Update:               

We have been saving money for a small family size wedding that we can afford...but due to bills it seems impossible. Every day I get more and more unexpected bills that move me back; I was unemployed and finally started working again and then someone crashed into my car and refuses to pay. I still owe money for that car and have to make monthly paymens yet can't use it because it is useless now. I had to buy an old car for now as I try to fight for compensation on my lost.

Recently I even started working two jobs to pay my daily bills and save for as much as I can for the wedding... but it is taking too long and I want to give her the princess wedding she deserves.

She wants the romantic princess luxury type of wedding, but we can't afford it on our own...so it would be amazing if we could actually have it through this KIIS-fm contest.

IL Cielo @ Beverly Hills would be so beautiful and romantic to cherish as our wedding memories...not only for us but for our loving family too. The great part is that it is here in LA county so all our family could attend. It would be an intimate wedding with our family and friends in a romantic magical atmosphere...Just like having our own secret love garden. I can only imagine how beautiful and perfect it will be for us to have this dream wedding.

I have hope that I can give this dream wedding to her...I can't wait to be able to call her my wife, my gorgeous wife.

We are Hispanic with very traditional family that still believes in old values. Therefore there is no way we could say we can move in together while we save; never less think of forming a family before a wedding. I want to be able to have a stable home and make my family and his happy because their happiness is also important.

We've known each other since ninth grade from our Army JROTC program. She was my assistant for two years yet she acted like my boss. We had little arguments here and there, yet every day we seemed to bond more and more. Finally one day I decided it was time to ask her out (we both were in our junior year. I went home that Friday and started planning how to tell her. I decided to make a little surprise. I went down to the local store and bought plates, glasses, candle holders, etc. for an intimate romantic dinner. I then asked our JROTC instructor for permission to use an available room to set my plan in motion, he agreed.

That next Monday I went in early to school and cleared the room as I set a table in the center. I fixed the table very nicely with the candles, rose petals, silverware, plates, and of course cider (remember both of us were minors). I dropped rose petals leading from the door entrance to the table and played a mix tape of love songs that I had put together for that day. I even personally cooked a full meal for both of us. Finally I asked a friend to make it discrete and with no clues for her to come into the room so I could surprise her. She was blind folded by my friend and as I opened the door she walked in and heard the music playing in the background. I then removed the cloth from her eyes and there I was standing with a big bouquet of red roses. She was so amazed and speechless. We sat in the table ate our meal, and finally I asked her to dance.

We dance for about 2 songs and I asked her,
"Do you know why I'm doing this" and she said "no?." I said,
"The reason I'm doing this is because I want to know if you want to be my girlfriend,"
she replied by saying
"You already know the answer"
"No I don't that is why I'm asking you" and it went so on for a while...then finally she said "YES"
I then asked her permission to kiss her.

That was the long beginning to our love journey that is still as fresh as that day.

Like we say

We are so excited about this contest, but are very impatient to get a call from KIIS-fm saying we are semi-finalists. It would be a step closer to a dream come true. Aurora & I cross our fingers that we make it. Everyone that knows us knows about the contest, and they all vow to support us :> They even send chain e-mails to let others know about us...it is so great to see their support. It is funny but as our friends find  out about the contest they tell us a little about what they think of us together. The sweetest thing was said to us by a friend, she described us as a "match made in heaven", it was so nice and perfect as I know we are perfectly made for each other.  Now we only need KIIS-fm to calll us, hopefully they did see how big our love for each other is.
