Ricky Martin wishes to have big fat wedding

The 44-year-old star, who recently got engaged to artist Yosef after a year of dating, remembers "celebrating like crazy" when same-sex marriage was legalised in June last year and is now looking forward to putting the plans he dreamed of back then into action, reported People magazine.

"(After gay marriage was legalised) I thought, 'I hope someday I get to wear a freaking ring and celebrate love and bring my family and friends to a big feast and get all Latin crazy on it.

"This (wedding) is going to be Middle Eastern and Latin crazy all at once. It's going to be one loud wedding!" 

The singer may not have been going out with his partner for a very long time, but he is "very certain" about their relationship.

"It's one of those things when you have very beautiful moments, magical moments, magical conversations and beautiful experiences and all this time, you're thinking, maybe it's here.

"Then you just go for it and allow yourself to feel... I'm very certain about what's happening. I'm a hopeless romantic," he said.
