Lovato shared a long and touching tribute to her new fiancé on Instagram." When I was a little girl, my own father always called me his "little partner" - something that might have sounded odd if it weren't for his Southern cowboy-like accent. To me, it meant "perfect. And today, that word means perfect again, but today I'm officially going to be someone else's partner."[3

"@maxehrich-the moment I met you, I knew I loved you. It was something I couldn't explain to anyone who hadn't experienced it firsthand, but luckily so did you," Lovato continued. 'Never in my life have I felt so unconditionally loved by anyone, flaws and all (except my parents). You don't pressure me to be anything other than who I am. And you make me want to be the best I can be. I am honored to have been accepted into your marriage. I love you more than a caption can express, but I am elated to start a family and start a life with you. I love you forever. My partner. Here's to our future!" (5]

In his Instagram post, Erich wrote, "You are every love song, every movie, every lyric, every poem, every life partner I dream of being, and then some. Words cannot express how much I will love you forever and ever and ever. Without the miracle that you are my wife, there would not be one more second spent on this earth.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh jeuejfjqjweuvu I am so excited." You are the most beautiful person in the whole world, inside and out." "I couldn't be more grateful to God for bringing us together."

"I LOVE YOU SO MUCH @ddlovato AND WILL FOREVER CHERISH YOUR PURE, BEAUTIFUL, INFINITE SOUL," Erich concluded.

Congratulations to the happy couple! Readers, it's okay if you need time to cry!
