Heather Rae Young may have celebrated her upcoming nuptials to Tarek El Moussa with a stunning bridal shower last weekend, but on Thursday, she’s going for round two — with some very special guests.
The special event, which is taking place Thursday morning in Chatsworth, California, will be a soiree complete with rescued goats, chickens, pigs, sheep and alpacas from a local care farm.

In a behind-the-scenes video (above) of the photo shoot for the campaign — which features wedding-related slogans like “Say ‘I Do’ to Vegan” and “Say ‘Yes’ to Vegan” — the Netflix star talks about being animal product-free for 12 years and reveals she even has three tattoos related to the lifestyle choice.
El Moussa, 40, who proposed to Young in July 2020, is not completely vegan, but has made significant steps towards it since meeting his bride-to-be.
“Tarek is the most supportive person of my vegan diet,” Young says, noting that she loves cooking vegan meals for him and his two kids — daughter Taylor, 10, and son Brayden, 6, whom he shares with ex Christina Haack. In fact, she says, El Moussa often admits he likes her vegan meals better than his own.
“We are incorporating a lot of vegan food into the wedding,” Young continues of their upcoming special day. “I definitely want a chocolate peanut butter cake, so Tarek and I already did some taste testing. We have not finalized what we’re gonna do, but we’re definitely gonna do a big vegan cake.”
