While Lee admits that he and Chan were running "late" throughout the day, his proposal plans otherwise ran like clockwork.

"We were late but everything did go as planned," he tells PEOPLE of his special surprise getaway to Paris' Cheval Blanc hotel, which isn't yet open to the public.

Lee then popped the question at the Jacquemart-André Museum, which he arranged to have closed to the public for the occasion, and then asked Chan to marry him in front of a special painting he commissioned of himself and Chan along with the words "Will You Marry Me?" "I've wanted to propose to Chérie on multiple occasions, first time was in Maldives, but Chérie was extremely pregnant and I wanted to do nothing but take care of her," he tells PEOPLE.

"The second time I had planned a family trip to propose to Chérie under the cherry blossoms in Tokyo but her mom was really ill, so I postponed the whole engagement," he explains. "Although Chérie had proposed to me, I'm glad I got to propose to her now. It's something I've always wanted to do but the timing wasn't right."
