Perfection isn’t our goal, growth is. We don’t hide from our flaws; we face them, grow through them, and love every version of each other.
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!
We crushed on each other as teenagers, trading DMs & stolen glances, but neither of us was brave enough to make a move. Life took us in different directions, and we lost touch for years until New Year’s Eve 2018, when perfect timing brought us back together. One hug, and the butterflies returned before the countdown even began. The next morning he DM’d me, and I replied instantly because I was already admiring his page. We had our first date, and we’ve been inseparable and in love ever since.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memory is getting married on 12/9/2023. He proposed in front of our two children, it was the most romantic proposal ever! A month later, we stood in a courthouse surrounded by our immediate family as we became one. We chose to invest in our marriage before our wedding because our commitment to each other mattered most. Every vow was heartfelt, every tear was joyful, and every moment was real. It was filled with love, authenticity, and a promise to choose each other forever.
What would you do with $20,000?If we won $20,000, we’d invest half into our future. As entrepreneurs, we love serving others and have no desire to stop helping, building, and teaching our clients. But creating our own retirement and long-term security is a responsibility we take seriously. The other half would help us celebrate the wedding we’ve been dreaming of after choosing to prioritize our marriage first. This prize wouldn’t just fund a day, it would help build our happily ever after, and we would be incredibly grateful.
