Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell got engaged in the March season finale of The Bachelor after he told her, 'You're my person.'

Now comes word that The Bachelor and the lady of his dreams are planning to get married 'very soon' within the next three months or so in a televised wedding on ABC.

That means Lauren, who accepted Ben's final rose and subsequent proposal, will get the summer wedding she's been wishing for.

A source told Us Weekly that the couple 'will get married very soon, probably this summer.'

And ABC will handle all the details from the venue to the flower arrangements, and capture the whole event on camera.

'It would be an ABC special,' the source noted.

Lauren, who is from Portland, Oregon, moved into Ben's pad in Denver, Colorado last month.

'Everything is going really well' for the 25-year-old flight attendant and the 28-year-old software salesperson, according to Us Weekly's source.

The blonde beauty told the publication in March around the time of The Bachelor season 20: 'I always wanted a summer wedding.'

Perfect match: The couple had that certain something as they strolled around Lauren's hometown of Portland, Oregon on the February 22 episode of The Bachelor

Now it looks like she'll get her wish.

She added: 'We want to share our life with everyone who's been supportive, and that includes Bachelor Nation.'

'They are both so in love with each other and will definitely be one of the few couples to make it from the show,' a source told Entertainment Tonight.

As fans will recall, even a first date mishap was shrugged off with grace after Ben got trapped in an elevator on the way to the parking garage and had to be rescued by a firefighter.

'Traumatizing! I'll never forget our first Denver date. @LaurenBushnell3 keeps laughing,' Ben tweeted
