I was on one knee as I looked in your eyes. You're too beautiful for my words to describe. I grabbed your hand and took one last breath.

The pop-punk rocker popped the question with a custom heart-shaped diamond ring from XIV Karats, which he had engraved with “Hi Icon,” the first words he spoke to the “Sk8er Boi” singer, and “Mod + Avril,” according to People. “He knew from the very beginning I wanted a heart-shaped diamond because on the day we met, we had matching heart-shaped pave rings on,” she said to People. “We’ve worn them every day since, so it’s only fitting to have a heart-shaped engagement ring.”

The proposal came just one year after the duo started dating. They met while working together on Lavigne’s latest album, Love Sux. “I knew we had a very strong, unstoppable connection from the first week of writing and working together in the studio,” she explained to People.
