It&#8217;s free built in entertainment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So Kat wrote me the other day, she was like, &#8216;Is there anything that I can be doing to help you prepare?'&#8221; Erin continued. &#8220;And I said, &#8216;Yes. Vocal exercises. Prepare your voice because you will be performing.&#8217; She&#8217;s like, &#8216;OK&#8217;&#8230;there&#8217;s a song from <em>Waitress<\/em> that we really want her to perform that we really love.&nbsp;I don&#8217;t know what else. Yeah, just anything. She truly has such a beautiful voice.

They charge a lot of money to do things like that. So she is just assuming that they&#8217;ll do it, but she hasn&#8217;t asked formally.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since she was a little girl, she was like, &#8216;I just want<strong> Babyface<\/strong> to sing at my wedding,&#8221; Sara continued. &#8220;And obviously, my dad&#8217;s worked with him and he&#8217;s a family friend, and Erin was like, &#8216;Oh, he&#8217;s definitely- it&#8217;s a lock.&#8217; And then he RSVP no to the wedding. So she&#8217;s a bit depressed&#8230;I saw him recently. He&#8217;s not coming. He&#8217;s performing in Vegas. He&#8217;s not canceling Vegas.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Erin&nbsp;and Simon are set to tie the knot on New Year&#8217;s Eve.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, I think a lot of people are excited to have New year&#8217;s Eve plans because New Year&#8217;s Eve sucks most of the time,&#8221; Erin told E! News. &#8220;So when you have something that fun to celebrate and then also, it&#8217;s everybody else&#8217;s New Year&#8217;s Eve, so they&#8217;re going to be in a celebratory mood, it kind of makes the most sense. But it is hard for people&nbsp;with kids because they&#8217;re taking family vacations at that time, so we&#8217;ve&#8230;had some people who feel like it&#8217;s inconvenient for them, for sure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m honestly just not a very traditional person so I don&#8217;t ever follow a rule of how things are supposed to go,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;So I think we&#8217;re just gonna kind of wing it. I&#8217;m getting married at night, I&#8217;m not gonna do daytime\u2014I&#8217;m not doing photos before. We don&#8217;t want to see each other before, well I guess that&#8217;s kind of old school and traditional. But none of our photos will be in daytime and I don&#8217;t really care.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-6\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"72\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"34\">\n<p>Sara said her daughter&nbsp;<strong>Valentina<\/strong>, 9, will be part of Erin&#8217;s wedding party.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think she&#8217;s going to be a flower girl,&#8221; Sara said. &#8220;I mean, she hasn&#8217;t also been asked but I think she&#8217;ll be a flower girl. Yup.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sara also joked that Erin is &#8220;such a freaking bridezilla.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can&#8217;t even say like one negative- you can&#8217;t say like, &#8216;Oh, it could be a little bit cold the day of your wedding,'&#8221; she said. &#8220;She&#8217;s like, &#8216;Why are you so negative about my wedding?!&#8217; I mean, you have to just, you can&#8217;t say a word.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sara is planning Erin&#8217;s bridal shower and bachelorette party.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My speech will be more like a roast, so we may never speak after, but she deserves it,&#8221; she joked. &#8220;Nobody wants to listen to some love story for 20 minutes about your, the best sister in the world&#8230;No, no, no, no. We&#8217;re going to talk about all the creepy s&#8211;t you did when we were kids.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-8\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"64.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"19\">\n<p>Erin has been prepping for her big day with some dietary changes&#8230;in theory.<\/p>\n<p>My workout routine hasn&#8217;t really changed but I guess I&#8217;m trying to eat better,&#8221; she said. &#8220;But I keep saying I&#8217;m gonna start eating better and then I just keep putting it off. And so I have six weeks left and now I&#8217;m like, OK, today I&#8217;m going to start eating better and taking my workouts more seriously.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve been more focused on skincare,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I really wanna have glowing skin and have like my hair shiny. But here&#8217;s what I&#8217;ll say: I think that most brides don&#8217;t look like themselves on their wedding day. They&#8217;re really skinny. They&#8217;re really stressed out. And to me, that doesn&#8217;t look like a happy woman. I think that I want to look like myself on my wedding day. So I&#8217;m like, I&#8217;m having a glass of wine when I want to drink and I&#8217;m having a bite of cake if I want to have a bite of cake and like, I want to look like myself. I&#8217;m not trying to look like an unrealistic version of myself on my wedding day that I can&#8217;t maintain.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1095316\/erin-foster-wants-stepmom-katharine-mcphee-to-perform-at-her-wedding?cmpid=rss-000000-rssfeed-365-topstories&#038;utm_source=eonline&#038;utm_medium=rssfeeds&#038;utm_campaign=rss_topstories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: E!
