Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi recently got engaged, which means wedding planning is officially underway. After initially meeting via Instagram DMs, the young couple went public with their romance two years ago. In April, Bongiovi, who’s the son of singer Jon Bon Jovi and Dorothea Hurley, popped the big question to the “Stranger Things” star with a gorgeous engagement ring. “I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, I want ’em all,” Brown captioned their engagement announcement, quoting lyrics from Taylor Swift’s “Lover.”
Two months after Bongiovi proposed, the pair celebrated with an intimate engagement party with family and friends. On June 1, Brown’s hairstylist and makeup artist offered a glimpse at the soirée on Instagram, sharing photos of the couple posing next to a “Mr. and Mrs. Bongiovi” sign.
“I feel it’s important to keep those things, those small precious moments in life, really close to your chest.”
Aside from a few loved-up snaps on social media, Brown and Bongiovi have kept their relationship relatively private and continue to do so as they prepare to say “I do.” In an interview with WWD published on Aug. 14, Brown said wedding planning thus far is “so fun” and “such an exciting time in my life,” though she didn’t divulge any specific details. She shared her intention to keep plans under wraps, “just because there are only so many moments in life that you get only once.” She added, “To have everyone’s opinions and eyes looking at that just feels unnatural to me. So I feel it’s important to keep those things, those small precious moments in life, really close to your chest.”
While details of their wedding remain scarce, keep reading for everything we do know about the couple’s upcoming nuptials so far.

Millie Bobby Brown’s Wedding Dress
Though it’s unclear whether Brown has said “yes” to the dress yet, it sounds like she may be eyeing a minimalist wedding gown. In her interview with WWD, she said her style has seen many phases, but she’s now “landed in this very simple, soft fabric [stage].” “Everything is very laid back and simple and easy and on the go,” she shared. Perhaps her wedding dress will reflect the actor’s current sartiorial direction.
