Riley went on to explain that her mother is an event planner and she has had the chance to be a flower girl many times in past weddings. But when it comes to one thing that she says has to be on point -- it’s the music.
“You've got to have a bangin' DJ,” Riley says. “And I know so many artists. I want both a DJ and a band. You're celebrating bringing two lives together, celebrating love, celebrating a union. So the music, and the party, and the food trucks. It has to be hype. It has to be fun!”
Riley told fans about her engagement to Black in November.
“[The engagement] definitely took me by surprise, but he's wonderful,” she tells the outlet. “"He's a great man. My family loves him. Obviously, I love him.”
“It was always important to me to marry my friend and have a great partnership. And he's definitely both,” she continued. “And I'm just really excited. It's a little weird because we can't really plan anything [because of COVID], but I'd marry him in the backyard — I don't even need an elaborate wedding like that. But I do need the dress. It can be me, him, and the dress. That I need!”
