Danny Gokey’s Super-Romantic Wedding–You’re Invited!

Valentine's Day is right around the corner. Feeling a little not in the mood for the traditional lovey-dovey holiday? Well, here's something sure to make you feel all hearts-and-flowers inside. American Idol's Danny Gokey has released a video detailing his super-romantic wedding to Leyicet Perlata, which took place January 29 in Florida.The newlyweds!

It's all here for fans to enjoy--glimpses of the traditional church ceremony, the rings, the bride going down the aisle. And the reception is covered too! Flowers, dancing, and the "chocolaty heaven" cake Gokey referenced to People shortly after the wedding took place.

Perhaps sweetest of all is Gokey's inclusion of a tender message spoken directly to his bride, in which he muses "I wonder how many kids we'll have?" Awww, too cute. Watch for yourselves!

The newlyweds have dedicated themselves to working on Gokey's children's charity Sophia's Heart, which he founded in honor of his late first wife. In fact, the couple asked for donations to the foundation in lieu of traditional wedding gifts on their big day.

So, are you feeling a bit more in the Valentine's Day spirit now? Be sure to let me know!
