Prewett and Troutt got engaged in July 2022 after eight months of dating and tied the knot just three months later in October 2022.

During their wedding — which was held at Troutt's parents' home in Dallas, Texas — the pair exchanged vows in front of 400 friends and family members, including Bachelor Nation favorites Victoria Fuller, Hannah Ann Sluss and Kelley Flanagan.

"We chose this location because it's unique and special to us and having all our friends and family there means so much," Prewett exclusively told PEOPLE of the celebration. "I have always wanted to get married in the fall and we wanted a short engagement, so it couldn't be more perfect."

The couple got engaged a few days before their nine-month anniversary.

Prewett said she "had no idea the proposal was coming," but her future husband's "plans changed multiple times" before he settled on his final idea. It took him weeks to plan the beachside proposal, and he "constantly" met with Prewett's family and friends to get it right.

"He actually was supposed to come with me and my friends to Florida but he got sick and wasn't able to make it," she explained to PEOPLE at the time. "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."

"In that moment, I knew," she added.

Fans first came to know Prewett — a speaker, writer and social media influencer — as a contestant on Peter Weber's Bachelor season, airing in 2020. She ended up being the runner-up to Hannah Ann Sluss, though Prewett briefly reconciled with Weber after he ended his engagement to Sluss.

"I have waited for this day my whole life," she said. "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."
