The special, hosted by Chris Harrison, will commemorate 20 seasons of The Bachelor -- including romantic and heartbreaking memories as well as goofy behind-the-scenes moments.
The top three "Most Dramatic" moments, "Biggest Scandals," "Steamiest Hot Tubs," "People We Love to Hate," "Best Man-Cries" and "Bloopers" in show history will all culminate in the wedding of second-season Bachelor in Paradise stars Roper and Tolbert.
The Bachelor At 20: A Celebration of Love will feature the biggest gathering of franchise alumni ever.
Current The Bachelor star Ben Higgins will make an appearance in addition to Kaitlyn Bristowe and fiance Shawn Booth, Trista Rehn and husband Ryan Sutter, Ashley Hebert and husband JP Rosenbaum with their son Fordham, Sean Lowe and pregnant wife Catherine Giudici, Jason Mesnick and wife Molly Malaney, Desiree Hartsock and husband Chris Siegfried, former Bachelors Chris Soules, Andrew Firestone and Bob Guiney, and former Bachelorettes Andi Dorfman, Ali Fedotowsky, DeAnna Pappas, and Jillian Harris.
Harrison will be shown marrying Roper and Tolbert at the St. Regis Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point, CA. Singer Matt Nathanson will serenade the couple for their ceremony, and guests will include Nick Viall, Jared Haibon, Sarah Herron, Ashley Iaconetti and her sister Lauren Iaconetti, Juelia Kinney, JJ Lane, Michelle Money, and Ben Zorn.
Viewers will also witness the festivities and events which led up to Roper and Tolbert's big day. Prior to their January 24 wedding, Tolbert shopped for a Neil Lane ring and Roper selected her beautiful dress by Galia Lahav.
The celebration will then move to the couple's reception, where Roper and Tolbert will dance, cut their cake and receive well-wishes from fellow The Bachelor cast members. Seal will deliver special musical performances of "Kiss from a Rose" and "Every Time I'm With You" at the reception.
The Bachelor at 20: A Celebration of Love is being produced by Next Entertainment in association with Warner Horizon Television. Mike Fleiss, Nicole Woods, Peter Scalettar, Elan Gale and Bennett Graebner are serving as executive producers.
