2017 had its fair share of celebrity relationship drama, from the Anna Faris/Chris Pratt split to Jenny Slate’s on-again, off-again, wonderfully on-again romance with Chris Evans. But plenty of famous people found True, Everlasting, Famous Love, and got engaged! Meghan Markle, two Game of Thrones couples, and Cardi B all flaunted some beautiful, massive, Hollywood-worthy engagement rings. Let’s take a walk down memory lane, shall we?

Chiara Ferragni, Engaged in May

The “Blonde Salad” blogger was surprised by her fiancé, the singer Fedez, with an onstage proposal at a Verona, Italy, concert. They’re now expecting a child.

Emily VanCamp, Engaged in May

Sophie Turner, Engaged in October

Former Disney heartthrob Joe Jonas proposed to Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner — and then fellow Game of Thrones cast members and Jonas family/cast members shared the same staged photo of the ring on social media. Romance!

Keyshia Ka’oir Davis, Married in October

Technically, model Ka’oir Davis and Gucci Mane tied the knot in 2017. So while their wedding bands don’t necessarily belong on this list, they’re so sparkly that they warrant an exception. Their wedding was … icy. Her bouquet was made of diamonds, her dress was embellished with crystals, and she wore a sparkly headpiece. Their wedding bands were no exception to the More Is More rule.

Caitlin McHugh, Engaged in October

Who knew John Stamos was such a softie? The actor planned a Disney-themed proposal for fiancée Caitlin McHugh, complete with a Little Mermaid serenade. The proposal was playful, but the ring is serious bling.

Meghan Markle, Engaged in November
