\n\tThe Golden Bachelor<\/a> producers were allegedly hoping for another Golden Wedding.<\/p>\n

\n\tAhead of November 12\u2019s finale episode, The Sun<\/a> reported that ABC was \u201calready made arrangements\u201d for The Golden Bachelor lead, Mel Owens, to marry his final choice, Peg Munson, in a televised wedding ceremony.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the finale, Mel, 66, gave his final rose to Peg<\/a>, a 62-year-old retired firefighter, making her the winner of The Golden Bachelor season 2. However, he didn\u2019t quite propose. <\/p>\n

\n\tMel offered Peg a promise ring of sorts, telling her, \u201cI have a ring, and this represents our commitment to love, to give us time to figure out together what our future holds. What do you think?\u201d Peg accepted the ring, whatever it means, and told cameras: \u201cI\u2019m not for everybody. He\u2019s not for everybody. But we\u2019re definitely for each other!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Mel reportedly kept producers guessing about whether he would pop the question, the show was hoping to get Mel and Peg down the aisle in an event \u201csimilar\u201d to season 1\u2019s Golden Wedding between Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist, with a few changes.<\/p>\n

\n\tGerry and Theresa married in early 2024 in a lavish Palm Springs wedding three months after getting engaged at the end of the first season of The Golden Bachelor. The event, which aired live on ABC hosted several Bachelor Nation<\/a> stars as well as the couple\u2019s close family.<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, in April 2024, after just three months of marriage, Theresa and Gerry announced their divorce, a split which has since turned nasty<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe network learned a lot with the Gerry wedding and obviously that didn\u2019t end up working out,\u201d The Sun\u2019s source added. \u201cThough the wedding itself went off well. They\u2019re going to allow Mel to have more control over the ceremony and make it more of a personal touch.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Golden Bachelorette lead, Joan Vassos, is still engaged to her winner<\/a>, Chock Chapple, but the pair has no immediate wedding plans. This means the stakes are high for Mel and Peg, and the network doesn\u2019t want another failed marriage on their hands. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThey want to make it his day and Peg\u2019s day. Whereas Gerry\u2019s wedding was basically all planned by ABC and the couple just showed up and did what they were told.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Mel and Peg didn\u2019t seem to get fully engaged, producers are reportedly happy with the outcome. The source said, \u201cIt was a huge relief he ended up going through with it. Again, everyone is thrilled, if not even surprised, behind the scenes.\u201d<\/p>\n
