Fernando and I aren’t just love—we’re timing, growth, laughter, and loyalty. Against all odds, we chose each other, every single day.
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
Fernando and I first knew each other in high school, but we were with other people then. Life took us separate ways until we reconnected on Facebook years later. What started as catching up quickly turned into something real and undeniable. From that moment on, we’ve been inseparable. Our story proves that timing is everything—and what’s meant for you will always find its way back.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our best memory as a couple is our wedding day—the moment everything came full circle. From knowing each other in high school to finding our way back, that day was the start of forever. Surrounded by love, laughter, and promises, it wasn’t just a celebration—it was the beginning of the life we always dreamed of together.
What would you do with $20,000?If we win the $20,000, we’d invest in our future—building a stable home for our family, creating unforgettable memories with our kids, and growing together. It wouldn’t just be money, it would be a chance to strengthen our foundation and continue writing our love story with even more purpose, joy, and opportunity.
