"We met online, on Tinder actually," Kelly and Adam tell us when talking about how they met. It was then at Melbourne's renowned Chin Chin restaurant where these two gents met in person for the very first time on their first date.

"I was instantly drawn towards Adam's eyes, and his beautiful lips," says Kelly, "and I just loved his smile and his bright blue eyes," Adam tells us of Kelly.

After they both agreed it was the 'Perfect Time' the pair became engaged and decided on September 17th, 2019 to be their wedding date.

Adam and Kelly built their elopement around three key themes, those being fun, spontaneity and of course, the Amalfi Coast, which is where the two sneaked off to for their wedding day.

"It was important for our wedding to be stress-free," Kelly and Adam tell Mr Theodore, "but, the hardest thing was keeping this all a secret from our friends and family."

After celebrating their marriage (with just the two of them), the newlyweds then honeymooned in Positano before returning home.
