Emily Atack has revealed she will marry her fiancé Alistair Garner in September, as she opened up on planning their big day.
The actress, 36, got engaged to the scientist in July 2025, after they welcomed their son Barney, two, the previous year.
Emily has now revealed that they’ve set a date for their wedding, and said she’s ‘very much enjoyed’ the preparations.
Sources previously said the Inbetweeners star was considering getting married in Spain, after enjoying family holidays there since she was a child.
Emily recently made a raucous return to screens as Sarah Stratton in the hit Disney+ series Rivals, showing off her recent weight loss as she returned to the role.
Speaking about her wedding, she said: ‘I think I’ve nailed it. We’re getting married in September. I’ve very much enjoyed the planning process.’

She went on to tell Luxury London Magazine: ‘Choosing napkins and stuff. I’m like, ”My God, my life is here!”
Emily’s mum previously let slip that the star would tie the knot this year, after joking that Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala look would be her dream ‘mother-of-the-bride’ outfit.
Last year it was reported that Emily and Alistair had been considering wedding venues in Spain.
An insider told The Sun On Sunday: ‘Emily has been going to Spain with her family on holiday ever since she was a child and loves the idea of getting married there.
‘She and Alistair adore the stunning countryside there, and guaranteed sun is a bonus.’
She previously said: ‘I loved my family holidays there when I was growing up.
‘We had a property there and my dad sold it a couple of years ago, but it’s our favourite place and we still go every year, and stay in a hotel.’
Emily returned to screens as saucy seductress Sarah Stratton, as Disney+ series Rivals’ second series was released on May 15.
The actress opened up about one complex dinner party scene ahead of its release and how it pushed her acting skills, explaining: ‘You’ve got to know the lines inside out, know every bit of the rhythm of it.’

The actress went on to say how the show ‘did it all in one go’, which was a new experience for her.
She described a moment in the scene where her character has to ‘break down’ and added it was genuine, having had a feeling of ‘I’ve done it’.
Emily recently reflected on playing ‘flawed’ women ahead of the raunchy new series return, which took place on May 15.
In an interview, she described ‘promiscuous and naughty’ Sarah as ‘an absolute f***ing nightmare’.
She told The Times: ‘People in the past never wanted to admit that they identify with characters like Sarah as she’s promiscuous and naughty.
‘Now, characters like her, people are going, ‘Why am I rooting for them?’ I’m all for that. I want to play a flawed woman in a right bl**dy pickle.’
