Will Reeve Plans to Honor Late Dad Christopher at His Upcoming Wedding — Here's How (Exclusive)

ABC News correspondent Will Reeve is getting ready for his wedding day — and while he's still mum on the date and final details, he says he already knows the special way he'll be honoring his late dad Christopher Reeve.

"I'll be wearing his cufflinks," he says of his father, who died in 2004, 10 years after the horse riding accident that left him paralyzed. His mother, Dana Reeve, died in 2006 following a lung cancer diagnosis.

Will, 32, also recently paid tribute to his dad in the special Will Reeve: Finding My Father, where he retraced the same path Christopher had traveled through Alaska and Mexico for a nature documentary — the last project the Superman star filmed before his accident.

"I had always dreamed that he and I would go there together, or that I would go and come back and be able to tell him all about it," Will recently told PEOPLE of the journey. "Of course, that ended up not being possible. So I made it my mission as a journalist to make a documentary that picked up where my dad left off."

"We're in the middle of planning," he says. "Amanda has become like a full-time wedding planner." (It actually is her job — Amanda, 28, and her mother, Victoria Dubin, who is the founder of Victoria Dubin Events, have planned countless celebrations for other couples together.)

Will and Amanda, who have been dating since 2023, jointly announced their engagement on Instagram on Nov. 10. The pair captioned the post simply, "Us 🤍."

Will's ABC colleagues were quick to leave their well-wishes in the comments, among them Gio Benitez, who wrote, "Oh my gosh this makes me SO happy!! Congratulations you two beautiful souls!!! 😍." Deborah Roberts excitedly commented, "Whoop 🙌🏾!! ❤️❤️."

The following day, Will told PEOPLE of the engagement, "Friday was the happiest night of our lives, and we can’t wait to spend forever together."

During a segment on ABC News in January 2024, the groom-to-be spoke highly of falling in love, saying, "If I can speak personally, it will happen when you least expect it. And you'll be the happiest you'll ever be."
