"My fiance and I are getting married twice. So the way we planned it is a bit unconventional," Juliana began in a recent video she uploaded via TikTok.
"The dream has always been to get married in Italy, and so we're making that happen! But we are planning that to be in 2028, in September, [which] is my favorite month to go to Italy... My big fat Italian wedding is in Italy in 2028!"

Juliana, however, said she's aware that it's "a big ask" to expect loved ones to travel for her Italian destination wedding in September 2028.

"I have a huge family. Michael [also] has a large family and we have a bazillion friends," she acknowledged.
"For the people that can't come to Italy -- because selfishly, we don't want to wait that long to be, like, married -- we are going to do a church ceremony at my local church in Newton, MA, in 2027 -- in May!"
Juliana insisted that the couple isn't trying "to go balls to the wall" with two over-the-top weddings.
"We just want the church ceremony to feel like the people who can't come to Italy still get to celebrate it," Juliana noted.
Juliana said she's eyeing "a big villa" in Sorrento, Italy for her big day.

"We could maybe have 20 to 30 people stay [there] for the weekend," she shared.
"But back to Boston, my initial idea was if we can send out Save the Dates by the end of the year and include the [May 2027] information on there, as well as an RSVP for that, that means we need to have our reception planned."
Juliana apparently hasn't decided between booking a venue with a lot of open space or a restaurant.
But Juliana made it clear she'd love to have passed hors d'oeuvres, an open bar and a DJ.
"I just don't want to do a sit down [dinner] or speeches or a first dance. This May wedding is to fulfill my desire to get married in a church as well as to make sure everyone feels included," Juliana clarified.

Juliana also said she'll probably hire a videographer, a violinist or cello, and a photographer.
"And florals, I don't want to go crazy," she concluded, before asking for recommendations. "So help me get married!"

Juliana announced her engagement to Michael following months of engagement -- and even secret marriage -- rumors in August.
"Everywhere, anywhere & now always with you, Michael Fiore," Juliana captioned a carousel of Michael's floral-filled proposal by the ocean.

"Found the sweetest kind of love my Nonna always taught me about. Found my always. FIOREVER BABY!"
Michael popped the question near the rocky Cape Cod shore on a bed of rose petals, surrounded by a semicircle of hydrangeas and other flowers with white, pink and purple hues.
Michael got down on one knee and presented Juliana with a round-cut diamond on August 4, just over a year after they met, People reported.
"It's such an incredible feeling that I'd love to relive every day, but now we move the excitement to planning a wedding and a life together," Michael told the magazine of the couple's engagement.
She added, "It wasn't just that we were engaged, it was the overwhelming peace of knowing that the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with wanted the very same thing. Michael and I have always been incredibly intentional about our relationship."
The proposal came months after fans had begun speculating that the pair was secretly engaged or had tied the knot.
Juliana had posted photos of herself trying on wedding dresses, saying that "vows" were on her mind, and Michael had already been calling Juliana "wifey" on social media.
When fellow The Bachelor alum Ashley Iaconetti brought up the marriage speculation during a May episode of "The Ben & Ashley I: Almost Famous Podcast," Juliana giggled and didn't say a word.
Michael, who joined Juliana for the interview, said, "There's a reason the cameras are raised and you can't see anybody's hands."
Ashley therefore slyly noted, "So you guys are married, okay."
Juliana refused to "confirm or deny" her relationship status at the time.

Juliana said, "It's just a matter of being comfortable with what we share because, I don't know, I like our life and I like sharing parts of it when I feel ready."
In addition, Juliana recently moved from Boston to New York -- something she never thought she'd do because she's so close to her family in Massachusetts -- to live with Michael.
Juliana said she met Michael in East Hampton in July 2025, and they soft launched their romance in January 2026.
Juliana shared at the time, "I said I needed to escape seasonal depression so he flew me to Florida & took me to the spa at the St. Regis. Never settle ladies."
Juliana revealed on "The Ben & Ashley I: Almost Famous Podcast" that Michael had been "blowing" up her phone "for three months straight" before she agreed to go out with him.
Juliana apparently met Michael one month after she and The Bachelor's Season 29 star Grant Ellis -- who popped the question to Juliana on his season finale that aired in March 2025 -- announced their split in June 2025 via separate Instagram postings.
"First and foremost, I would like to thank Bachelor Nation. If I did not go on the show, I would not have been invited to the event that I met my boyfriend at," Juliana revealed via TikTok in late February.
She added at the time, "It's just so wild that I did end up in an engagement that wasn't the love that I was seeking. I read a quote that said, 'I was running away from love when love met me,' I don't know, I think that's just so cute and beautiful, and that's kind of the way that I'm looking at all of this."
Juliana then revealed that Michael was "the one" in a Q&A session via Instagram in March.
"He never makes me feel like I have to go through the highs & lows without him," Juliana gushed at the time, adding how they had honesty in their communication and worked through issues well.
She continued, "He also hears me when I tell him I may NEED to go through some things alone. He takes time to listen to what I say... At the end of the day he'll always be there for me and want the best for me. And vice versa."

The Bachelor finale in March 2025 had shown Grant appearing to still be undecided between Juliana and his other Final 2 bachelorette, Litia Garr, only minutes before the Final Rose Ceremony.
When Grant dumped Litia, she complained about how she felt completely blindsided and devastated.
Litia claimed on After the Final Rose that Grant had called her The One and confirmed they were getting engaged the night before the Final Rose Ceremony.
Litia proceeded to throw shade at Grant on social media once the show wrapped, and she even insinuated that Grant probably picked Juliana as his winner because she allegedly slept with him in the Fantasy Suite. (Juliana denied the allegation afterwards).
Juliana said Grant's "lack of accountability" in his breakup with Litia sparked an argument two days after they filmed After the Final Rose.
This argument was the beginning of the end of their relationship, according to Juliana, who stuck it out a little bit longer but dumped Grant in May 2025.
