Two grandparents met as wedding guests. Seven months later, engaged.
Seven months after Jenna and Blake Savacool married in California, two of their wedding guests are engaged. Those guests are Jenna's grandpa and Blake's grandma, introduced for the first time at the couple's ceremony. "We never imagined that introducing our families at our wedding would eventually lead to an engagement," Jenna told Upworthy. The two grandparents fell for each other quickly. Both had been hoping to find someone to spend their later years with, though neither was actively looking the day they met. A TikTok video of the proposal has gone viral, including the moment Jenna's grandpa got down on one knee and then needed a hand getting back up. His new fianc\u00e9e helped him. "They both deserve the world," Jenna wrote. Commenters left their own stories of late-in-life romance, along with one practical observation about the new family tree: "Y'all cousins now."
