Dwyane Wade And Gabrielle Union's Save-The-Date Is Just As Cute As They Are

Dwyane Wade And Gabrielle Union's Save-The-Date Is Just As Cute As They Are

Dwyane Wade popped the question to actress Gabrielle Union in December 2013 with the help of his two sons and his nephew. Now, thanks to TMZ Sports, we get to see some of the adorable proposal footage.

The NBA star's sons Zion and Zaire and nephew Dahveon held up signs which read, "Nickie, will you marry us?" (Nickie is Union’s nickname). Then, Wade got down on one knee and gave a big ol' diamond ring to a very giddy Union.

The couple is set to tie the knot in a social media-free wedding in Miami on August 30th.

Watch the video above to bask in all of their coupley cuteness.
