Amber Portwood is getting ready to head down the aisle!

Teen Mom fans who watched the dramatic new trailer for the upcoming series' new season last week saw the 24-year-old OG reality star receiving a proposal from her boyfriend Matt Baier, but were left guessing as to whether or not she said yes.

Well, spoiler alert! Amber said yes!

Portwood confirms to E! News that she is in wedding mode and spills some details about her upcoming nuptials to her boyfriend, who popped the question back in November.

Watch: "Teen Mom" Amber Portwood Dishes on New Life!

"My life now with my new fiancé is amazing and our relationship is completely different than what mine and Gary [Shirley]'s was," she tells E! News. "There's not really fighting or anything like that. It's not perfect, but we're so happy together. I never thought I could find another man that could make me feel love again, honestly. I feel more love for him than I ever have for anybody."

And what's even better? Her daughter Leah loves him, too! "Boo Boo loves him. They have this natural connection. How? I have no clue. But it's just amazing to me because I was really scared that, 'What if Boo Boo doesn't like him?'"

As far as getting down to the nitty-gritty, Amber and Matt are taking things somewhat slow, but have still given themselves a time table.

"We know it's gonna be within the year. We just moved in together a couple months ago, so we really want to learn everything about each other and live this life right now and just make sure everything's straight before we jump the gun on something because obviously, we didn't know each other that long before we got engaged, but we do know we love each other so much and we don't want anybody else in the world, so we are sure we will be married. We just don't know when."

Congrats to the lovebirds!
