 Nick Lachey proposed to Vanessa Minnillo last November after dating for four years, and he's pleased with their wedding preparations so far.

He said: "We're working on it. We're getting there slowly but surely…we're inching our way along."

Speaking at a swim party hosted by Sports Illustrated at Vanity Nightclub in Las Vegas, the former reality TV star -- who divorced Jessica Simpson in 2005 after three years of marriage -- also revealed he only has eyes for his bride-to-be.

He told E! Online: "It's a look, no touch party for me so I'm just gonna enjoy it from afar.

"Vanessa looks as good if not better than any of the models you see behind me in a swimsuit."

Earlier this month, Nick, 37, told of how their engagement was part of a "carefully calculated plan" because he didn't want to fail in his proposal to the 30-year-old beauty.

He explained: "You gotta take it in stages. If you set the bar too high then you set yourself up for failure. This was a carefully calculated plan. You have to set the romance but you have to take it in phases. This was phase one."

It sounds like Nick Lachey is being completely honest about his upcoming wedding to longtime girlfriend Vanessa Minnillo.

“I want it to be about her,” Lachey tells PEOPLE. “Any guy will tell you that it’s probably more about the bride than the groom. It’s just about celebrating your love for each other.”

He said they aren’t in the planning stages yet, but it sounds like Nick’s pretty much going to leave that to Vanessa. But don’t take that as a sign he doesn’t love her.

“She’s my soulmate in every way,” he gushes. “She gets me, I get her. We enjoy a lot of the same things and we enjoy each other’s company.”

Awww… I’m glad these two hung in there and are getting married . it can’t have been easy for Nick after his divorce from Jessica Simpson.

On Thursday morning (November 11), the “Come On Over” singer explained, "I am extremely, extremely happy for him."


She added, "I don't know where all those rumors came from. My mom actually called me and said that everyone was saying that I was 'saddened.' I was just in complete shock. I couldn't be more happy for Nick.”

"Our relationship was over a really long time ago, and it would be nice if everyone could move on with us and really just celebrate the love between him and Vanessa [Minnillo]," she went on. "I do, and I really wish them nothing but the best."
