The 'Sex And The City' star announced plans to wed her girlfriend Christine Marinoni at New York's Love, Peace and Marriage Equality rally on Sunday (17.05.09).
Although the 43-year-old actress did not reveal when or where she plans to tie the knot, she did say she got engaged in April.
Cynthia - who has two children, Samantha and Charles, with her ex-partner Danny Mozes - and Christine have been dating for around five years.
Last year, the actress said she would only marry Christine when same-sex partnerships were given legal equality.
She said: "I think we would definitely get married if it became legal in New York. I don't really want to get married to get married pretend. I think we'd like to do it in a real, actual, legal way that the state would recognise."
The Love, Peace and Marriage Equality rally was staged to show support for a proposal to make same-sex marriages legally equal to heterosexual unions.
