We Eloped!

It's true what they say: "Shoot ya shot." That's what Deann did when she messaged Sadé for the first time. After connecting on Facebook through a mutual friend, they not only both lived in Charlotte, but they happened to be only 10 minutes apart. As you can imagine, the first date turned into overnight stays. Before you knew it, they hadn't spent a night apart in weeks. Anyone who saw them immediately saw the love. The love that flowed so generously through their looks, actions, and their behavior. This love naturally led to an engagement in 2021. There was only a brief engagement period before they chose mortgage over marriage, which delayed a wedding ceremony. As the two have spent over 5 years as life partners, they wanted to take time to celebrate their own union in a destination elopement. They returned to their first vacation resort, Live Aqua, in Cancun.
