Although the couple seemed to be as steady and as happy together as any other Hollywood couple (if not more), Ellen's proposal was only made possible after the California Supreme Court ruled in favor of same-sex marriages. It was shortly after this important decision that Ellen proposed to Portia. The proposal took place at their house after Portia brought back a goldfish she had rescued from a TV shoot and made it a home. Portia reminisces that "we were watching the fish and she [Ellen] said: 'This is a pretty romantic moment, right?' And I said, 'Every moment with you is romantic', and that is when she gave me the ring". Ellen popped the question with a 3 carat marquise cut diamond engagement ring accented with small pink diamonds on either side,

designed by famous jeweler to the stars - Neil Lane. Portia was quoted saying that getting married "is not something we've ever taken for granted. I was already planning on spending the rest of my life with her. But until you're married, you just don't know. It feels wonderful". The wedding between Ellen (50) and Portia (35) took place in August of 2008 at their home in L.A. in front of their closest friends and family. Portia wore a beautiful chiffon pale pink gown to match her stunning and delicate diamond engagement ring.
