Exclusive! Snooki Tells Us About Her Wedding & The Dress!
Maturing from housemate to hot momma, Snooki plans to put her bridesmaids in leopard dresses.
Not only has our favorite pickle-loving, partying meatball Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi become an MTV icon thanks to Jersey Shore and Snooki & JWoww, she's created a fragrance, published best-selling books and most recently posed for Annex Magazine's June cover. As the petite wild child turned responsible parent prepares for her wedding, we can't help but wonder: Will she rock a leopard print dress and her old school hair pouf down the aisle? Find out the answer!
YourTango: What line did Jionni use to pick you up?
Snooki: I'm pretty sure I went up to him and said, "Hey cutie, let's dance," and from there, the rest is history.
YourTango: Describe the moment you knew you were in love with him.
Snooki: It was soon, probably within the first three months that we were dating. I just realized that he was everything I've always wanted, and I could talk to him about anything. Once you realize the guy you're in love with can be your best friend and lover, I mean, it's meant to be.
YourTango: What were your first thoughts when you found out you were pregnant?
Snooki: Our first reaction when we found out was an excited and nervous, "Oh shit!"
YourTango: What's the thing about being a mom that has surprised you the most?
Snooki: How much it has matured me and made me grow up. I'm a totally different person, and I absolutely love it. I didn't expect motherhood to be like this! I talked to a lot of mothers before I gave birth, and they said get ready to be stressed out of your mind with no sleep. Even though I get no sleep, I'm not stressed yet. I'm in love.
YourTango: Jessica Alba recently said she wore a double corset to lose her baby weight. Would you ever do that?
Snooki: Of course I would! Jessica Alba is a hot mom, and she has a rocking body. I did it the old-fashioned way—working out in the gym and a healthy diet. It took me about four to five months going five days a week with my trainer. Hard work pays off!
YourTango: What can we expect your wedding dress to look like?
Snooki: I have no idea yet. It won't be leopard like everyone thinks—that's for my bridesmaids. I've started to look, and I love open back dresses with maybe a big bow on the butt. I honestly have no idea, but whatever I find is going to be so elegant but gaudy at the same time. You can have the best of both worlds!
YourTango: Tell us more about your wedding. Do you have a date set?
Snooki: I have no idea about anything yet. We realized we want to get married sometime next year. No date set yet, and it will probably be in Jersey.
YourTango: Will you write your own vows?
Snooki: I would love to write my own vows. I just have to convince Jionni, 'cause I don't think he wants to.
YourTango: What about a theme?
Snooki: No idea on themes yet. We haven't planned anything yet but will probably need to soon if we want it to be next year!

YourTango: How old were you when you lost your virginity? What do you remember most about the experience?
Snooki: I was 14. I mean, in upstate New York there's really nothing to do up there but experiment. He was a senior, and I thought he liked me but turned out he was just a jerk. So, it was terrible.
YourTango: What do you think about Amanda Bynes and her recent bizarre tweets?
Snooki: She's just going wild, doing her thing, I guess. Everyone writes crazy things on their Twitter about her. She's definitely interesting to follow, and I do follow her, of course. If she is in trouble and needs help, I hope she gets it, but if she's not, then who am I to criticize her?
