Congratulations, Michael Welch!

The Twilight star, who played boy next door Michael Newton in the first three films, popped a big question to his model girlfriend Samantha Maggio last night at a Beverly Hills charity event for a youth organization working to end the global water crisis. YouTube stars Andrea Russett, Connor Franta and Kian Lawley were also on hand at the Thirst Project gala to witness the adorable proposal, which happened on stage! 

"Well I had a pretty good night... #ThirstGala," the 27-year-old actor tweeted alongside a picture of the newly engaged couple.

In another snapshot, Welch's leading lady looks absolutely shocked to see her husband-to-be get down on one knee as the audience rises to cheer. 

"There has never been a #thirstgala like this before! Congrats to Michael Welch and his fiancé!" the caption reads

Before the night started, Welch, who has gone on to appear on Scandal and CSI, shared his excitement on Twitter for what was sure another unforgettable moment. 

"Looking forward to seeing my old pal Kristen Stewart tonight at #ThirstGala. :) #TwilightReunion @thirstproject." he tweeted. 

We have our bets on K.Stew catching the bouquet at Michael and Samantha's wedding!
