Although Bryan's mom wasn't super excited about the idea of her son marrying someone after just a few weeks of getting to know them, as shown during during hometowns, Rachel powered through and doubled down on her feelings for Bryan.
They got engaged at the end of the season.
Rachel chose Bryan when it came down to her final two in the finale, and after he proposed, the pair continued to work on their relationship outside of the show. Unlike some other couples who show up to After the Final Rose with stories of breaking up after the cameras stopped rolling, Bryan and Rachel were in it for the long haul with plans to live together and begin their life together with no more interruptions.

Rachel revealed on a podcast that she and Bryan had plans to start a family.
In August 2023, Rachel appeared on Off the Vine, fellow Bachelorette alum Kaitlyn Bristowe's podcast. Rachel revealed that her plan for the next several years was for her and Bryan to "work less" and start a family.
