This week, the cast of the very first season of “The Golden Bachelorette” was announced and fans can’t wait to see Joan Vassos kick off her journey next month.

Entertainment Weekly shared some exclusive behind-the-scenes pics of Joan and her Golden men as they met her walking out of the limos.
Joan looked absolutely radiant in a sheer crystal gold gown, and Bachelor Nation lead stylist Cary Fetman told the outlet, “Joan was not nervous about wearing anything. Good God, she wore a completely sheer crystal dress one night and a leather gown another!”

And Joan shared that she also loved picking out outfits, saying it was “one of the most fun parts” of getting ready for Night 1.
She said, “Oh, my God, the evening gowns, I can’t even begin to tell you. There were probably 30 that I was in love with.”
