The Bachelor's Madison Prewett tells her proposal story
Even before completing a year of dating, Prewett and Troutt got engaged. They started seeing each other around December last year. The Bachelor alum announced her relationship on Instagram in May, introducing Troutt as "realist G in town."
The couple's engagement announcement included a few pictures from the proposal and a caption that read:
"You were worth the wait.”
Speaking about her proposal day with People magazine, Prewett said:
"He actually was supposed to come with me and my friends to Florida but he got sick and wasn't able to make it. I thought we were celebrating one of our friend's birthdays. I was told we were taking birthday pictures on the beach and when I came down, my best friend led me into the bathroom where my mom and sisters were with the dress I wanted to get engaged in.”
At that point, Prewett knew Troutt was going to propose to her. The event occurred on the beachside at The Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida.
She further said:
“I have waited for this day my whole life. I am so excited that it's finally here. He is everything I have prayed for, waited for, and dreamed of my whole life. He was definitely worth the wait.”
The reality TV star further mentioned that the couple would throw a short engagement party and start prepping for their wedding. She described their dream wedding to be "chic and classy."
