15yrs, 7 long distance. HS love, cross-country moves, still crushing on each other. BFFs in love ❤️
We would like to thank you for supporting Zoe & Mitchell (Long Distance Duo) 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 is grounded in the friendship we forged at Valley High. Our banter was playful and our energy was magnetic. That friendship blossomed into an innocent love: both steady and electric. When life gave us collegiate opportunities on opposite coasts, it didn’t end our story. Rather, it gave us the gift of multiple beginnings. With each chapter, we encouraged each other to chase bold goals, always holding onto the unwavering belief that we’d find our way back to the same place: together.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our wedding, not just because it was our wedding, but because it marked the end of seven years of long distance. We brought together friends and family from Las Vegas, LA, Boston, Philly, and Portland—each a chapter of our journey. Our community carried us through the years apart, so having them with us, in the same place we had our first date, on our 11-year anniversary, made the day feel like the most meaningful full-circle moment of our lives.
What would you do with $20,000?If selected, we’d commit the prize to the next chapter in our love story, growing our family. We’re exploring several paths to parenthood, each meaningful and full of hope, but not without emotional and financial hurdles. This gift would help ease that journey, allowing us to focus on building a joyful, loving home. After years of investing in our relationship, we’re ready to share that same love into raising a family together.
