Perhaps Nist’s pre-wedding look indicates what’s to come of her bridal ensemble.
In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE four days ahead of her nuptials, Nist revealed that her gown is “traditional and modern,” but admits “it’s really not what I envisioned I would wear.”
Her daughter, daughter-in-law and fellowGolden BachelorcontestantsSusan Noles(who will officiate the wedding) andKathy Swartshelped her pick the gown she’ll wear down the aisle.

“I was presented with these incredibly gorgeous gowns from Badgley Mischka, and I was overwhelmed,” Nist says. “I asked each one of these beautiful women to go pick their favorite. And then I picked three of mine, and I walked down the stairs with them. And when it was the dress, they unanimously thought this was the good gown. I think Susan was so proud because that’s the one I picked out!”
Though Turner originally thought about wearing a blue suit for the wedding, “We talked one night, and we came to the conclusion that a black tux would look a little more formal,” he says. “And that’s where I’m going, the black tux.”
