Cage proposed over FaceTime, added Radar Online, and shipped his engagement ring to Shibata through FedEx. 

“She left New York and went back to Kyoto, Japan, and I went back to Nevada, and I haven’t seen her for six months,” Cage said. “We’re really happy together, and we’re really excited to spend that time together, so I finally just said, ‘Look, I wanna marry you,’ and we got engaged on FaceTime.”

The couple had a “very small and intimate” wedding at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas on Feb. 16, 2021 to honor his late father’s birthday, reports Radar Online
