Sink your teeth into this Nina Dobrev and Shaun White's very special date night.

The Vampire Diaries alum and Olympic gold medalist attended the Earthshot Prize Awards in Cape Town, South Africa Nov. 6, marking their first red carpet appearance since getting engaged last month. Nina, 35, walked the green carpet in a strapless red gown while Shaun, 38, sported a black tux.

The actress and pro snowboarder, who have been in a relationship for five years, announced their engagement Oct. 30.

"She said yes," Shaun wrote on Instagram at the time, including photos off his romantic candlelight proposal, while Nina later added in her own post, “RIP Boyfriend, hello fiancé."

A day later, the engaged couple stepped out together for Kendall Jenner’s Halloween Party while dressed as Batman characters Catwoman and the Riddler.

And while they only just got engaged, Shaun detailed his previously attempts to pop the question earlier this year. The athlete had originally hoped to propose to Nina this past summer, as he told Vogue, but the plan was interrupted when the Love Hard actress suffered a serious knee fracture in a May a biking accident that landed her in the hospital and led to months of rehabilitation.

Shaun also thought about proposing to Nina during their current trip to South Africa, but he felt she would guess it would happen because her friends kept asking about him popping the question. And he wanted to surprise her.

So for his actual proposal, Shaun ultimately picked a day in October and created a fake invitation for Nina to attend an intimate dinner with Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour. And as the actress told the outlet, "He made the invite look so legitimate."

When she opened the door, Anna was not there, of course. But there was Shaun, standing under an arch of white roses. "I went into shock," she said. "I just froze and stared at him."

Nina added about his proposal, "He said all the right things."
