White, who has been dating the Vampire Diaries star since 2020, proposed to Dobrev in New York City on Oct. 25. He totally took her by surprise as she revealed she thought she was going to a Vogue dinner hosted by Anna Wintour but was actually driven to his surprise romantic setup at a West Village restaurant.

He wrote on Instagram weeks later that he was "still floating" after the romantic night as he shared a behind-the-scenes look at Dobrev's reaction and the celebration afterward.

"I’m beside myself to be with this amazing woman and to be joining her beautiful family!! Our quarantine romance turned into this beautiful relationship and now a forever love," White wrote alongside the video.

Dobrev told Vogue she "went into shock" when she arrived at the restaurant and White got down on one knee. "I just froze and stared at him."

She hard-launched the happy news days later on Instagram, writing, "RIP boyfriend, hello fiancé," alongside a few shots of the proposal, and she later wrote, "My heart is so full and my cheeks hurt from smiling" following the engagement.

Surprises are a big part of the couple's life together — and not just when it comes to their engagement.

Earlier this year, Dobrev told PEOPLE that part of what makes her and White's relationship special is that they "do date night every week" but they alternate who plans it.

"One week I'll plan it and he won't have any idea what we're doing so it's a surprise for him. And then the following week, he'll plan and it'll be a complete surprise for me," she said on PEOPLE in 10 in June.

The routine "keeps things sort of exciting and interesting and dedicates time for the two of us to spend together."
