The pair, who first met while starring in the theatre production of Legally Blonde together, will say “I do” in an intimate church ceremony followed by a swanky reception with friends and family.
A source told The Sun: “They’re tying the knot today in the Cotswolds.
“It’s a traditional church wedding, then a huge reception at a posh venue nearby – then they’re staying at a spa for the night.”
Faye got together with Iwan at the end of last year following her split with her personal trainer boyfriend of three-years Joe Davis in July.
Just four months later he got down on one knee and the couple have wasted no time planning their big day.
She told OK! in April: “It’s making my heart pound now because I still can’t believe we’re getting married. It’s still sinking in for me.
“He took my breath away and I did get emotional. I never thought I would get my happy ending and I think we’ve waited this long to get our happy ending and it turned out to be the guy who was there the whole time.
“I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, I can say that from the bottom of my heart. It’s a gut thing too. I’m not questioning anything.”
An insider added of her nuptials: “Faye and Iwan have picked a stunning venue in the Cotswolds, not far from where they now live.
“It’s going to be a super low key affair and very intimate – with just their nearest and dearest in attendance.
“It’s not going to be a big glitzy event with celebs, there will be drama school friends and Faye’s oldest pals instead.”
She picked her wedding dress just weeks after Iwan popped the question
Faye, who was a runner-up on Dancing On Ice in 2021 and played Kate Connor in Corrie for four years until 2019, moved in with Iwan in Cirencester not long after they started dating.
Faye has been engaged before to former Pop Idol star Gareth Gates.
ITV star Faye teased fans with photos from her wedding dress fitting last week and tried on a number of stunning gowns.
One photo saw her in an elegant floor length dress with floral mesh overlay teamed with a huge train.
Another snap captured a bandeau-neckline gown with a corset back while the third and final option featured a billowing, flowing skirt.
