The wedding is taking place on July 17, 2010 in Los Angeles. The ceremony will be a traditional Catholic ceremony followed by a reception outdoors:

The wedding is July 17 of next year in Los Angeles. It will be a Catholic wedding in a church with a reception outdoors. We are going with a fall color scheme. Amsale is doing my dress and the guys are wearing Tom Ford. I’m still looking for my planner, which is an experience in itself. I want someone who gets my style and can make it happen. I love my dogs and want them to come to the reception dressed in tuxes. I’m also changing to a second dress as we get ready to party.

Eva also talks about how she and Lance keep their relationship going despite their busy schedules, who she looks up to as relationship role models and more!

Her wedding sounds beautiful but very over the top! Dogs in tuxes? Sounds cute, but it’s not my thing.

I think Eva looked great with her ruffled white dress and relaxed hair and accessories. There are rumors flying that Eva took home an award at the ceremony, but she’s not on the official winners list, so I’m not sure. Can anyone help me out here?

Winners that evening included Rumer Willis for Breakthrough Performance Female, Ed Westwick for Breakthrough Performance Male, Bar Refaeli for Young Hollywood Crossover and Evan Rachel Wood for Young Hollywood Superstar. You can see a list of more winners here.

i think it’s interesting that they really focused on Eva’s engagement to actor Lance Goss.

I wonder who is going to be next week’s Top Model in Action?

looked stunning as she walked the red carpet at the 40th Annual NAACP Image Awards on February 12.

Eva’s gorgeous gown was made by Lebanese designer Jean Fares and her jewelry was by Damiani. Eva was the first person to ever wear one of Jean Fares’s creations on the Hollywood red carpet! That’s pretty special and I’m sure Fares will be pleased with how Eva pulled it off.

Her fiance, Lance Gross, was also at the ceremony, but they walked the red carpet separately, only posing for a few photos together at the end.

The NAACP Image Awards honor the best work by African Americans in television, music, film and more. Eva was nominated for “Oustanding Actress in a Daytime Drama Series” for her role as young mother Tyra Hamilton. Lance is currently starring in Tyler Perry’s House of Payne, which is nominated for “Outstanding Comedy Series”.

It was a bittersweet night for the couple, as Lance’s show took home its award. Eva lost to Debbi Morgan who stars in , but I’m sure she wasn’t too disappointed. Debbi strongly deserved the award and there will many times in the future Eva will be honored. You can see a complete list of winners here.

The Tyra Banks Show lost to The View for “Outstanding Daytime Talk Show and America’s Next Top Model lost to American Idol for “Outstanding Reality Series.”

Eva “confesses” that she’s a gamer, even moreso than Lance. She’s a big Mario fan and loves the old school Game Boy. They also have a Wii at home and both seem really into it.

While it’s great Eva loves and plays video games, Game Boy and Mario do not a gamer make. I do love how excited she is by Wii Fit though. It is really fun! I wonder if Eva will pick up the America’s Next Top Model game for Nintendo DS when it makes it’s way stateside!

Rolling Out is a magazine dedicated to exploring issues of interest and affecting today’s African American community.

The happy couple did a photo shoot for the issue and gave the magazine an exclusive interview all about their upcoming wedding and the ups and downs of their relationship. You can read an excerpt here.

Below is a video from behind the scenes at the cover photo shoot!

The couple admits they need to work at their relationship, but have fun spicing things up-both in the bedroom and out of it.

The issue with Eva and Lance on the cover hits newsstands February 12!

The NAACP Image Awards celebrates the achievements of people of color in film, on television, in music and literature as well as honoring those who promote social justice through their creative pursuits.

Eva is up against three of her castmates, Christel Khalil, Nia Peeples and Tonya Lee Williams. Rounding out the category is Debbi Morgan, for her work on All My Children.

Good luck, Eva! She’s been working really hard to become a better actress and it’s been nice to watch her grow and achieve success. This nomination shows that all her hard work is paying off!

Eva has to share the stage with former mentor and current fictional namesake, Tyra!

Tyra Banks’ daytime talk show The Tyra Banks Show is nominated in the “Outstanding Talk-Series” category. Tyra’s up against some stiff competition, including Iconoclasts: Venus Williams & Wyclef Jean on Sundance, Judge Mathis, Tavis Smiley on PBS and ABC’s The View.

I can see Tyra taking this category home. She has the ratings, has critical acclaim and often tackles issues facing women of color today.

Finally, America’s Next Top Model picked up a nomination in the “Outstanding Reality Show” category. ANTM is up against other reality show heavyweights like American Idol, Dancing With the Stars, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Run’s House 4.
I think ANTM has a decent shot at winning, but can see one of the bigger, more mainstream shows, like Idol or Dancing taking it home. They have a bigger audience and more widespread appeal.

What about you? Do you think Tyra, Eva and ANTM have a shot?

This year celebrates the 40th anniversary of the NAACP Awards. The winners will be announced during the ceremony, which will air on Thursday, February 12 at 8:00 EST. You can see a complete list of all the categories and nominees here.

According to US Magazine, Lance popped the question on Christmas Eve in front of their families and close friends.

While the two have been together for a long time and have openly talked about getting married in the future, the question came as a complete shock for Eva.

“I cried. It was totally unexpected. I’m still in shock,” Eva told Essence.

No date has been set yet, but the couple are considering a summer ceremony in 2010.

I’m so happy for Eva and Lance! They are a great couple and truly make each other happy. Eva is going to make a gorgeous bride!
