"We would always hear songs and think, 'Oh that would be our song if just this part or that part were different,'" Bennett explained. "So, as a result, we didn't have a song that was 'ours.'"

"I just wanted him to feel like the most special person in those three minutes of first hearing the song," Vaughn added.

For the proposal, Vaughn held up a sign that read "We never did find our song, so I wrote it for you."

"That's when I knew I was getting proposed to because it was the same type of sign he made when he told me he loved me for the first time," Bennett said. "And then I began to ugly-cry the ugliest cry anyone has ever cried."

The couple met on the set of Vaughn's show, Celebrity Page, and began dating in 2017. After their first encounter, they both knew they "were going to be each other's person."

"What we have is really special. It's the thing people make movies about or, I guess in this case, write songs about," the Cake Wars host told People.

"It feels like family being with him," he continued. "I feel like there's nothing in the world we can't accomplish when we are together."

In terms of wedding planning, the couple both envision it to be something magical.

"Something between when Elphaba flies in the musical Wicked and the finale number of The Greatest Showman," Bennett said, to which Vaughn replied, "So essentially a child's birthday party?"

"I can't wait to get married!" Bennett concluded.
