Idol's Danny Gokey is engaged
This is the second marriage for Gokey, 31, who famously lost his wife, Sophia, a month before his Season 8 Idol audition in 2008 after heart surgery. He later established a children's foundation, Sophia's Heart, in her name. Gokey, who finished third on Idol, and Peralta, 25, asked their guests that all gifts be in the form of a donation to Sophia's Heart.
The pair got engaged last month.
