Now this is how you end The Bachelorette season on a high note!

Desiree Hartsock stepped out on last night's final episode wearing a dreamy one-shoulder gown by Randi Rahm featuring beaded embellishments and a flattering mermaid silhouette.

We couldn't help but get a tiny bit teary-eyed as the brunette beauty said ‘yes' to Chris Siegfried's proposal with Matt White's romantic ballad "Love & Affection", the standout song from his Shirley album, playing the background.

Aww, what a magical moment!

The 27-year-old bridal stylist looked sophisticated and feminine in the soft pink design paired with Badgley Mischka heels, dazzling earrings by Cezua and a soft voluminous updo—a truly elegant departure from the flashier looks we've seen on her previously. 

"All season long, she liked sequins and shine, but she also liked more simple silhouettes," the show's stylist Cary Fetman told InStyle. "This one was beautiful and felt right on her."

We couldn't agree more!

As for her gorgeous engagement ring, Siegfried got down on one knee and presented his ladylove with an immaculate vintage-style piece featuring a cushion-cut center diamond weighing in at  3.70 carats by Neil Lane.

The18-karat rose gold-and-platinum intertwined band was adorned with 204 small round-cut diamonds, as well.

Lucky girl!

And if you're curious to know what her wedding gown will look like, Desiree promises that it will be a one-of-a-kind dress with special signifcance to her. 

"My entire dream has been to design my own bridal gown collection. So I can design anywhere I want to be. That's what I plan to do...create my jewelry line and bridal line and just allow that time to allow me to do what I love. I will design my own wedding gown," she told us this morning.

We can't wait to see it!
