B.I.O.: Katy Marshall, John Winstead

Katy, 29, is a meeting and event planner. John, 32, is a compliance specialist at the U.S. Department of Labor. They'll live in Arlington after the wedding. First Kiss: "On his living room sofa, right after I trashed him playing Wii." How He Proposed: After dinner, he proposed on the sidewalk by their car. "I was going to propose at the restaurant, but it was too crowded and loud. At one point Katy went to the restroom and I pulled out the ring box, but then stuck it back into my pocket, to the chagrin of the watching college kids at the next table." Pet Names: He calls her "sweet pea" and she calls him "lovey bear."
