Even though the duo have only been engaged a short time, details of the wedding plans are already known. Bindi recently revealed that it is her hope for her younger brother Robert, 15, to walk her down the aisle. “That’s something that I really want to do. I’m always so grateful that Robert is there, and he has been such a big part of my life and he’s always stepped up and been the one to give me a hug when I need it and encourage me forward in life,” the Dancing With the Stars alum told ET.
“So he will definitely be the one to walk me down the aisle when the time comes, and I think that will make it really special,” she continued. “I think that’s what dad would have wanted as well.” So sweet!
We simply can’t wait to see Bindi and Chandler’s special day!
