Radio host Billy the Kidd of New Mix 102.9 offered a pair of tickets for Bruno Mars' Romantic Tour on April 18 in Arlington, Texas — and added an unexpected twist: the winning couple could be married at the sold-out show. Hundreds entered, and one applicant stood out.
Kim Grimaldo was chosen as the 'Bruno Bride' but hadn’t told her boyfriend, Javier, that she’d entered. On April 16 she phoned him live on the Billy the Kidd morning show to ask if he’d marry her — he said yes, surprised but enthusiastic, and they prepared to wed two days later.
