Wedding bells will be in the air soon for Riverdale star Vanessa Morgan! The 27-year-old actress just got engaged to 23-year-old Chicago White Sox player Michael Kopech.

Both parties took to Instagram this week to share the happy news, with heartfelt captions enough to make you teary-eyed. For Vanessa's part, she posted a shot of the proposal going down, which was fit for a movie--in front of Mooney Falls in Arizona.

Michael shared a video of the proposal, and although we can't hear what words were said because of the waterfall, it looks absolutely adorable. And his caption? We're crying. The lengthy message starts with: "So I’ll start with the obvious: I love you. I love you intensely, passionately, & also at times, recklessly." The baseball player goes on in the caption to explain how Vanessa has stayed by his side through all the ups and downs.

So I’ll start with the obvious: I love you. I love you intensely, passionately, & also at times, recklessly. I make decisions on the spur of the moment (i mean look at how our relationship has gone up to this point). I’m a very non traditional type of person and I know I’ve found my match in you when it comes to that especially. Our relationship probably doesn’t make sense to many people for a sh*t ton of reasons, but we’re not doing it for them. We know this is forever. Why would we wait? lol. You literally stayed by my side when I felt I had lost my mind. You stayed by my side for these seemingly random changes of my life. You stayed when often times I didn’t deserve it. You’ve loved me for ME from day one. Completely unselfishly. You’re undeniably the spark that reignited my fire. You’re deserving of much more than just this moment but this one just felt particularly magical. I’m incredibly humbled by the love that you give and I only hope I can portray a fraction of the love and light that you carry with you. I’ll never have enough words to tell you how much I love you, but I promise to always show you. But for now, I’ll finish this how I started: I love you. SO MUCH. @vanessamorgan
