Natalie Neidhart, better known as WWE Diva Natalya, is on cloud nine. After her recent wedding to fellow WWE Superstar Tyson Kidd (TJ Wilson), she sounded elated and described her special day as "out of this world" and "a dream wedding."

 

In an exclusive interview with E!, Natalya dished on her crazy bachelorette party in Vegas, her wedding day with TJ, and what we can expect to see on the upcoming show, Total Divas.

 

Most brides like to be hands-on when it comes to their big day and Natayla was definitely one of them. "I had a hand in everything. From the color scheme, the food, the drinks, the table setting. What kind of flowers I wanted. The dress. I picked everything."

 

Wonder who walked her down the aisle? Her cat Gismo, who she says, "is like my child", accompanied her and her dad during this big moment! "My mom had made [Gismo] a tuxedo to match the groom tuxedo. It was so cute!"

 

When asked about her favorite moment during the wedding, she said, "It was when I walked down the spiral staircase that led to the ceremony where all my guests were waiting, and the string quartet was playing. I had my cat in one arm and had my dad on my other arm. I saw TJ's face and I saw all of my guests and I realized I was right where I was supposed to be in my life."

 

Um, that sounds pretty perfect to us!

Wedding festivities aren't complete without the soon-to-be-bride having a crazy bachelorette party with some of her closest friends. We learned that the married Diva partied it up with fellow Total Divas cast members JoJo, Eva Marie, The Funkadactyls, and The Bella Twins in Las Vegas.

 

"We got a little crazy. I'm not the party girl. I'm not the party type. The wedding paled in comparison to the partying that happened at the bachelorette party."

 

This got us intrigued and we wanted to know more!

 

"The [Bella] Twins surprised me and took me to Chippendales," she explains, "but Chippendales isn't really my cup of tea. Somehow I ended up getting roped into it, tied up on stage...the rest you might have to watch Total Divas to find out…"

 

Oh, we will be, we will be!

 

When asked about Total Divas and what she was excited for people to see, she said, "I think Total Divas will give people a crazy backstage look at our lives behind the scenes. There's so much work that goes into what we do. There's so much more than us just doing headlocks and drop kicks."

 

The WWE Divas travel more than 250 days a year, all over the globe. They're in over 150 different countries and it sounds like we're going to get a raw, unfiltered look at the hard work (and fun) that goes into being a WWE Superstar.

 

"We laugh together, we cry together, we fight, we make up, we wrestle together, we just live together. It's these great bonds that people will get to see and almost get to feel a part of."

 

You can catch Natalya and the rest of the Divas on the premiere of Total Divas, airing Sunday, July 28 at 10/9c on E! Check out WWEDivas.com for even more Diva related content!
