Mark, an entertainment lawyer for Warner Brothers' in Los Angeles, proposed last week just seven months into their relationship.
New home: Tan will be moving to Los Angeles to be with her future husband.“It was a Romeo and Juliet-themed pro-posal. He left a trail of roses that led all the way from the entrance to the balcony of his bachelor pad in LA. When I got there, it was lit with candles and flowers and he proposed with a ring on bended knee.
“I was in tears by then and, of course, I said yes. We went to our favourite French restaurant afterwards and celebrated with champagne,” she said.
The couple will celebrate their honeymoon in Rome and Vatican City.
