Elle, who was described by her family as "the glue that held this big family together" and "the most beautiful and bright star", was enjoying a night out with friends when she was killed.
Her family said: "There was no one as beautiful as our Elle May, her looks, her laugh and the way she would light up a room as soon as she walked in. She had this way about her that as soon as you met her you just instantly fell in love with her, everyone that met Elle knew how special she was.
"Her laugh was infectious anyone who was around her had a good time, she loved her life and had so many amazing plans for the future. She was only just getting started. Christmas and our family will never be the same again without her."
Connor Chapman, 22, of Houghton Road in Woodchurch, was charged with her murder on January 13. He was also charged with the attempted murder of Kieran Salkeld and Jake Duffy, and inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent on three men, Harry Loughran, Nicholas Speed and Liam Carr.
