Ly and her fiance have been preparing for almost a year, completing a pre-cana course in accordance with Catholic tradition. The couple recently traveled to Australia for a pre-wedding photoshoot.

"I'm keeping my future husband's name private," Ly said. "He's a Hanoi-based businessman in the paper industry. He studied abroad in London, England before returning to Vietnam to take over the family business." The beauty queen accepted his proposal last February while traveling together in Japan.

"Besides personality compatibility, we both prioritize family," Ly added. "His family is very loving and caring towards me and my family, which makes me feel secure about starting this new chapter."

The wedding ceremonies will be held in Hanoi and Gia Lai, with family and close friends in attendance. The engagement ceremony will take place in November in Gia Lai. After the wedding, Ly plans to enjoy married life and continue her modeling career before starting a family.
