    Shaun White and Nina Dobrev are "excited" to plan their wedding

    The loved-up couple got engaged in 2024, and they've recently relished the experience of planning their wedding together


    Shaun, 38, told People: "It's very exciting to have new aspirations and new things that we're going after and together. It's very humbling and very exciting, and she's excited.

    "We've gotten a lot of advice from different people who have planned their own weddings and things. So we're definitely gathering information and now trying to see what's going to work best for us in any way."

    Shaun has actually had "fun" planning their big day, and their "next chapter" as a couple.

    The former Olympian shared: "It's like you took that next step and yeah, it's just a fun sort of planning phase of life.

    "Like, 'What's the next steps, and the next chapter and where do we want to be?' It's fun. It's fun to have somebody to plan all that with."

    The celebrity duo are currently on the lookout for a wedding planner, to help them with their preparations for their big day.

    Shaun hopes that the planner can ultimately "bring [their] ideas to life".

    The retired sports star said: "We're still just looking for a planner to plan the wedding.

    "I'm not capable of this and luckily, like, I want to be involved, but logistically I'm not, it's not my strong suit. So I think visually I'm getting involved with what I want, but we're still looking for someone to help bring our ideas to life."

    Nina and Shaun began dating in 2020, and the couple announced their engagement in October 2024.

    Nina previously revealed to Vogue magazine that they got engaged in New York City in late October.

    Recalling Shaun's proposal, the 36-year-old actress confessed: "I went into shock. I just froze and stared at him."

    Shaun - who is a three-time Olympic gold medallist in half-pipe snowboarding - popped the question with a five carat diamond ring. Shaun actually managed to catch his fiancee by surprise.

    Nina - who previously dated Ian Somerhalder, her former 'Vampire Diaries' co-star - recalled: "He said all the right things."
