'I knew her favorite cut. I think it's super classy, and I had a picture in my head of what I wanted it to look like with the pave flooding down the side of the ring,' he said.

She added, 'I had complete trust in Jordan to come up with something beautiful! It's gorgeous, and I couldn't be happier with it.'

'It's a really special place for us, and when we started to pull into the neighborhood he was just going on about how we've been friends for so long, and I wasn't really picking up on it,' says Woods. 

'Then we pulled into my parents' house and I was like, "What is that?" We stopped, got out of the car and Jordan walked me to our backyard where there's a little deck over the pond.'

Their friend Nicholas 'popped out of the woods' and sang their favorite song Best Part by Daniel Caesar, Woods told the site. 

Tears of joy: 'I'm an emotional person, so I was sobbing as well,' he told People

They have known each other since they were 13 years old, and 'we were best friends growing up,' revealed the star. 

Things got romantic and two months later he knew that she was wife material.

'It was the biggest surprise of my life!' she said. 'I'm a very hard person to surprise so the fact that he pulled it off, kudos to you, babe.'

They will take their time before getting married. 

'A year gives us plenty of time for us to plan a wedding without it being super stressful,' says Fisher. 'We want it to be fun and full of love and excitement.' 

Woods is not in the entertainment field.

'His goal in life is to have a family,' she said.

'I'm not an actress or in the entertainment industry in any way, so it was really important for me to find a husband that was grounded and had goals that were the same as mine.

'For us to both agree that family was the most important thing that we get out of life was a big sign for me.'
