The 'Coronation Street' star and the 'Anyone of Us' singer plan to tie the knot next year and want it to be "somewhere hot" with just 30 of their closest friends.

She said: "We've been through so much as a couple and we've come out of it stronger than ever. We're a team and our wedding day is about the next chapter of our lives together. We're definitely going to get married abroad somewhere hot. We love the idea of it being very intimate, so we're only going to invite 30 people ... The wedding is going to be the biggest day of our lives so I'm going to go big with my dress and every other detail of the day. I'll only get married once and I want it to be huge."

And the 31-year-old actress can't wait to start a family with Gareth one day.

She added to OK! magazine: "That's really important to both of us, so once we're married that will definitely be something we start thinking about. We also want to buy a house together."

Meanwhile, Faye previously insisted she and Gareth will "never take each other for granted again" after they split up briefly.

Quizzed on their previous split, she said: "It was for the right reasons for sure. I feel like we'll never take each other for granted ever again. Work took over and we ended up missing each other so much that we were missing life together. We are enjoying engagement but obviously I've been dreaming of this [wedding] day since I was a little girl."
