Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici have taken the next step in their relationship ahead of their wedding. The Bachelor season 17 stars moved in together in Dallas for a quieter lifestyle.

"They've finally made the move to Dallas as of this week," a friend of the couple told Life & Style. "They're really happy together and excited to start their new life."

The couple themselves recently spoke to Life & Style about Giudici's first trip to Dallas in July and their wedding plans.

"It was wonderful. I tried to give her like a broad overview of what Dallas is about," Lowe said of Giudici's visit. "I think she got a taste of Dallas."

When asked about having a televised wedding, Lowe shared the advantages of it and why they agreed to it.

"TV certainly has its advantages" Lowe told Life & Style. "As I've said a number of times, a free wedding is always a good thing and you can create the wedding of your dreams, all her dreams. Then you don't have to sit back and worry about the budget and freak out about stuff like that, so I think there are advantages to both - either it being televised or private."

Lowe said because their relationship started on television, they will allow their fans to watch them wed on TV.

"Hopefully we'll have a date sometime soon," he added.

The pair reportedly decided to reschedule their televised wedding because they were not ready film yet another television show. The former Texas insurance agent competed on Dancing With The Stars for eight weeks -- only a week after The Bachelor Season 17 finale aired in March. 

Live From E! reported on July 3 that the couple said they just want to "enjoy each other this summer" and they've "got a few mini-vacations in the works."
