A couple of weeks ago, we launched our 2nd annual Hot Couple Contest sponsored by Acqualina Resort & Spa in Miami Beach. This year, we left the contest open to both married and engaged couples. The entrants had to tell us a bit about themselves, and why they wanted to win the grand prize. Over a hundred fabulous couples competed in the first Round of the contest, where they had to get friends and family to vote for them in order for them to make the top 15 based on votes. On the 4th day of voting, 15 gorgeous couples made it to the final round and the contest got intense.
15 couples had the opportunity to have friends and family vote for them once a day on our facebook application, and a bonus vote was given for each LIKE they got on a photo gallery we created with all the finalists. In the end, only the couple with the most likes and votes combined would win. It was a pretty tough contest all the way to the end, with every couple inching their way into first place. We truly wish there could be more winners but only one couple gets the prize. So who won?
Congrats to Ceanitria Bynum-Simmons and Willis Simmons! With 722 likes on the photo gallery pic and 1616 votes for a total score of 2338, they are the 2014 Munaluchi Hot Couple of the Year and have won a 3 night/4 day luxury stay at Acqualina Resort & Spa.
Wedding Date: 2013-05-07
Willis & I were high school sweethearts. We climbed steep mountains along the way, ultimately deciding to spend a “couple of forevers” together.”I can’t leave him alone” fits our world perfectly! Our wedding was amazing, it was pure elegance at James E Bruce Con.Center. I did the wedding planning from Afghanistan with the help of my mom & sister on the home front. I’d like to win this trip because we honestly deserve it! We have spent most of our marriage apart due to working overseas. What an awesome WELCOME HOME treat for my husband this would be!
From Ceanitria:
“true love doesn’t mean being inseparable, it means being separated and nothing changes” I love my husband with every piece of me and we truly deserve this getaway. My family, my friends , and friends of friends all joined together to make sure #teamSIMMONS came out on top. I LOVE MY TEAM! From Day 1 Round 1 I started them off with “LET’S GO GETTEM” mission accomplished, we got them! “We are the perfect couple we are just not in the perfect situation” Blessings to all the married and engaged couples that were in the contest especially Tiffany and Phillip they made it extremely intense!
Thanks again to all of the couples that entered and cheers to maintaining your beautiful and inspiring relationships. Join us in congratulating the winning couple in the comments.
I am so happy for them. What a beautiful couple!
What an amazing couple. Congrats to the winner and Munaluchi for having the foresight to have such a heartfelt contest!
