Similar to her daughter's unusual name, Madison's engagement ring features unique gemstones and adornments- all hand-selected by her fiancé.
"My fiancé designed it himself because I told him that's what would make it most special," said the bride-to-be while speaking to Celebuzz.
The ring consists of a large yellow diamond surrounded by flowers formed from purple, yellow and light green gemstones on a rose-gold band.
"The band is Art Noveau inspired to go with flowers," Madison continued, according to Celebuzz. "Because we love owls, there is a hidden owl engraved on the rose gold in between two of the flowers."
As for the proposal, the 33-year-old said that the evening was shared with friends and was perfect.
"I was so happy that so many of our close friends were there to share the wonderful moment with us," Madison posted to her blog. "We rose around the festival on the art car until the sun came up! I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful or magical proposal."
Madison previously announced that she plans to marry the Las Vegas promoter on Aug. 14. The former "Girls Next Door" television star revealed the wedding date while on the documentary special "Holly Has a Baby" on E!.
The model is the former girlfriend of Hugh Hefner. They were together for seven years before their split in 2008.
Formerly a Playboy model, Madison said she was "never dating anybody again" after the breakup, but changed her tune after meeting Rotella.
"Definitely being with the right guy has a lot to do with it," she told People magazine last year. "My relationship is awesome. I'm happier than I've ever been in my personal life."
Then, after dating since 2011, Madison and Pasquale welcomed daughter Rainbow on March 5 this year.
The model also previously explained the unusual name she and Rotella chose for their firstborn child.
"Growing up, there was a girl in my school named Rainbow and I was so envious of that name," Madison said, according to In Touch magazine. "I thought it was so pretty and unique!"
