One Southern Charm castmember is ready to say "I do."
Longtime Bravo star Rodrigo Reyes recently got engaged to partner Tyler Dugas after nine years of dating.
"It was beautiful," Reyes told People in an interview published Sept. 17 after proposing in Santorini, Greece last month. "We're friendly with the owners of this spot known for being the No. 1 cocktail bar in Europe, so they gave us our own private area where we could watch the sunset. And while we were there, my friend passed me the ring she had been carrying for me in her purse."
"I asked Tyler if he would marry me and his is response was solid gold," the interior designer added. "He said, 'Sure, let's do it.'"
And because the couple initially planned the trip to celebrate Reyes' 40th birthday with friends, Dugas didn't expect his boyfriend to pop the question.
"He was completely, completely in shock," Reyes noted. "He was just kind of dumbstruck. Eventually I was like, 'Well, you never said yes.' And then he proceeded to spend the next 15 minutes crying about how happy he was."
When it came to picking a ring, the Charleston native opted for something classic.
"I just wanted something simple and timeless," Reyes told the outlet. "I'm a traditional, gay southern. You can't go wrong with a solid gold band, so that's what I picked."
As for wedding planning, the couple are in the very early stages of brainstorming ideas for the ceremony.
"We talked about it on a walk the other day and between our family and our friends, we have so many people in our lives we'd want to invite," Reyes noted. "I was like, 'Wait a minute. your family is huge, my family is huge. That alone is going to be 100 people, not even including all our friends.' So, I don't know. We gotta really think this out. Maybe we elope and have a big party?"
However, all that matters is that Reyes gets to spend the rest of his life with his one true love.
"Tyler is the best guy," he gushed. "He probably the sweetest, most considerate person that I've ever met. He literally puts himself last for everybody else. Just a very kind, selfless person in like all aspects of life: Work, personal life, his family, his friends. He's one of the greatest people anyone will ever meet."
