Justin Baldoni Recalls His 27-Minute Long Proposal Video to Wife Emily: ‘My First Movie, Actually’

Justin Baldoni still remembers his nearly 30-minute marriage proposal to his wife Emily Baldoni.

While visiting Live with Kelly and Mark on Tuesday, Dec. 10, to promote the Netflix release of It Ends with Us, the actor and filmmaker, 40, complimented the show hosts — who are married in real life — before discussing the beginning of his own marriage.

As Justin sat down for his interview, he called Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos “adorable,” explaining that their union is inspiring.

Ripa, 54, and Consuelos, who have been married since 1996, noted that Justin and Emily have also been together for a long time, and celebrated 11 years of marriage in July.

“In Hollywood, that’s like, 70 years or something,” he added of their 11-year marriage.

While on the topic of Emily, Ripa thought it would be a great time to show viewers how Justin popped the question.

“So you went viral when you got engaged. There was a social media post of your engagement. Apparently you’re lip syncing,” Ripa added before rolling a shortened version of the 27-minute proposal.

Though the televised version started with a hilarious clip of Justin dressed in white, tossing feathers while singing in a pretend boy band — reminiscent of the Backstreet Boys’ “I Want It That Way” music video — the actual version started out a bit more toned down.

Justin explains in the original clip that he set up hidden cameras in Blu Jam Cafe on April 13, 2013, the restaurant where they had their first date.

He’d told Emily he was running late, but rented out the restaurant for a special occasion.

As she sat down, his pre-filmed proposal began to play. In the bottom of his camera shot was a real-time video of her reactions.

The video, which included a mini movie of a secret agent telling Justin to meet Emily at Blu Jam Cafe, also showed a montage of their happiest moments before he made it to the restaurant to propose in person.

After the shortened version played on Live, Consuelos, 53, asked Justin if he knew the guys in the music video scenes. The Jane the Virgin star happily said the men were some of his best friends.

"It was a 27-minute long proposal video. It was my first movie, actually," Justin said.

“It was a big joke. The whole idea was that I failed at all these proposals because I was proposing in a way that I wanted versus the way she wanted,” he explained.

“Which is something that I’ve learned in marriage, as I’m sure you guys have learned: how to love somebody in the way that they want to be loved versus the way we wanted to be loved. So that was the whole journey of the proposal."

It Ends With Us is now available to stream on Netflix.
