Ciara and Russell Wilson made their first appearance as an engaged couple on Saturday in Las Vegas when the 30-year-old R&B singer performed for the Cosmopolitan Hotel's Marquee dayclub season opening.

Ciara brought the 27-year-old NFL star to the event, reported E! Online, and the two even gamely posed for the cameras. Ciara reportedly wore a sleeveless black leather crop top together with a black and orange leather miniskirt. She paired the ensemble with knee-high gladiator sandals. The most noticeable thing about Ciara's outfit was her gigantic diamond engagement ring, which she received from her fiance during their recent Seychelles Island getaway.

As for Wilson, he wore a simple black shirt and jeans, which he paired with white sneakers.

Wilson earlier shared a video of their engagement on his Instagram account (@dangerussellwilson) and wrote, "She said yes!!! Since day 1, I knew you were the one. No greater feeling..." The Christian athlete included the hashtag true love.

Meanwhile, Ciara shared the same video on her Twitter account (@ciara) and captioned it, "God is good! Grateful for you @DangRussWilson. You are heaven sent. I'm looking forward to spending forever with you."

She later shared a photo of Wilson getting down on one knee and kissing her hand. She wrote, "I feel complete."

Wilson had been married to his high school sweetheart before, reported CNN, while Ciara was formerly engaged to rapper Future. She and Future have a young son together, also named Future.

Prior to their engagement, the couple already made it to the news when they announced that they would be abstaining from sex before marriage.

"It's just a fun new chapter in life for me," Ciara told PEOPLE about their abstinence pledge. "We talk about everything, and I think that's what you should be able to do as people and partners in a relationship. So, that's what makes it really beautiful."

"He's an awesome guy and a very confident guy. Just like I feel like I'm a woman that knows what I want, he's a man who knows what he wants," she added.
