Dugan and Huffman

Survivor: China's Jaime Dugan and Erik Huffman may not have won the prize money when they were voted off the island last year, but the couple won the ultimate prize: love.

Dugan, 23, and Huffman, 27, who got engaged a couple of months ago in Charleston, S.C., are revealing the details of his proposal – which took place during a fake photo shoot elaborately planned by Huffman – and their romance.

"When I turned around and saw him on his knee, I thought he was doing a really weird pose," Dugan tells PEOPLE exclusively. "Slowly it started to sink in. I was thrilled."

The couple met on Survivor: China in 2007 and learned that they'd grown up just 25 miles apart in South Carolina and had even attended some of the same concerts. When they returned home after being voted off the show, Huffman called her the next day and invited her to dinner. "Life has been a whirlwind ever since," he says.

Since then, the couple moved to Nashville, where Huffman is a musician in his band Florez. Dugan works for Mercy Ministries, a faith-based nonprofit group that helps young women with addictions.

Finding it difficult to plan a long-distance wedding, the couple decided to enter a wedding contest in Charleston, S.C., and submitted a video to "help make our wedding dreams come true," Huffman says in the clip. Last week, they learned they were one of four finalists.

Still surprised that she met her husband-to-be on the other side of the world, Dugan says, "It was worth eating snails and worms."

Jaime Dugan and fiancé Erik Huffman may have lost out as competitors on Survivor: China but the newly-engaged couple just won an opportunity of a lifetime: a dream wedding.

The pair, who grew up just 25 miles apart, won an $80,000 wedding courtesy of the Charleston Area Convention and Visitors Bureau in Charleston, S.C., not far from their hometowns in upstate South Carolina.

"The cast is on the guest list because they were there every step of the way," Dugan tells PEOPLE. "[Winner] Todd Herzog has already called us. He's stoked and he's coming. Peih-Gee [Law], Sherea [Lloyd] and Frosti [Zernow], they've already booked flights. I think we're going to have Leslie [Nease] read at the ceremony."

Dugan says the wedding is scheduled for April 4, 2009, and she's meeting her wedding planner next week to start creating a 200-person guest list. And as for the groom-to-be? Well, he's in charge of the honeymoon.

"He's been going through my bridal magazines and clipping out places he likes. He's having fun with it," she says.

And her wedding party will also include some familiar faces. Her bridesmaids will include reality star competitors Brooke Jackson and Marisa Axelrod from this season of The Amazing Race.

"It will be a reality [show] get-together, but they're all my close friends," she says.

I voted for them!
So happy for them and glad I bumped into this.
It was such a pain, you had to give them all the info each voting day....
Bad design or what not.

But, just curious:
Is there a place all the old posts went sleeping??
I'm looking for old caps.

"The cast is on the guest list because they were there every step of the way," Dugan told PEOPLE in an earlier interview. "[Winner] Todd Herzog has already called us. He's stoked and he's coming. Peih-Gee, Sherea and Frosti, they've already booked flights. I think we're going to have Leslie read at the ceremony."
Dugan and Huffman won an $80,000 dream wedding from the Charleston Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. The ceremony, inspired by the country where they met, had an Asian and tropical theme.
"[Jaime] took your breath away, she was so beautiful," one wedding guest shared. "There was an ocean breeze over the wedding. It was a very romantic wedding."
