Stoked about the wedding of Eat Bulaga hosts Vic Sotto and Pauleen Luna? Before they officially become one, here are a few things you should know:

1. Pauleen Luna didn’t turn into bridezilla.

Although she’s detailed-oriented, Pauleen didn’t go crazy during her wedding preparations. Her wedding organizer, Rita Neri, even lauded her for how composed she is.

2. The Dabarkads will be part of the entourage.

Tito Sotto and Joey de Leon are principal sponsors, Ruby Rodriguez is the Matron of Honor, Anjo Yllana, Wally Bayola, Jose Manalo, and Paolo Ballesteros are groomsmen and Ryzza Mae Dizon is a flower girl.

3. Pauleen Luna’s gown was made by the ‘designer to the stars.’

Celebrated Filipino designer Francis Libiran was the one who designed Pauleen’s gown. His creations have been sashayed in the biggest runways in the country, and were even featured in ‘America’s Next Top Model.’

4. Vic picked their wedding date.

The groom picked January 30 because of his friends’ advice. “Meron akong hinahabol na bago mag-Chinese New Year. Hinahabol ko 'yung year of the sheep kasi nabasa ko nun at nasabi ng aking mga kaibigang Chinese na maganda raw mag-settle down sa year of the sheep,” he said.

5. Their motif is baby pink and taupe.

Pauleen wanted something easy on the eyes so she picked the color combination of baby pink and taupe. “Para masaya lang sa mata 'yung mga kulay,” she said.

6. Pia Wurtzbach will be there.

Miss Universe 2015 Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach is one of the best friends of Pauleen Luna. The beauty queen, although busy with her responsibilities, wouldn’t miss the event for the world.
 
7. They’re getting married in Vic’s parish.

Although they kept the church’s name confidential, the couple revealed that it was where they would sometimes go to mass together. “[Vic] is a parishioner there. Ako sumasama na rin ako [minsan]. Dun kami nag-ch-church as much as we can ng Linggo,” Pauleen shared.

8. Vic proposed to Pauleen in the bathroom.

The proposal was completely unexpected for Pauleen, all the more because they were in the bathroom when it happened. Vic just came from a trip and his pasalubong for Pauleen was there. After giving it to her, he asked her to close her eyes and that was when he formally asked.

9. Their honeymoon will be in the Maldives.

As much as they want to go to Pauleen’s dream destination, Paris, they want to relax for their honeymoon instead of being on their feet throughout the trip. With that, they decided to fly to the beaches of Maldives.

10. They want to have a baby after the wedding.

Pauleen disclosed that she hopes to be blessed with a child soon. She also shared that she will not be doing as many soap operas so she can focus on being a wife to Vic.
