Lily Collins and Charlie McDowell are one loved-up pair!

After first meeting on the set of Gilded Rage in 2019, Collins said she knew she was in it for the long haul.

"It was one of those situations where I knew the second I met him that I wanted to be his wife one day. So, it was just a matter of when, really," the Emily in Paris actress said on Live with Kelly and Ryan. Sure enough, by September 2020 the pair was engaged and a year later they tied the knot.

From sweet birthday wishes to Valentine's Day kisses, here are some of the couple's most adorable photos together.
