You have a big hand, and slam may be possible. Plan to go slow on your way to finding either 6NT or 6Cs. Your 1st rebid should be 2 diamonds, showing the nice stopper in that suit. If partner’s next bid is 2 spades, then you will continue with 3 hearts. As the cards lie, partner will then bid 4 diamonds. You will then bid seven no trump. It looks clear that 13 tricks are likely. Here is the actual hand:
