Charity was tasked with answering the most-searched questions about herself, or taking a shot if she preferred to keep things under wraps.

"I have made it my most [important] thing that I'm never sharing with the public [my wedding date]," Charity explained.

"So, you guys will know once wedding content starts coming out, but I was like, 'I don't think I want to share with the public the date,' just because, you know, people are crazy -- not in a good way -- but crazy."

Charity suggested that she and Dotun are going to have a pretty big guest list as "numerous Bachelor Nation people" will be attending.

And she added, "Dotun is Nigerian so we're doing, like, a cultural component of the ceremony, but obviously I am American, so the traditional American-wife version will be there as well."

Charity and Dotun got engaged in early 2023 although their engagement didn't air on The Bachelorette's Season 20 finale until August of that year.

Charity and Dotun celebrated the two-year anniversary of their engagement in May 2025.

Charity called Dotun her "protector" and "best friend" on social media at the time, as well as her "future hubby."

Dotun, for his part, wrote over romantic footage of the couple frolicking on a beach, "The butterfly effect is crazy."

Dotun explained how one of Charity's The Bachelorette bachelors had pulled out of the running last minute, allowing Dotun to join the Season 20 cast just two short weeks before filming commenced.

"I would've never met the love of my life, got engaged on national tv, and be here celebrating our two year anniversary," Dotun said, in part.

Dotun wrote alongside his post, "It started with a simple text and turned into a love of a lifetime. A real life butterfly effect. Grateful you all chose to be a part of our crazy journey."

Charity and Dotun said they got the ball rolling on wedding planning in April 2025 after admittedly putting the process "on pause" in 2024 because they felt overwhelmed.

"It's just now that we're back into it. It's been really enjoyable just really picking out those intimate details," Charity told Us Weekly at the time, adding how the couple wanted a "really intimate" wedding ceremony.

She added, "I think for us, it's really about narrowing down the guest list and how many people we want. There's been so many people that have just played a pivotal role in our love story, and we want everyone there."

Charity explained that she and Dotun intended on taking their time with the wedding because they didn't want to get stressed out.

Charity had competed on Zach Shallcross' The Bachelor season, which aired in early 2023, before she starred on The Bachelorette's 20th season. She also competed on Dancing with the Stars' 32nd season and made the finals.

Charity had revealed in 2024 that she and Dotun were planning to tie the knot in California in Fall 2025, followed by a second wedding ceremony in Nigeria for Dotun's family.

"[We want] to make sure that with wedding planning, it does not take away the joy that we have had in our engagement time and to continue to have so much to look forward to," Charity said at the time.

Charity also reiterated that planning two back-to-back weddings was going to be no simple feat.


"We're just trying to do things the right way and take it day by day and really enjoy our time with each other in this time period, so we're all good. Nothing to worry about," The Bachelor alum said in 2024.

As far as non-negotiables go for their wedding, Charity and Dotun -- who has been very involved in the planning, according to Charity -- said they'd love to have great music and cake at their reception.

Charity also previously revealed that she'll be wearing two different wedding gowns on her big day.

"One of my dresses is going to be custom, which is super fun! [I love] having the creativity to plan that out," she shared.
