“Love Is Blind” star Jessica Batten is finally ready to say “I do.”

After infamously ending her engagement to Mark Cuevas on the Netflix reality show by saying “I don’t” at the altar, Batten, 34, accepted a proposal from her boyfriend, Benjamin McGrath, on Sept. 10, according to a report. 

“I don’t think it has quite sunk in, but I’m definitely floating somewhere on cloud nine,” Batten told People on Thursday. “It’s been really, really exciting!”

The TV personality said that McGrath, 35, popped the question at Temecula, California’s Akash Winery, where the pair later celebrated with family members and close friends. 

Batten — who has been dating the doctor for a year-and-a-half — said that his proposal came as a total surprise. 

“So I got in the car with my dad and my stepmom to head to the winery, and I could tell my dad was prolonging things,” she told People. “I think Ben was still setting up.”

“We make it out to the winery, and it was just a gorgeous night. I walk out and this woman meets me and takes my purse, which I thought was a little strange,” she said. “She said, ‘Let me escort you down into the vineyard.’ I’m like, ‘Oh we’re getting a wine tour!'”

Batten said that she had a feeling McGrath would be getting down on one knee once she saw him standing in the middle of an aisle of grapes decorated with white rose petals. Moments later, he asked for her hand in marriage with a round brilliant ring from Mark Broumand

“I just started getting overwhelmed with emotion. When I walked down, the first thing he said was, ‘I want you to remember this moment for the rest of your life,’” she told People.

She responded to the big question by reciting a line from the couple’s favorite TV show, “Suits.” 

“We had watched eight or nine seasons together when we were long distance: ‘Do I have brains in my head? Do I have a heart in my chest?’” she said. “So that’s what I said instead of ‘yes.’ We were both crying!”

After toasting to her engagement with loved ones, Batten plans to share the happy news with some of her “Love Is Blind” castmates. 

“I’ll probably reach out to Gigi [Gibelli], Diamond [Jack] and Kelly [Chase] and let them know,” she told the magazine. “But so far we’re still on family. We both have pretty big families and a lot of close friends. But yeah, I think I’ll definitely let those three know, as well as Kenny [Barnes].”
