Melissa Dawn Event Designs

We absolutely loved working with Melissa and her team and would recommend her to anyone! Choosing Melissa was one of the best decisions in our planning process! I was a super nervous bride and Melissa and her team were so understanding and easy to work with - they always helped calm my nerves. I changed my mind constantly and they were very flexible and patient and willing to pivot - I really appreciated them being so accommodating to ensure my vision came to life! We received so many compliments from our wedding guests on how much they loved the decor! I loved how Melissa and her team didn’t just regurgitate Pinterest - they took my ideas and vision and made it unique, perfectly capturing my fairytale wedding & creating a whimsical and romantic evening. We also really appreciated their organization and quick responses to emails. This made the planning much easier and also kept us on track on the day, which went by smoothly, on-time and without any bumps. She created an in depth timeline and was a point of contact for all our vendors. She was so professional and a wonderful person to work with. I am so glad we trusted her to plan our wedding!

Melissa and her team did the design for a wedding I photographed recently (I’m a wedding photographer), and wow her work is beautiful! Not only were all her designs stunning though, she coordinated with me and the rest of the team flawlessly, was a lot of fun to work with, and the couple had amazing things to say about her. If you are getting married and need a planner, I cannot recommend Melissa enough.

Melissa and her team truly gave us the wedding of our dreams! They were so amazing to work with through the entire process. Her entire design blew us away and was even prettier than I could have imagined. The perfect wedding from start to finish!

Melissa and her team were absolutely incredible to work with! From the very beginning, they brought kindness, creativity, and an amazing attention to detail to every part of our wedding planning process. What felt daunting at first quickly became fun and exciting, thanks to their calm guidance and expert coordination. Every single recommendation Melissa made—from vendors to décor—was spot-on. The overall appearance and aesthetic of our wedding day was even more beautiful than I had imagined. I was able to fully enjoy every moment of the day because I knew Melissa and her team were behind the scenes making everything run smoothly. If you’re planning a wedding or any large event, I cannot recommend Melissa enough. She’s not only an exceptional planner, but also someone you genuinely enjoy working with. She made our day unforgettable, and we are so grateful!

We hired Melissa for our wedding in August 2024. Planning a wedding is stressful, but knowing that you have someone who is so experienced, and is there to ensure your exact vision is put to life, makes it less stressful! Melissa and her team were professional, understanding, caring and exactly who you want on your wedding day (and leading up to it) to ensure everything runs smoothly. She responded to all my questions I pestered her with, very promptly (and there were lots!). She ensured I was comfortable each step along the way and made sure our every wish became reality. Our wedding was so beautiful, it was beyond what we imagined. No detail was missed, she ensured we stayed on time, and communicated with us each step of the way. I also loved the checklist she provides of things that we needed to complete behind the scenes (i.e. when to make sure my dress alterations were complete). Melissa communicated with every vendor making sure everyone was on the same page, and so that we did not have to worry about a thing! My husband and I were able to relax, and enjoy our day knowing that each and every detail was expertly cared for.
