Regardless, Michael and Ali met on June 15, 2020, picking up Long Beach's best pizza (since scientifically proven via a very thorough tasting competition) for a picnic by the Lion Lighthouse. After stopping for gas and a gallon of milk, the night wrapped up -- but their coupling was just getting started.

Three days before our happy couple's one-year anniversary, Ali and Michael headed for a date night in Laguna Beach with the dapper duo Melanie and Meisam. Michael was acting a little off, and Ali was getting a little cranky. After finding the perfect spot for a few photos, Ali waited (...and waited) for Michael to pose alongside her. About to suggest he just hurry up and join her, Michael completely took Ali by surprise when he dropped to one knee and popped THE question. Just about all Ali remembers is deliberately saying, "YES!" -- and that Mel and Mase were in on it the whole time.
