"Love Is Blind" cast members Matt Barnett and Amber Pike got engaged before ever seeing each other on season one of the popular Netflix reality show.

Trusting the bond they formed while they were in their respective "pods," Pike accepted Barnett's proposal. Only then were they given an opportunity to meet in person for the first time.

"I couldn't be happier right now," Pike said in a confessional after seeing Barnett face-to-face in episode three.

The moment serves as a reminder for the couple, now out of the pods and going on their third year of marriage, of why they fell in love in the first place.

Pike told Insider that they haven't rewatched the entirety of their season, as they both explored connections with other people before choosing each other.

"It's not like it's a home video that we go back to, to relive," she said.

Pike does, however, find herself revisiting the scene in which she met her husband outside of the pods for the first time, especially when she's upset with him.

"I do have moments where I get mad at Matt and I will go back and watch the first time we saw each other so I'm not as angry," she said.

Pike added, "I've played that one episode a few times."

At a reunion party celebrating the couples' two-year anniversaries, he surprised Pike with a video montage of himself kissing her every morning.

He told Insider that he initially got the idea for the video after he and Pike had an argument before bed one evening.

"I was like, 'How can I show Amber, just in the future, that I still care for her every day even if we have a bad day where we argue or fight?'" Barnett recalled.

So, he discretely recorded himself kissing Pike before he left for work to show that "no matter how angry we are at each other when we go to bed, we still wake up happy with each other."
