Buffy Mates Engaged
Angel co-star Alexis Denisof told SCI FI Wire that he became formally engaged to former Buffy the Vampire Slayer castmate Alyson Hannigan (Willow) over the Christmas break. "I'm the luckiest guy in the world right now," a beaming Denisof said in an interview at The WB's winter press preview. "Sorry. She's mine. All mine! Ha ha ha ha!"
Denisof, 36, who plays former Watcher Wesley Wyndam-Pryce on Angel, met Hannigan, 28, when they both appeared on UPN's Buffy, and the two have been dating since Denisof moved to The WB's Buffy spinoff series. He said he decided to propose while the two took a break from production for the holidays. "We were driving up to my family up in Seattle during the Christmas break from our shows," he said. "And I had the ring. And I had thought of a 100 different crazy, romantic, complicated plans of asking her. And at the end, I was just like, 'You know, I'm going to keep it simple, and I'll know when it's the right time.'"
Denisof added, "So I had the ring with me. .. It was burning a hole in the ... armrest of my car, where it was locked. And we drove all night from L.A. to get north of San Francisco, so we could spend the following day in Napa Valley. And we were just having the most perfect day. We stopped at a winery, and stopped at a Dean and Deluca and got some beautiful food to make a picnic, and then we drove up to a mountain lake in Napa Valley. And it was there that I asked her. And lucky for me, she said yes."
The couple have set a tentative September or October date for the nuptials, which will likely take place in California, Denisof said. Meanwhile, he said, "We're both working on our shows, and she's also doing the third American Pie movie, so ... I won't actually see her until March [laughs]. So if we can manage to plan a wedding, then we'll be doing pretty well, yeah. But we're shooting for September or October if possible." Angel airs an original episode in its new 9 p.m. ET/PT Wednesday timeslot on Jan. 15; Buffy airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
