I always assumed that a lot of contests, sweepstakes and lotteries were shams and never actually awarded a prize to anyone. Maybe it's because I'm cynical or maybe it's because I've never actually known anyone who won, but I just thought some of this stuff really is just "too good to be true."
Well, now I'm a believer. KIIS FM (the obnoxious pop radio station in LA with Ryan Seacrest) had this Perfect Wedding contest. Tons of couples entered in order to win an all-expenses paid wedding and the audience was supposed to vote for their favorite couple.
Today, my friends found out they won! Crews showed up at their apartment this morning to surprise them and then had a limo take them to a champagne brunch at the venue to start wedding planning. I got a call inviting me to join, but I was already on my way in a carpool to school, so I had to decline. :( Their wedding is now in 5 weeks, so they have a ton of work to do, but I think they're really excited for it.
I think I might have died if I couldn't plan my own wedding exactly the way I wanted it, but it's pretty cool that they'll have this story to tell about theirs.
They're a very sweet couple and definitely a great pick for this contest.
