"But, he was going to put her off till this week to make some grand thing, to make it a big special event," said Ed.
Ed further added, "I told him repeatedly, you could do it on the side of the road, do it any place that makes it a special event...when you get down on one knee and ask her to marry you." "He got her out there, they were about to go out to dinner, and he said, 'let's go out and have a glass of wine'. They got out there and that's when he asked her and it was beautiful," he said.

Ed said he was aware of Travis' plan to propose several months before it happened. He revealed, "We actually went to a thing in KC Sunday night, which was an ESPN airing of 'The Kingdom' and went to that, and his mother and I went with him back to his house for dinner, where Taylor made dinner, and we had a wonderful dinner with them outside on the patio and to just watch the two of them, just crazy about each other. It's truly kind neat."
He further added, "They're just two young people very much in love, cast in a spotlight that they really haven't sought but kind of followed with their success in their respective fields."
