First paparazzi article

It's from last night when they had dinner with Ben and Lauren. Ben's jacket and Lauren's romper and pink stiletto is visible in a few pics.

ETA: @StacyNor, Oops! Saw your post after posting.

Correction dailymail, they know exactly where they are going to live. As per one of their interviews, they have a place in L.A.

I love that she's carrying a Céline bag, way to support your French Canadian artist!

As much as I think the yellow bracelet was reassurance to Vanessa I also think it was for Nick himself to give himself hope that at the end of it all it would be worth it because of Vanessa. It's no coincidence that that bracelet was from their first date and when he cried and told Vanessa that she makes him feel optimistic -- she gave him hope that he would find his happiness at the end of it all -- and he did.

So both things... a way to reassure her and a way to remind himself on their journey -- because Nick made it so that it wasn't him only making the choices, he empowered and encouraged Vanessa to do the same and that it was her journey too... which is why I think it can appear like she was almost like a Bette but to me it wasn't the case because Nick was the one who continually said this is equal and wanted a give and take and partnership all along the way (through life and beyond this show) and that Vanessa made the choice for herself to choose Nick just like he chose her. It's why in the end at FRC when Vanessa says "I'm glad that you chose me" Nick said to Vanessa "thank YOU for choosing me" -- because they chose each other.

What's really awesome is that they are still choosing each other even after the show. The yellow bracelet (journey relating to the Bachelor) has been replaced with the bracelet that has Vanessa's name on it that Nick is currently wearing (post-Bachelor journey) and he's been wearing during DWTS practice. So I think it's Nick's way of saying "I am Vanessa's and she is mine" (they are are each other's) and once again they're on a journey together -- as a Team -- and the new bracelet symbolizes this new chapter in their life and a new journey they are on together with Nick reassuring Vanessa and also as a way to keep Vanessa close wherever he is.

It's really beautiful when I think about it how these two are...  

I wonder if the "Vanessa" bracelet is a present from Bella or from Vanessa's class. Seems to have sentimental value to Nick, but he's always been sentimental like that (proof that he hasn't changed since we met him during his first Bette season).

So many of Nick's family are now following Vanessa and posting about Nick and Vanessa. They obviously love and adore her IMO given their posts

Here's Sam's post

The magical proposal        

3 moments stood out to me:
First Nick's reaction the moment Vanessa opened the door.  
Vanessa's reaction when Nick's says he's in love with her like she was on cloud nine.      (Can someone please make a GIF oh her reaction   )
And finally the kiss on the forhead when he was down on one knee.

Her entrance is not the most glamorous, but BOY Nick's reaction in seeing her takes my breath away alongside him.

I love their proposal too but I really want to see it in the order that it happened. Basically, Vanessa speaking first followed by Nick's proposal and I think the last bit of Vanessa's speech about listening more was after Nick. TPTB thought it'll be more dramatic the way they spliced it but I don't think worked as much as they thought it would.
