Dave Franco and Alison Brie 'handed out weed pens at party'

Dave Franco and Alison Brie tied the knot in 2017

Dave Franco and Alison Brie handed out "weed pens" at their wedding party.

The 40-year-old actor and Alison, 42, tied the knot in 2017, and Dave has recalled proposing to the brunette beauty during a trip to Big Sur in California.

He told Variety: "We were going to Big Sur, one of our favourite places on Earth. I decided I was going to do it there. And I didn’t have the ring."

Alison then said: "He knew that I wanted our friend Irene Neuwirth to design my ring."

Dave put a lot of time and thought into his proposal.

The actor shared: "The day before the trip, I figured I should have a placeholder ring so I could at least put something on her finger. I went to an antiques store down the street from us and got what I thought was a cool, old ring.

"We first met at Mardi Gras in New Orleans years ago, and Alison had this silver mask on her head the entire weekend. I had written my phone number on the mask, and at the end of the trip, I took it and hid it. She didn’t know I’d kept the mask all these years."

Alison continued: "He calls me out onto the patio. I turn around and Dave’s on one knee in a Zorro mask, holding a weird box with an old rock in it. I had no idea what was going on."

The Hollywood duo wanted to have a small, lowkey wedding ceremony, but they still decided to throw a party with their friends.

Dave shared: "We wanted people to let loose and go crazy. Much more than they did. We were handing out weed pens, which just led to everyone bringing home multiple to-go pizzas."

Dave and Alison always had a clear idea of what they wanted their wedding day to look like. And the actor admits that it was one of the best days of their lives.

He said: "Neither of us were ever big into weddings. Like, this was not a super important thing to us. At the end of the day, we did it exactly how we wanted. In a cheesy way, that ended up being one of the best days of our lives."
