Bow Wow and Erica Mena’s relationship generally attracts all types of skepticism and hate, but we honestly can’t see how anyone can hate on these beautiful engagement photos that they shot for People magazine. For the shoot, Erica wore a gorgeous lace gown while Bow Wow wore black slacks, white shirt and a bow-tie.

“I let her spearhead the engagement pictures,” the “CSI: Cyber” actor told the magazine. “They say it’s best to just say ‘yea’ to everything!”

Though they initially had plans to get hitched in April, they have since decided to push the ceremony back to June.

“I’ve got images in my head of how it will be,” he said. “I’m excited … What we have is real genuine.”

The former “106 and Park” host went on to say that he’s not only looking forward to being a great husband, but also a good father to both his daughter, Shai, and Erica’s son, King.

“I wanted to be a better man than my father was,” the actor revealed. “This relationship has definitely changed me as a person.”

As for why he decided to settle down, apparently, he just felt like it was the right time.

“The player life is cool, but I don’t want it to define me,” he said. “I’ve done it all, but being on the road, the groupies, you get burnt out.”

“I’ve known Erica for a long, long time,” he continued, “We noticed we had a lot in common and just took it day by day. You know how it goes, you text one day, then start texting every day.”

Considering that it looks like they’re actually going to follow through with getting married, we’re wishing them the best.
