"It's something that we continually talk about."
She also added,
"But I think what's best right now is we feel no pressure to do it. Think about it: when you get together in an accelerated process, it makes sense to take your time afterwards. We still have no doubts about what we want to do, and we want to get married — but we want to enjoy every moment of it."

2.) Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth
Off all the Bachelorette seasons, 11th season bring was a lot of fun. It brings many of the toughest contestants which made it more difficult for Kaitlyn Bristowe to choose.
At first, many people believed Nick Viall will take it all away but seems fate has something else planned. Both Kaitlyn and Shawn Booth were one of the funniest pairs and to be honest, many of us were rooting for them.
As soon as Kaitlyn gave him the red rose, Shawn didn't waste any time and went down on his knees. The couple is currently engaged to one another and there is no plan for marriage yet.
