Jonathan and Deschanel got engaged in August 2023 during a family trip to Scotland, four years after they started dating in 2019 after meeting while filming an episode of James Corden's Carpool Karaoke.
In November 2025, Jonathan told PEOPLE they haven't made "any plans yet" for their wedding.
"We literally haven't made any plans yet. We're busy with all of the kids' stuff, and so we're really just chauffeurs to the kids' social lives," he said. Deschanel shares daughter Elsie, 10, and son Charlie, 9, with her ex-husband Jacob Pechenik.
He noted at the time that "there's a lot of stuff we want to do" for their big day.

"We're not in a rush because we've been together so long, so it's not like we're like, 'We gotta get married,' " she explained. "I'd rather find the right place, the right place and situation, so that it's really special and fun."
