Thomas Rhett and Lauren Akins are one of the cutest celebrity couples out there, and the duo cemented their adorable status on Saturday night, when they rang in the new year during Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve in New York City.
After Rhett performed on the show, the couple joined their fellow revelers in counting down the moments until midnight, ringing in the new year with a sweet kiss that they both shared to their social media accounts.
Akins shared a photo of the midnight moment, posting the snap to Instagram with the simple caption "Hello 2017."
Although Rhett performed early in the evening, the couple joined host Ryan Seacrest, Gloria Estefan, Mariah Carey and DNCE on the elevated platform to watch the ball drop, with Rhett sharing a video of the celebration, revealing that his countdown to midnight got a little askew. Luckily, he got back on track before sharing a kiss with his wife.
"Look at this magic," he added while panning the camera around Times Square.
We're thinking 2017 will be a great year for these two!
