Sarah Hyland's stunning, oval-shaped Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring [1] from former Bachelorette contestant Wells Adams was enough for us to know she'd be a classy bride. Sarah's continuing on the path to pure wedding day perfection with a lovely engagement party that took place over the weekend. Sarah and Wells invited family and friends — Debby Ryan, Brad Goreski, and Sarah's Modern Family costar Jesse Tyler Ferguson all posted pictures — and they dedicated a sweet, short speech to their guests. "Do you want to say anything?" Sarah asked Wells as she passed him the mic. "Well, we paid for all this so drink up I guess!" he said.
Sarah wore a strapless Christian Siriano midi with a sweetheart neckline and defined bodice. She added silver earrings, a simple necklace, and towering white sandals to complete the look. Wells matched her in his tan suit, and they both wore trendy sunglasses, too. Sarah's dress fit her like a glove, hugging her curves with its tight fit but stopping at a modest length. If that sounds just like your style, you can read on for a little inspiration, then shop some similar designs we found — whether you're in the market for an engagement dress, or, you know, you just feel like an outfit that screams modern elegance.
