Since then, they've starred in "Love at Sea" and are now a part of their own Hallmark Channel movie franchise, "Picture Perfect Mysteries." On top of that, the duo just signed a multi-picture overall deal at Hallmark Media.

"Hallmark has become a second home for our family. Over the last four years they have given us opportunities to grow as actors and producers all while raising our children, even if it means having the family on set! Developing projects alongside them has been a highlight of our careers thus far. We are thrilled to be able to continue creating content that is family friendly and current, while maintaining its core values that we love so much. Hallmark is special and we are looking forward to many more projects together," the couple said in a statement.

2. Victor Webster & Shantel VanSanten

Victor Webster and Shantel VanSanten met on the set of their 2017 Hallmark movie "Love Blossoms" and after a year of friendship, things took a romantic turn. They began dating and just a few years later, Victor popped the question. In 2022, the couple tied the knot.

"We met while playing love interests on a movie that shot all over Belgium. While it felt like it was set up to create pure love -- from filming in a foreign country to the castle we were staying in while shooting to the name of the film, 'Love Blossoms.' While working, we were just friends and in fact I helped him with his dating life." It wasn't until the following year that their relationship took a "romantic turn," she told Brides.

3. Kevin McGarry & Kayla Wallace

Kevin McGarry and Kayla Wallace made their Hallmark debut in 2019 as part of the cast of "When Calls the Heart." Just a year later, they confirmed their relationship on social media, sharing a series of sweet Polaroid photos together. Since sharing their romance with the world, the couple have also starred in "Feeling Butterflies" and "My Grown-Up Christmas List."

"It's nice to work so closely with somebody that I know so well and see that the way Kevin works more in detail than just running lines together for auditions or doing the few scenes that we have on 'When Calls the Heart.' It was really fun to spend not just one whole movie working together, but two movies working together, where we get to dive into some different characters and play out these storylines," Kayla told TV Fanatic.

4. Daniel Stine & Rachel Hendrix

Daniel Stine and Rachel Hendrix first connected on the set of their 2016 film "Virginia Minnesota." They soon began dating and went on to star in Hallmark's "Midway to Love."
