Sean Lowe was eliminated during week 8 of ABC's Dancing with the Stars on Tuesday and later admitted he looks forward to taking the well-deserved break to plan his wedding.

Lowe joined season 16 of DWTS one week after the season finale of his last reality show, The Bachelor, aired in March.

"It's nice now I'll have a little bit of a break, I can take a deep breath," Lowe told Us Weekly.

The former Texas insurance agent shared what he and his fiance, Catherine Giudice, plan to do now that he is no longer on DWTS.

"We'll definitely take a vacation, relax, spend a lot of good quality time with her because Dancing has consumed my life these past few months," Lowe said. "We're going to do a couple of weekend getaways and then we talked about doing one big vacation," he explained. "We're definitely going to take advantage of the summer!"

Lowe also said being on two reality shows back-to-back was "a lot to handle." He confirmed that he and Giudice will now focus on planning their wedding, which they said in previous interviews will be televised for ABC. He said his fiancé will take care of most of the details for their upcoming nuptials and shared his only request to her.

"I'm a smart man, I know the wedding is all about the woman, so I'm going to let her take care of most of it and when she wants my opinion, she'll ask for it," he told E! News. "The only thing I've told her is I want it to be a big party. I want to have fun, family and friends coming together to celebrate, so I think we're going to accomplish that."

Lowe's DTWS dance partner, Peta Murgatroyd, revealed one plan for the couple's wedding. She revealed last month that she is currently teaching her partner to waltz for his wedding day.

"We have talked about me working with them and choreographing the wedding waltz," Murgatroyd told Hollywood Life. "They are totally down for that!"

"(Giudici) has started planning," Murgatroyd added about the ceremony. "I'll be there."

Murgatroyd was asked if she had any knowledge of their wedding date and she answered, "I keep asking but they haven't set anything yet!"

Dancing with yhe Stars host Tom Bergeron later revealed that the couple have set a wedding date. According to Bergeron, the big day is set for the month of August of this year.

Bergeron said on air, "My understanding is that the marriage ceremony of Sean and Catherine [Giudici] is scheduled to be broadcast on ABC in August."

Lowe must have been unaware that Bergeron would slip the news - when the show's cameras turned to the reality star, he looked shocked and immediately looked at Murgatroyd for a reaction.

Watch Bergeron reveal Lowe's wedding date news on DTWS season 16 at the 7:55 mark here.
