A concertgoer tells People.com, "She (Drea) was dancing on the side of the stage holding (the couple's 18-month-old daughter) Alabama when he called her onstage.
"She was so surprised by the proposal."
The couple has been dating since 2001.
Jennings confirmed the news on his Twitter page blog after the gig, writing, "Asked drea to marry me on stage tonight. I'm a lucky man."
