Inside Kelly Dodd's Star-Studded Engagement Party
Kelly Dodd can't contain her excitement following her whirlwind engagement to her husband-to-be Rick Leventhal. The Real Housewives of Orange County star celebrated the milestone with costars, friends and family in New York City on Thursday, November 14, before heading to BravoCon.
Kelly, 44, and her RHOC castmates were already in town this week to attend BravoCon on November 15 through November 17. So what better place for Bravo star and her pals to celebrate her engagement in the Big Apple?
Costars Emily Simpson, Braunwyn Wyndham-Burke and Real Housewives of Dallas star LeeAnne Locken were among the guests who attended the big night.
Kelly and Rick, 59, commemorated their big news at Bravo's Guess Who, B***h?! Game Night at Moxy Chelsea Hotel. Kelly sported a strapless emerald green satin jumpsuit and her massive pear-shaped diamond ring for the bash while Rick wore a slate blue suit and pink satin tie. The venue was decorated with silver letter balloons that spelled out, "Congrats Kelly!"
The mother of one shared a slew of photosfrom the fun night on social media. "With my girls and fiancé that are ride or die!! #bravocon #teamrightcouch @braunwynwindhamburke @not_topanga @rickleventhal @rhoc_emilysimpson @leeannelocken #rhoc #rhod,"she captioned them. Kelly showed off her new bling while mingling at the event.

Emily, 43, posted several more pics from the bash and gushed over her friend's joyous news. 'First night of @bravocon2019 was a BLAST celebrating @kellyddodd‘s engagement! Congrats to the beautiful couple! ❤️?????," the mother of three wrote alongside the post.
Emily and Braunwyn both gave heartfelt toasts at the party and they both almost had the happy couple in happy tears! Emily made the trip cross country from the OC to NYC despite her recovery from her recent hip replacement surgery. The lawyer underwent her procedure in late October.
The Fox News correspondent popped the question on a rooftop in NYC on November 13. Kelly posted a cute snap of her and Rick cuddling up and wrote, "I can’t believe I just got engaged !! @rickleventhal you are my Prince and my dream come true!!! #love #engaged #myprince."
Kelly opened up about her special proposal at the event. She told Us Weekly, "I’m feeling great! I’m excited! He has a terrace that looks over the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building. Beautiful, with a fire and a bunch of flowers. And he got on one knee and said, ‘You’re the love of my life.’”
