Randone and Nielson, both 30, met on the ABC reality show this summer, getting engaged on the season finale after dating for just weeks.
“I was very thick-skinned and hard-shelled when I got to Paradise,” Randone previously told PEOPLE. “I was not myself. I was trying to act like this tough guy, that I had an ego.”
Luckily, Nielson set him straight.
“She knew, based on conversations we had had, that I was a genuine guy with a good heart,” he said. “So she pulled me aside and said, ‘You need to be more self-aware or you’re going to lose friendships here and you’re going to lose me.’ “
“I realized that this woman came out of nowhere to give me direction,” he continued. “I felt it from her heart and I realized that if I don’t change now and be vulnerable, I’m going to lose this incredible woman.”

Nielson said she could sympathize with Randone.
“We were both hard-skinned because we went through tough times,” said Nielson, who, like Randone, grew up without a father and was raised by a single mom. “We bonded over that. I could understand him.”
“I truly believe everything happens for a reason,” she added. “Everything I went through on The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise led me to develop and grow into my own as a person and eventually, it led me to Chris.”
As for their nuptials? Nielson revealed they’re planning to tie the knot somewhere with warm weather.
“I see a beach and bare feet,” she said. “And lots of crystals!”
