Less than two months before their dream wedding in Paris, Jennifer Williams is ready to celebrate love in her own way.

“I’m definitely not going to be traditional. I’m going to change my clothes three times on my wedding day,” Williams said exclusively We weekly while promoting a new season of VH1 Basketball wives. “We have a welcome party on a boat the day before, so I have a dress for that. Then the day after the wedding we have a brunch where I have no idea what I’m going to wear. I still have a lot of outfit planning to do, but my wedding day will be non-traditional.”

Engaged to Christian Gold Since August 2023, the reality star has been an open book about her love life since she was introduced at the launch of the Basketball wives Franchise in 2010.

Although she experienced heartbreak and divorce, Williams knew early on that Gold was special and different from all previous relationships.

“Honestly, from the day I met him, we had an instant connection and he really is my best friend,” she gushed to Us. “We were together maybe a month and I remember saying to myself, ‘I just want to be around him always.’ … He’s so considerate. He’s such a gentleman. He’s so mature. He’s just very respectful. He’s selfless and I just love all of those qualities about him.”

While viewers saw the couple playfully bickering over the wedding budget and number of guests to invite, Williams feels like she has “everything under control.” She’s also confident that this relationship will last, in part because she’s doing marriage counseling with Gold.

“It was actually Christian’s idea and I think it’s great because he’s very forward-thinking,” Williams explained. “Christian always says, ‘You can focus on the wedding. I’ll focus on the marriage.’ … There will always be disagreements or other issues, but I think if you have the right tools and you’re prepared for them, you can get through those things a lot easier.”

Williams says she plans to continue consulting with Gold once the two are husband and wife. For now, it’s just about putting the finishing touches on the upcoming wedding.

It is unclear whether the ceremony will be filmed for Basketball wives or VH1, Williams is confident that her fans will be able to continue to follow her search for true love.

“I want to give people hope that this could happen to you, too, so don’t give up,” she said. “I’ve definitely kissed a few frogs, but I would do it again. … You really have to keep your heart open. I really prayed to God to send me a person with certain qualities, and I think Christian definitely fits all of those criteria.”
