The Houston-area couple, Greenjeans and Biv, say they bonded over a shared love of rainbows, and the rest is colorful history.
HOUSTON — Variety magazine is searching for America’s Favorite Couple and a pair of Houstonians have made it to the quarterfinals.
Greenjeans and Biv met online a couple of years ago and have been together ever since.
Biv said they were drawn together by their love of rainbows and whimsy.
“Somehow, through all the noise, we recognized each other’s magic. I’m usually too shy to swipe right first, but something about him felt different,” Biv posted. “I took a chance, swiped right, and he messaged me.”
Their first trip together to the Renaissance Festival, north of Houston, sealed the deal. They camped out the night before, sleeping in his van.
“He borrowed costuming from me and we matched and everyone loved it!” Biv shared. “Watching him light up as he discovered the whimsy and magic of faire for the first time (while we shared a giant turkey leg, of course) is something I will never forget.”
The winning couple gets $20,000 and will be featured in a Variety article.
Biv said the money would be “life-changing for them.” They would use it to buy Greenjean a more reliable vehicle since they live far apart and only get to see each other on weekends.
“We would use whatever is left to start our happily ever after,” she said.
