Unless you've been hiding under a rock—or maybe just too busy staring at the one now gracing Drew Barrymore's finger—you know the bubbly star is engaged to beau Will Kopelman and ready to head down the aisle for the third time.

This morning, the Big Miracle star dropped by Good Morning America ostensibly to discuss her new movie, but, as it happens, her new fiancé crept his way into the conversation, too.

So, has Drew set a wedding date?

Not yet. And the 36-year-old bride-to-be isn't feeling any pressure when it comes to rushing down the aisle and is bent on fully enjoying her engagement.

"We're trying to figure it out, I think everyone expects you to kind of know right away what all the plans are," she told Robin Roberts. "And I'm like, 'Oh goodness, this just happened a month ago, do I not have it together, or is it OK to keep daydreaming?' "

We're going to go with the latter, particularly when Drew is biding her time with adorable behavior like wearing her fiancé's watch as a reminder of her love and glowing throughout her promotional interviews.

"For his happiness and people's happiness, this is a really positive story and this is a positive time, and I like positivity," Drew said. "I'm just drawn to it."

Oh, Drew. The phrase is blushing bride, not gushing bride—but we'll take either!
