A 26-year-old speaker and minister to athletes and churches, Troutt made his relationship with Prewett Instagram official on May 5, after dating for five months. They both posted sweet carousels to their respective pages with heartfelt captions detailing their love for each other.

Fast forward three months, the couple got engaged on Aug. 31 after dating for less than a year. Troutt proposed in a romantic setting at the Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida.

"Grant was waiting for me and led me out to the beach, where he had candles and flowers and a Bible with my new name on it," Prewett told PEOPLE exclusively. "And the ring of my dreams!" She added, "He was definitely worth the wait."

In September 2022, Prewett and Troutt hosted an engagement party in Dallas. The Bachelor alum shared photos of the event on Instagram, showing off some of the decor, including peach and white balloon installations. Her sweet pictures included some snaps of the couple holding each other as they posed in front of the balloons and a sign featuring the first letter of their names. "You and me forever 🤍," Prewett captioned the post.

On Oct. 29, 2022, Prewett and Troutt were married in front of 400 people at his parents' home in Dallas, Texas. The "classy and elegant" wedding was extravagant from start to finish. There were thousands of white roses and nobody could miss the human-sized cake at the reception.

"It's like heaven knew I needed you," Prewett captioned an image of the newlyweds walking down the isle.

When Prewett and Troutt publicized their relationships on Instagram for the first time in May, they each recalled what the past five months have been like since they initially met. The Bachelor alum even reminisced about their first date together, in which nerves were ever-present.

"It's been special since the first date: when u forgot to open my car door because we were both so nervous, when we barely touched our quesadillas at dinner because of our deep convos and intentional questions," she wrote.

Fortunately, the date ended on a high as she notes that they "[ended] the night riding around listening to Drake in the car on full blast for hours."

Troutt concluded his sentimental love note to Prewett with a similar tidbit, writing, "Could write a book on what I've learned from your heart, but I'll save that for another time. For now just know, like drizzy drake said, 'I got z's for these other girls I'm sleepyyyy.'"

He married Prewett in October 2022

Troutt and Prewett wed on Oct. 29, 2022, at his parents' home in Dallas, Texas. The 400-person wedding included a few Bachelor Nation favorites, including Victoria FullerHannah 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 told PEOPLE. "I have always wanted to get married in the fall and we wanted a short engagement, so it couldn't be more perfect."

The luxurious wedding included thousands of white roses and a human-sized cake. But Prewett stole the show in not one, but two custom gowns by Nardos Design.

The newlyweds enjoyed a luxurious honeymoon at Las Ventanas al Paraiso — a resort in Cabo, Mexico.
