No problem.
You might need to know that while keeping a planted aquarium is a lot more fun and it definitely look better, it can be a lot more troublesome and require a whole new level of maintenance. It will also cost you more if you want to keep it seriously. I would recommend you to plant the plants first and let them have a head start while you do the fishless cycle. Fish can come in much later.
To set up a planted aquarium, there is a video in this thread worth watch.
