Aesha shares details on her and Scott's wedding: "We pushed it..."
The update came as Aesha and Scott gear up to exchange “I dos.” The couple got engaged in May 2024 and initially planned to tie the knot in 2025; however, they chose to push the wedding date back to give them and their guests more time to prepare.
Aesha explained the postponement during her January 27 appearance on on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
“I had a very busy year last year,” she said. “We pushed it, and we’ve got a lot of American guests, so I want to give people time to save.”

As of now, Aesha will walk down the aisle on March 7, 2026. The longtime yachtie teased her wedding plans in a June 2024 interview with The Daily Dish, saying she wanted the event to be a vacation for her loved ones.
“We are loving basking in the moment and enjoying this phase of our relationship. We want to have a long engagement,” she said. “We want to do it in the New Zealand summer, which is obviously over the Christmas time. We don’t want to do it this summer. We want to do it next summer. We wanted to enjoy this phase, and we also wanted to wait long enough that all of our American friends and family had enough time to save and to really turn it into a big holiday.”
