So what’s next? A reality wedding.  The couple who won the bid for Channel Five’s new show: from Yes to I do, Channel Five Will Follow You – was announced at the KTV Latino grand finale last night. Forty couples entered the competition, five were short listed but it was Julio Escalante and Vanessa Ramos, who were picked as the deserving couple to win the wedding to be premiered by this station. Accompanied by their baby girl, the young couple made their first appearance as the winning duo. We will follow Julio and Vanessa from now until they walk down to the isle to fortify their life-long commitment to each other in sacred matrimony.  They explained how it all unfolded for them.
