So she gets her wedding paid by the radio station, right?
Happy happy happy girl, I guess.

One more thing so even us foreigners an fully enjoy the story: what does "blagged" mean??

Yup its all at the radio stations expense, or rather the hotel that is being promoted.

Blagged is when you use your art of persuasion to get something for free.
