Reba McEntire is bringing fans along with her as she enters a new chapter in her life.

The country singer recently shared what she and fiancé Rex Linn have in store for their upcoming nuptials, and it might not come as such a surprise! 

From beloved animals to celebrity appearances, the couple’s plans are shaping up to be intriguing, and fans may be in for an event that lasts longer than a day! 

Reba McEntire Reveals She Won’t Have A ‘Wedding Day’

The country music icon gave insight into her upcoming nuptials on Entertainment Tonight, sharing that “it’s not going to be a wedding day. It’s going to have to be three or four days.” 

The question of whether the Hollywood couple had plans for a friend to sing at their wedding also came up. McEntire shared that due to the long list of celebrity friends they had, someone was bound to be offended at not being asked to sing, and so she was unsure how they would play out. 

The lovebirds are, however, yet to settle on a date. The former “The Voice” coach also opened up about the timeline of the ceremony, claiming that whenever they set a date, Linn would get a job, or they would get back into the third season of “Happy Place,” which the couple co-stars in. 

Nevertheless, the 71-year-old promises that their wedding will be a “very unusual event” as the pair plans to tie the knot surrounded by their multiple animals. 

“Well, see, not only do we have granddogs, we have long-horned steers, we have donkeys, we have horses, and dogs,” McEntire shared. 

When the host jokingly asked if she would make an entrance on a horse, the sitcom star laughed in response, adding that her horse Gator would love that.

According to The Blast, the “Cowgirls Don’t Cry” singer revealed that her two grand dogs, Watson and Belle, just might be the ring bearers at her wedding. These grand dogs are owned by her son, Shelby Blackstock, and his wife, Marissa Blackstock. 

In addition to the long-horned steers, donkeys, and horses, McEntire also referred to the couple’s cats, who they have a lot of fun with.

Rex Linn And Reba McEntire’s Relationship Timeline 

The news of the couple’s engagement did not come as a surprise to fans, as Linn and McEntire have known each other for about 35 years. However, the relationship did not progress to romance until 2020, nearly three decades after they first met.
