Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz's big day is almost here.

As the longtime couple continues production on Vanderpump Rules season five, they have begun their pre-wedding festivities and at the end of last month, they traveled to New Orleans with their co-stars, including Stassi Schroeder, Scheana Marie and Ariana Madix.

"I'm getting married this August," Maloney revealed to E! News weeks ago. "I have a dress. I got the dress before we picked a date."

"We have a location, we have a date and so now we can really get into the fun part of planning of like colors and who's going to be my bridesmaids and all of that," she continued.

Although Maloney is enjoying the wedding planning process, Schwartz appears to be a bit more uptight.

"He basically said, 'We don't need flowers. We don't need food. Let's just get really good music," she joked. "That's not really how it works."

"I love a vintage vibe — lace — and nothing poofy," Maloney said of her wedding gown during an interview with Us Weekly months ago. "I will stick to the ivory and white family of colors for sure."

"I have been planning for this since I was a little girl," Maloney continued of her upcoming wedding. "I have family and friends to help along the way. Scheana [Marie Shay, Vanderpump Rules costar and friend] has definitely been a beacon of inspiration since she just got married last year. [She's] shed a lot of light on the cost of things and I'm already getting nervous about that!"
