A Connection that Never Drops a Call: Online Dating Success Story
Casharee & Kelley Saunders Love Experience
Not every love story starts with a grand gesture—sometimes, it begins with a swipe. For this couple, what started as a connection on Hinge turned into a journey filled with deep conversations, A+ chemistry, and heartfelt gestures. Fast forward to May 2024, their wedding at the Omni Hotel Downtown became a stunning celebration of love, family, and joy. From a heartfelt proposal to an elegant ceremony, their big day proved that love can thrive anywhere—even online.
How It All Began
Their story started where modern romance often does: online. A swipe on Hinge turned into deep conversations and an instant connection that felt like fate. Kelley and Casharee discovered a love that flowed seamlessly, proving that sometimes, physical attraction is just the beginning of something much deeper.
Kelley sealed their love story with a proposal Casharee would never forget. With the help of her sisters and a cleverly disguised “birthday party,” Kelley planned a surprise rooftop proposal. As Casharee walked into the venue, she was greeted by her loved ones, and Kelley was waiting for her on bended knee. The night turned into a dual celebration of their engagement and a beautifully curated moment shared with family and friends.
The Wedding Day: Luxe Elegance at the Omni
When Casharee and Kelley envisioned their wedding day, they dreamed of an elegant, luxe atmosphere, and the Omni Hotel Downtown delivered on every level. The couple’s big day was filled with meaningful moments, from their daughter walking down the aisle with Kelley to their heartfelt exchange of vows. Every moment reflected the deep bond they share.
One special touch that made the day uniquely theirs was a tribute to their loved ones who had passed. A memorial table with cherished photos ensured that family members who couldn’t be there physically were honored in spirit—a detail that added emotional depth to an already meaningful day.
A First Look of Joy and Love
The first look was a moment brimming with joy and emotion. Kelley was overwhelmed with happiness, while Casharee was reminded of the deep love that had brought them to this moment. These raw, beautiful emotions set the tone for the rest of the day, making every captured moment truly magical.
A Celebration to Remember
The reception was a vibe in every sense of the word. Their first dance, heartfelt speeches from the bridal party, and an unexpected yet delightful cultural moment made the evening unforgettable. When money was thrown at the couple—a gesture rooted in African tradition—it added an exciting, spontaneous element to the celebration.
Capturing the Magic: A Love Experience Through Our Eyes
Working with A Love Experience to capture our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. They didn’t just document our day—they told our story. From the grandeur of the Omni Hotel to the intimate moments that meant so much to us, they made sure every detail was captured beautifully. One of our favorite touches was the shot of the Ferris wheel in the background during our vows. It was such a special callback to our first date at the Ferris wheel, and it felt like our love story had come full circle. Thanks to A Love Experience, we now have timeless memories to relive forever.
