Peter Dinklage after accepting award. 

Along with the crowd&#39;s&nbsp;excitement for actors who nabbed the big awards at the ceremony, director Glenn Weiss kicked it up a notch by proposing, live, to his girlfriend Jan Svendsen.&nbsp;

Presenting her with his mother&rsquo;s ring, a stunned and surprised Svendsen accepted the proposal to the cheers of the audience.&nbsp;

&quot;You can&rsquo;t come in and plan this. It became [a] thought, and the thought picked up steam,&rdquo; Weiss <a href="https://people.com/tv/glenn-weiss-talks-emmys-2018-proposal-no-plan-b/" target="_blank">explained</a>. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s how we got here. The timing just lined up very nicely, and it was a really magical moment.&rdquo;

With her signature sense of humor, &quot;Little did I dream then, that I would be here and it&#39;s incredible that I&#39;m still in this business and that you are still putting up with me,&quot; White said. &quot;I am thanking you. It&#39;s incredible that you can stay in a career this long and still have people put up with you. I wish they did that at home.&quot;

Notably, this year&rsquo;s group of award nominees included a large number of non-white actors. Sandra Oh made history as the first woman of Asian descent to be nominated for lead actress in a drama series, along with actors Thandie Newton and Darren Criss being among the actors of color to win an award.
