Love is in the air this holiday season as a Hollywood couple got engaged on Christmas Eve.
Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello are engaged, according to E! News. The pair, who has started dating in July, have yet to publicly announce the news, but a source tells the website that the "True Blood" actor popped the question on Christmas Eve at sunset in Hawaii, where the two were on vacation with Vergara's family.
"I've never seen two people so in love," said the source, "The way they talk to each other, touch each other. It's incredible."

The pair started dating following the end of Vergara's engagement to Nick Loeb. Loeb had only nice things to say about his former fiancée following the news of her engagement to Manganiello, and told Us Weekly, "She is beautiful and majestic and therefore to be loved. Beyond all else in life she deserves happiness, the kind that only true love can bring."
A source told People that Manganiello wanted to propose to Vergara in front of her family, including her 22-year old son Manolo.
"He said he wanted to keep it private," said the source. "He did seem genuinely nervous. He said that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity with a one-in-a-million woman."
They also celebrated Manganiello's 38th birthday on the island, and the 'Modern Family' actress took to Twitter and wrote, "Happy happy birthday to my love and best friend…to the one that makes me laugh like crazy! Have a healthy wonderful year babe!"
On Dec. 25, the pair was photographed lounging outside the St. Regis Princeville Resort, and a huge, oval shaped diamond ring was in full display on Vergara's hand.
This will be the first marriage for Manganiello and a second for Vergara.
