Two "Love and Hip Hop" stars are headed down the aisle, because Safaree and Erica Mena are reportedly engaged.
The rapper dropped down on one knee to pop the question on Christmas Eve at Mena's home in Atlanta, according to TMZ.
The two confirmed the news by posting images of the 14 carat diamond engagement ring on their Instagram pages.
Safaree also revealed the details of the elaborate proposal, which included a performance from 112’s Daron Jones and a fireworks show.
“Been planning this since your Birthday,” he wrote. “From Center stone shopping to Ring design to Sneaking rings on your fingers in your sleep to get your ring size, ordering 10,000 rose petals 200 candles, a Fireworks show in your backyard.”
Safaree currently appears on the New York version of the “Love and Hip Hop” series, and Mena is a cast member of the Atlanta installment.
The two began dating earlier this year. No word yet on when the wedding will take place.
