Love has a way of finding us when we least expect it, weaving its magic through the most ordinary moments and turning them into something extraordinary.

This is precisely what happened with Daniel and Elly, whose journey from a simple swipe on Tinder to a heartwarming wedding day was nothing short of enchanting.


Elly was in a tough spot, disheartened by the online dating scene and almost ready to give up. Living with her best friend Ben, she spent her days scrolling through Tinder out of sheer boredom. Daniel, on the other hand, was enjoying his life in a studio apartment in Spring Hill, working at Transmax, and spending weekends playing Dungeons & Dragons or visiting his brother in Sydney. Their worlds collided when Daniel’s “super like” on Tinder caught Elly’s attention.


After six weeks of endless, engaging conversations, Daniel and Elly finally met on November 13, 2018. Their first meeting, decided by a coin flip app, took place at Elly and Ben’s home. Ben, an integral part of their story, immediately warmed up to Daniel, (even sharing his favorite drink with him!). The night was filled with laughter, card games, and a bold kiss that marked the beginning of their beautiful relationship.


They spent more time together, and by November 22, Daniel officially asked Elly to be his girlfriend. Their love story was not without its challenges, but Daniel’s unwavering support and acceptance helped Elly navigate through tough times. They became inseparable, sharing dreams, hopes, and endless conversations.


It was January 4, 2022, on their apartment’s rooftop, where Daniel orchestrated a memorable proposal with the help of his siblings. As the sun set, he went down on one knee and proposed with a unique ring inscribed with “Loading” – a placeholder for a ring Elly would design herself. Her teary-eyed “yes” marked the beginning of their forever.
