CNN)—Wedding bells are on the horizon for Bristol Palin and 2011 Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer.
Meyer, 26, proposed to Palin, 24, Friday night at a Rascal Flatts concert, Palin said on her blog.
"The lead singer, Gary LeVox, dedicated 'Bless the Broken Road' to us, and then Dakota got down on one knee and proposed!" she wrote. "It's amazing to see what happens when you place everything in life in God's hands."
Meyer received the nation's highest military honor for braving enemy fire in 2009 to recover 36 American and Afghan troops in Afghanistan. He was the third living recipient -- and the first Marine -- to be awarded the Medal of Honor for actions in Iraq or Afghanistan.
Palin, the oldest daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, has stayed in the public eye since her mother's failed vice presidential bid through appearances on "Dancing with the Stars" and a Lifetime show about raising her son, "Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp."
She also released a best-selling memoir in 2011, "Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far." She was previously engaged to Tripp's father, Levi Johnston.
She and Meyer met when he was visited Alaska to film "Amazing America," Sarah Palin's show on Sportsman Channel, Bristol Palin said in her blog post.
"He met Tripp during that time, and I've seen him in a few places where our paths have crossed since. He's visited us in Alaska, and I've visited his wonderful family in Kentucky," she wrote. "He's wonderful with Tripp and I'm so proud to be marrying him."

...and of course, any children will be ‘nonwhite’ delighting the multicultural crowd </S>
I was just thinking, Todd is no slouch either. It would be fun to sit at a campfire with those two guys and Sarah.
How many seconds before the PDS libs start attacking a Medal of Honor recipient for marrying Bristol?
Yes, that is indeed awesome!
Congratulations to them.
Take that, Levi!
Do we need the language? There are ladies present.
If only we had a guy like that as President. That is a guy who puts up with no BS from these animals unlike the current wuss who “makes deals” with these psychopaths or says he’s going to “manage and degrade” them.
Ha ha! You got me! I looked at your page. Well I’ll tell you, I don’t like foul language myself, but it has its time and place in certain situations. And it certainly has its place when describing ISIS although the “A” word is going a little too easy with the likes of them if you ask me. And BTW you are not an old lady. Such a thing doesn’t exist. You are merely wise. Something that takes a good portion of a persons life to achieve and when it is, you have got one of the greatest gifts of life. I’m 52 I would not trade a single day for the idiocy of my youth. Look at Washington, you’d be hard pressed to find a single person there who has an ounce of wisdom. It amazes when I hear some of them talk how it reminds me how I use to think when I was 16, I can see right through them.
Of course, I know that there must be such talk on the battlefield, and that’s fine, but I’ll bet those fellows don’t talk that way in front of their mothers.
Thank you for understanding my view of this.
Thank you for your kind words. God bless you.
They both look great and love Meyer’s smiles. My favorite Rascal Flatts song is My Wish For You (my son gets his Marine face on when I play it).
For Bristol and Meyer,
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
And each road leads you where you want to go
And if you’re faced with the choice and you have to choose
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
And if one door opens to another door closed
I hope you keep on walkin’ ‘til you find the window
If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
But more than anything, more than anything
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you’re out there gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish
I hope you never look back but you never forget
All the ones who love you and the place you left
I hope you always forgive and you never regret
And you help somebody every chance you get
Oh, you’d find God’s grace in every mistake
And always give more than you take
But more than anything, yeah more than anything
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you’re out there gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish, yeah yeah
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
You never need to carry more than you can hold
And while you’re out there gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to
I hope you know somebody loves you
And wants the same things too
Yeah, this is my wish
(My wish for you)
This is my wish
(My wish for you)
I hope you know somebody loves you
(My wish for you)
May all your dreams stay big
(My wish for you)
I usually change the word wish to “prayer” but if you want to listen
