set a time, it’s great, just make sure it’s mutual.”

Back in January, Viall planned anover-the-top romantic proposal, getting down on one knee in a private warehouse with 200 candles setting the mood for his lady.
Joy was then treated to a surprise engagement party with her and Viall’s families and closest friends, who flew in for the occasion.
“Walking into that party and seeing my mom there, I lost it,” Joy recalled on her future husband’s podcast of the emotional experience. “I was just so filled with joy and happiness. All the people who flew out and came together to celebrate us was such a beautiful thing that I just couldn’t control my emotions. Throughout that entire party, I’m just screaming and I’m so happy.”
“This is how I always wanted to feel,” Viall added. “It’s how I’ve always imagined I would feel… I am deliriously happy in life. Truly.”
