John Thompson and Sugar Good tied the knot at the Dunkin' drive-thru in Edmond, Oklahoma, where they first met over three years ago.
Thompson went through the drive-thru almost every morning for a year before Good, the general manager, worked up the nerve to give him her number.
He proposed to Good in April while dropping her off for her morning shift in the Dunkin' parking lot at 3 a.m.
The couple knew they wanted to celebrate their special day at the place that brought them together and said "I do" with a doughnut cake and doughnut bouquet.
It began just like any other morning at the Dunkin' drive-thru. John Thompson was in his red truck, patiently waiting his turn. He ordered his usual, a large hot coffee with cream and sugar, and made his way to the window.
Waiting for him was his girlfriend Sugar Good, wearing her Dunkin' baseball hat and a ponytail, ready to say "I do."
Insider spoke with both Good, 49, and Thompson, 45, to find out how a mutual crush blossomed into love, and why the couple always knew they wanted to tie the knot at Dunkin' Donuts.
