The Bachelorette’s engaged DeAnna Pappas and Jesse Csincsak are dreaming big when it comes to life and love. But small when it comes to weddings.

“I think we want to enjoy ourselves and our day versus having to talk to a bunch of people all day long. So, we’re dwindling it down,” said the bride.

That’s a surprisingly grounded view from a reality TV star. Similarly, with a wedding date of May 9, the couple says they haven’t done much planning.

“I don’t know how people plan a wedding,” DeAnna Pappas said.

“I know what color I want my dresses to be, and bridesmaids’ dresses. He wants a cheesecake. And that’s about as far as we’ve gotten.”

“Our relationship obviously is our main focus right now, and then we have the wedding on top of that,” Jesse Csincsak added.

“It’s not this huge thing everyday. We’re both so busy. We don’t have time right now to plan a wedding, and we’re planning a wedding, which is crazy.”

As for The Bachelor stars on the wedding invitee list, you can count ex-Bachelorette Trista Rehn and host Chris Harrison among them.

“I’m friends with a lot of the guys from the same season I was on, Jason Mesnick being one of them,” said Csincsak, referring to his former Bachelorette cast-mate, and the future star of The Bachelor, in an interview with People.

“[Chris] Harrison is a great guy. Trista and Ryan [Sutter] have been super-influential to us. We’re psyched to have all of them there.”
