Why Nina Dobrev and Shaun White Are Taking Their Time with Wedding Plans!

Nina Dobrev is enjoying her fiancée era. 

Approaching half a year since Vampire Diaries alum and Olympic skier Shaun White got engaged, they mentioned that their hectic work commitments have hindered their ability to arrange their wedding.

Nina shared an exclusive story with Francesca Amiker from TopMob News. She said, “I was in Australia making a film, followed by Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. Currently, we’re in the phase of being engaged, which is quite special because it’s not a long-lasting stage. You spend half your life with a boyfriend and the other half with a husband, but being an ‘engaged’ couple is relatively brief.

As she put it, “I really want to enjoy it and not rush that process.”

The 36-year-old, who began dating Shaun in 2019, acknowledged that there are indeed many enjoyable aspects of being engaged.

She excitedly shared, “It’s such a joy to say ‘fiancé’,” and when it comes to planning, her top priority is clear: “My main aim is to figure out the best ways to minimize its environmental impact.

Beyond just being mindful during her engagement period, Nina has been actively working towards minimizing her environmental impact. The actress from “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” who is collaborating with SC Johnson for World Recycling Day on May 23, underlines that each of her choices, particularly in wedding planning and beyond, can significantly contribute to preserving the environment.

“Absolutely every single person counts and matters,” Nina argued. “It makes a big difference.”

Undoubtedly, I, a dedicated admirer, can’t help but express my eagerness to ensure that the union of her and Shaun is not just a beautiful event, but also an environmentally friendly one. I yearn for their special day to be a shining example of sustainability.

She openly acknowledged that she wasn’t the kind of woman who fantasized about the perfect wedding. Instead, she realized she needed to conduct extensive research and identify where there might be room for enhancement.

Regardless of when their wedding takes place, you can count on Nina and Shaun to ensure it’s eco-friendly. For now, continue reading to revisit their love story…

Dobrev and White became friends following a party they attended together with companions, including her fellow Vampire Diaries cast members Kayla Ewell and Candice Accola King, at the inauguration of The Mayfair supper club in Las Vegas’ Bellagio Resort & Casino on New Year’s Eve.

A year later, during the coronavirus pandemic, Dobrev would post this picture from their party, along with a video of him lifting her up like in Dirty Dancing, only for them to tumble into the snow together. She captioned it, “What we thought 2020 would be like…what it actually turned out to be.

On your birthday, I express that life with you has been the most thrilling journey! Here’s wishing you a joyful day, my dear one!
