Bachelor in Paradise stars Noah Erb and Abigail Heringer got engaged this week.
The reality TV stars shared the good news on their Instagram accounts on Wednesday. The proposal took place Tuesday at sunset on La Jolla Beach, San Diego.
The 28-year-old Erb knelt and presented Heringer with a ring from Keyzar Jewelry on the terrace of a house.
The price was surprisingly cheap: the jewel retails for $15,500.
It was a stunning 4 carat oval lab grown diamond engagement ring with a pavé setting and hidden halo.
Lab grown diamonds are sometimes referred to as man-made diamonds because they are created in a laboratory.

Laboratory grown diamonds are physically identical to mined diamonds. The only difference between the two is the place of origin. They have an identical growth process as mined diamonds.
They first form as carbon atoms under high temperature and enormous pressure and then combine to form a crystalline lattice structure.
Once fully formed, they are ground and polished to achieve maximum brilliance. Like mined diamonds, lab grown diamonds come in a variety of colors and clarity levels.
The 14k white gold Pave camellia ring, which Erb designed using Keyzar’s custom jewelry tooling, retails for $15,500.
With Keyzar’s custom jewelry tool, shoppers can create the engagement ring they’ve always imagined.
An extensive digital catalog of engagement ring settings, stone shape and quality is available to explore in 360 degree views and try on virtually.
Ranging from conflict-free natural diamonds and lab-created diamonds to moissanite alternatives, the choice of stones caters to all budgets. Each ring build takes 10-15 business days to complete. And the ring comes with a free appraisal and lifetime guarantee.
Heringer shared in a caption, “I’ve loved you for three summers now honey and I want them all.”
She wore a white off shoulder crop top with white lined pants and he was wearing casual clothes as they hugged and kissed after she accepted his proposal. The photo shoot was conducted by Hannah Brooke.

They met on the seventh season of Bachelor in Paradise, which premiered in August 2021. Erb starred in season 16 of The Bachelorette, while Heringer starred in season 25 of The Bachelor.
Noah spoke to People about the proposal.
“It was stunning and exactly what she was hoping for!” he tells PEOPLE. “Our friends Hannah Sinclair and Emma Burke (photographer and videographer) helped us capture this special moment!”
The proposal was actually “brought forward a month”.
That’s because Heringer decided to move back to Oklahoma earlier than originally planned.
“I called her parents a few days earlier to let them know my plans,” Erb told the website
‘Thomas [Jacobs] helped me with the preparations and set everything up. “The proposal was perfect and everything I wanted to put in to make it special and ours.”
Heringer – who is deaf with a cochlear implant – suspected nothing.

“She thought I was going to play Pickleball with Thomas and invited her and Becca over.” [Kufrin] to enjoy a sunset with us at his friend’s house,” he told the website.
“She had no idea the engagement was taking place until we walked up the stairs to the roof and saw the roses and candles overlooking the sea.”
He added, ‘When she saw the roses while walking up the stairs, she got emotional.’ She cried when she saw the roses and we were both touched while I watched the sunset as I gave my speech.’
He then said, “It couldn’t have gone better and I couldn’t be more grateful to Keyzar and my friends for helping make it happen.”
Erb works as a traveling nurse.
