All American Morning News with Eric Scott

4/20/2012 (TheBoot.com) — When Jake Owen spontaneously proposedto

his girlfriend, Lacey Buchanan, during a concert in his hometown of Vero Beach, Fla., earlier this month, he had to pop the question without a ring. Thankfully, he wasted no time in heading to the jeweler, and his new fiancée now boasts a big diamond on her ring finger.

“I told her, ‘The sparkle is never going to go away in that ring, and I don’t want our sparkle to ever go away either,'” he tells People magazine. “On your darkest days, I want you to look at it and see that there’s a glimmer of light in it. I want it to always remind you of the possibilities of our relationship.”
