While Lucy is frantically trying to pull off the Lassiters wedding expo, Mark can see that she is desperately overworked and tries to get her to take a step back.
But when he overhears her talking about how they don't have enough couples getting hitched at the expo, he comes up with the idea to propose.
Thinking that it will help show Lucy how serious he is about making their romance work, Mark puts together his proposal.
However, it doesn't quite all go to plan when the chef hides an engagement ring in a chocolate pudding, which goes all down Lucy's front as he tries to feed it to her!
But thankfully Lucy sees the funny side and she doesn't waste any time saying yes when he gets down on one knee.
With their wedding only a week away, the pair have got a lot to plan... but once the honeymoon is over, will they make their long-distance relationship work?
Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5
