One of the key moments of the Love Is Blind episode featured Sara expressing her confidence in her relationship with Ben. When discussing her upcoming marriage, Sara told Ben:
"My sister's like, Sarah, 'do you feel, like, safe? Or do you feel like this is pressured?' And it's like, no, it literally just feels right."
In response to family members' worries over the fast pace of their engagement, the Love Is Blind duo reflected upon their journey.
This new phase was introduced by hosts Nick and Vanessa Lachey, who stressed the value of cohabitating before marriage. Couples dealt with issues like domestic duties and different lifestyles throughout the episode.
Love Is Blind: Ben and Sara discuss their relationship and wedding plans
Ben and Sara discussed their impending nuptials in Love Is Blind season 8 episode 8. Ben asked Sara if she had expressed their choice with her family. She attested to having told Lisa, her sister, and her mother.
Additionally, Ben said that he had informed his parents about their engagement, saying:
“I obviously talked to my mom, let her know the news, and we're very excited. She's amazing, and so is my dad. But there’s definitely skepticism in their voice, for sure.”
He acknowledged that his family questioned the short timeline of their engagement and whether it was the right decision. However, Sara reassured Ben that she had no doubts, emphasizing that everything felt right to her. Ben reflected on his connection with Sara and explained:
“I feel like the feelings I have for you are something that I would be feeling three years into a relationship. And it's like, it doesn’t matter that it was three years or just three weeks.”
The conversation then shifted to wedding planning, with Sara opening up about feeling stressed. She said:
“Well, like, colors, and, like, I don't know what kind of dress I want. I've never thought about this.”
She recalled how, in high school, she had favored prom dresses without straps, but now she was having second thoughts. She no longer thought she would look good in a dress that was too loose or too fluffy because those styles didn't suit her.
Later on Love Is Blind, Ben shared that he had never pictured a woman wearing a wedding gown before. But as she talked, he found that, for the first time, he could see her in one. Sara was visibly moved by his words and admitted she was nervous. Ben reassured her, adding:
“Don’t be nervous. I’m, like, over here being like… this is real. I’ve always pictured, like, our wedding, but for some reason, I never pictured you in a wedding dress. Oh, my God. I can't wait.”

“This is what I was wearing the first time you proposed. I'll find the jeans I was wearing the second time you proposed.”
Daniel jokingly responded:
“Can't wait to see what you're wearing the fourth time you proposed.”
