"I laugh at myself when I hear myself say that because I was never going to be that person. I was like, 'No, you do one dress.' And now I'm like, 'Oh my gosh, could I have four or five?'"

Kaitlyn and Jason will be tying the knot in Nashville, TN, at the end of this year.
Kaitlyn said ideally she'd like a dress for walking down the aisle, a reception dress, and then a party dress to dance in late at night at her wedding.
"I like when people make unique little touches to their wedding day," noted Kaitlyn, who launched a wedding-day prep collection with Amazon Handmade.
Since Kaitlyn has been waiting for years for her big day to arrive, said she has been seeking advice from friends on how to "stay present" at the wedding.
The Bachelor 17 couple Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici apparently told Kaitlyn and Jason not to let go of each other's hands at the reception.
"I think we've got to make a point to stick together through that whole night," Kaitlyn shared.
"Because, right, everyone's there to celebrate us and our love, so we have to remember to be in the moment by staying together."
Back in June, Kaitlyn playfully called Jason, a former Seattle banker, "Mr. Spreadsheet" as they were planning their nuptials.
At the time, Kaitlyn and her fiance were laying the groundwork for an "over the top" New Year's Eve wedding to ring in 2023.

The Season 11 The Bachelorette star also revealed in June how she'd like to try for a baby immediately after getting married.
"I think we're enjoying the engagement and we'll do a little fast-track to fam [after exchanging vows]," she said, adding how she'd love to have three children.
The Season 29 Dancing with the Stars champion and Jason got engaged in May 2021.
Kaitlyn got the ball rolling on her wedding plans before leaving for the Dancing with the Stars 2022 winter tour in mid-January.
"I was like, 'Jason, we got to lock down a wedding planner because once I'm gone, I'm not gonna be able to do much and I'm not too picky about things,'" Kaitlyn told Entertainment Tonight at the time.
"I'll let the wedding planner, as long as I trust them, do their thing, so hopefully that will make it easier."

"I just know that basically as soon as we can get the ball rolling, I want it to be a Great Gatsby-like, black-tie event -- very glam, which is so opposite of what I thought I would want," Kaitlyn revealed in June 2021.

"Because four years ago, I would have been like, 'I want bohemian. I want it farm-style.' I just keep changing my mind."
Kaitlyn had previously been engaged to her The Bachelorette 11 winner Shawn Booth, but the pair never seemed to get deep into wedding planning and announced their split in November 2018 after three years of dating.
Kaitlyn first met Jason while taping an episode of her "Off the Vine" podcast in October 2018, and he took her out on their first date in January 2019.
Jason -- who finished Becca Kufrin's The Bachelorette season in third place in 2018 -- moved from his place in Seattle to live with Kaitlyn in Nashville in June 2019. The couple has since adopted two dogs together.
Prior to starring on The Bachelorette, Kaitlyn failed to win Chris Soules' heart on The Bachelor's nineteenth season.
