EastEnders star Louisa Lytton let fans in on her plush engagement party on Sunday as she and fiance Ben Bhanvra celebrated their big news.
The happy couple, who have been together just over a year, invited their nearest and dearest to London's Ball Brothers bar to join them basking in the happy moment.
Looking stunning in a long gold gown, the 30-year-old Ruby Allen star cosied up to her dapper American beau, who sported a smart camel suit jacket and a pair of stylish grey chequered trousers.
The room was laden with gold and white balloons, and looked picture perfect for their special day.
In a video from the special day, the loved up pair threw their heads back and laughed as they cut a stunning tiered cake for their guests and were showered with the confetti.
The cake, which was adorned with a 'That's Amore' sign and a fancy gold ribbon, was later offered to guests including The Bill actress Rhea S Bailey and Marianneaneo Georgiou.
It sat alongside a gorgeous gift the couple were given from the loved ones – a framed picture of the moment they got engaged.
Ben got down on one knee during a trip to the Maldives – but their special moment almost went pear shaped.
Speaking exclusively to OK! magazine , Ben said: “I took Louisa to a quiet part of the island where I knew no one else would be around.
“I told her I wanted to fly my drone to get some aerial pictures of the island, although really I wanted it to capture a video of the moment I proposed.
“As soon as I got it up in the air and reached to get the ring from the bag a cleaner walked past and was so mesmerised by the drone he was just stood next to us staring at it for ages.
“I had to wait for him to leave. The cleaner finally disappeared so I got a speaker out of my bag that I was going to use to play a song for when I proposed but the Wi-Fi signal was bad so I couldn’t get it to play.
“By this point I was so frustrated that I just grabbed the ring and got down on one knee!’
Louisa was shocked by the proposal and burst into tears upon seeing Ben pull out the ring.
The pair plan to wed stateside and said they can't wait to crack on with trying for a family.
