It’s been a while since we’ve seen them out-and-about, but Jennifer Hudson and her reality-star-fiance David Otunga have set an official wedding date.

After a three-year engagement and the birth of their adorable baby boy David, the singer says they’re finally ready to make big plans for a ceremony.

“I’ve always had a [wedding] date! Just haven’t told anybody! So it’s set!” J-Hud recently told In Touch at a recent Self Magazine event.

Like any bride-to-be, the singer says she is pumped for her big day. “I mean, every girl is!” she said. “I’ve been through a lot in my life and I’m just trying to take it one step at a time. I’m one of those girls like, ‘Okay, let me get used to this right here! Give me a second!’ ”

Congratulations, Jennifer – we can’t wait to see you strut down that aisle!
