Says the actress, "We hit if off immediately, but it took us a pretty long time to get together." But after they did, "things sped up a bit and I think I'll leave it at that."

"Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life," she has said of the relationship. No word yet on the wedding date.

The couple were photographed in Brooklyn's Fort Greene Park on Sunday celebrating the big news.

"I'm a romantic at heart! [Of Adam] He's the best!," Hathaway once gushed. "I am very much in love with him, [only] Adam totally ruined my plan. I was really actually looking forward to a little alone time and then I fell in love like a fool!"

Kristen Stewart's 'Breaking Dawn' Wedding Hairstyle
Let visit Kristen Stewart's Style Evolution from 2005 to 2011 about her growth in Fashion. Now On-screen and real life sweethearts Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson ready for wedding in "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1″ is one of the most anticipated movie weddings of all time.

Bella's hair is done by Rosalie who makes two braids at the side of her head and then gathers them into a bun with long whispy strands left out to frame her face.

Kristen Stewart's 'Breaking Dawn' Wedding Hairstyle Tip:

Step 1: Make sure that hair is dry and preferably washed one or two nights before styling. Recently washed hair is too slippery to work with for an up do and shows more flyaways, Bork says. Comb through hair fully.

Step 2: Apply a moose or volumizing spray to the hair. If you have thinner hair, apply product all over. If you have thicker hair, stick to the roots.

Step 3: Using a round brush, begin blow drying the hair. This will smooth out the hair cuticles to lend a more luminous look. Fun fact: By nature, a round brush creates more shine.

Step 4: Prepare a thick curling iron and separate the hair into 1-inch sections. Before curling, apply hairspray to the root of each section. Begin to curl, starting at the top of the roots. "The goal of curling is to make your hair fuller and more luscious," Bork continues.

Step 5: Start your French braiding. Separate hair for a regular braid while leaving two extra sections around it. Begin with your regular braid, staying very close the scalp. After your first knot, feed in a piece from one of the extra sections. Braid again. Then feed a piece from the other extra section. Braid again. Continue until done.

Step 6: Secure the braid with bobby pins.

Step 7: Tease the roots of the hair to create an illusion of volume. Brush very gently to smoothen out, leaving a little height.

Step 8: Create your bun. Continue to leave the French braids in front of the hair. Take the back section of your hair and start a loose, regular half-braid. Twist the bottom of the braid into a low, loose bun. Secure with bobby pins.

Step 9: Fold in braids.

Step 10: Finish off with hairspray.

Alfred Angelo Recreates Bella's Bridal Gown

2011-11-22T10:38:00.000-08:00

Alfred Angelo released a lookalike Wedding Dress today that will retail for just $799. The long solid sleeves, the cut-out back and the diagonal seaming on the front of the dress all seem to be the hallmarks of Bella's stellar gown.

Also reported earlier that Bella has "dream" wedding gown, but there's no word yet on whether that one will also be available.

So fashion aside, how much would Bella and Edward's pretty in-the-woods nuptials cost? Around $38,000 -- which puts them just about the national average of around $26,000. While the wedding was at home, the three miles of Christmas lights leading up to the venue were estimated at over $8,000 by Home Depot.

From the look of the wedding, it seems like they spent most of their budget on flowers probably around $20,000. Add in $1,500 for a live band, $800 for a cake that huge, satin drapes for the chairs ($110), a tent for the reception (around $250) and you're getting pretty close to that $38,000 estimate. Compared to other recent celebrity weddings (Kim K's estimated $10 million bash or the royal wedding, which reportedly cost around $60 million) and suddenly, this doesn't seem that bad at all.
