Ben Platt and Noah Galvin are enjoying the wedding-planning process. 

The couple, who got engaged in November last year, opened up about their forthcoming nuptials while speaking to The Messenger at the New York City premiere of their new movie, Theater Camp, on Monday. 

"We've planted a flag, and we're making the big-stroke decisions. We're in no rush," Platt explained, while Galvin added, "We're taking our time. We're enjoying just [being engaged]."

That includes an upcoming getaway following Platt's final performance in the Broadway revival of Parade, which will end its limited engagement Aug. 6.

"We're going to go on a little bit of a vacation," said Galvin, to which Platt added: "Then we're gonna take it easy for a little bit."

The pair also touched upon what it was like "working together in a real capacity" for the first time. Theater Camp, which had its world premiere earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival, follows best friends and drama teachers as they try to keep the camp up and running while they simultaneously make a little onstage magic.

"Obviously, we were apprehensive because we are each other's partners, and that's what has to come first. But I think [collaborating] ended up pointing out the things that bring us together in the sense that like, our sensibilities are very similar, and the things that make us laugh are very similar," said Platt. "And what we feel is 'good' is very similar. So it was a nice bonding experience."

Galvin continued: "I think the skill that we came out of this process with is the ability to – I mean, [it's] collaboration at its core – but really to be honest with each other and not have our feelings hurt. It was a big exercise in letting go of our egos and just meeting each other halfway to make something as good as it could be."

Theater Camp is out on Friday.
