About Us

Hi. We’re Juan & Arienne Martinez. Here's the short version...

We have always talked about wanting a big family; unfortunately, that didn’t come easy. After 15 years together, 7 years of fertility treatments, a precancerous diagnosis and many unlucky medical complications; we were told surrogacy or adoption were our only options.

Fast forward to Spring 2023 when we were shocking told we could be cleared to try IVF again after a year of clean biopsies! After one failed transfer, the second one stuck! Our miracle baby girl will be here in April 2025.

Ivory Flamingo started out of necessity to raise money for surrogacy, but we’ve quickly turned our pain into passion! We create custom appeal that spread messages of hope, faith, self-love, and miracles! We advocate for those struggling with infertility while also celebrating those that finally made it to motherhood!

We can't wait to introduce you to Baby Martinez, someday soon! 

“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for harm, to give you hope and a future.”

Jeremiah 29:11
