Sara and Ryan’s proposal story is one for the books—and the bubblegum machines. In this episode, we talk to the fun-loving couple about their long journey from college crush to creative proposal, and how Ryan turned a long-running inside joke into an unforgettable engagement moment. With a cast of supportive families, a sentimental pub, and one very convincing toy capsule, their story is full of laughter, love, and a few well-earned tears.
