What makes my husband & I a great couple is that we loved each other through thick and thin, we build each other up and love unconditionally
We would like to thank you for supporting Vanesa & Felix Martinez in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
Our love story began in 2008 as high school crushes. We connected briefly on MySpace but lost touch. In 2013, I found Felix on Facebook and messaged him—he replied, “How could I forget that beautiful smile?” We reconnected as friends, and on Valentine’s Day 2014, he asked me to be his girlfriend. Now, 11 years later, two years married, we’re excited to welcome our first baby this November. A love that was meant to be.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memory as a couple is traveling the world together and growing as best friends. Now, our greatest adventure yet—becoming first-time parents—is just around the corner, and we couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter.
What would you do with $20,000?We’d use the $20,000 as a down payment on our dream home. After everything we’ve been through, we’ve always had each other’s back. We’ve dreamed of a beautiful home with a yard and driveway—a place to raise our little one and grow old together in comfort and love.
