Getting to know Melissa

*ABOUT ME* Greetings, I'm Melissa, and I'm thrilled to introduce you to my company, born from a deep-seated passion. What began as a simple weekend endeavor assisting friends and families with party planning has evolved into a fulfilling career fueled by creativity and love. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine such a journey was possible. Events by Missy & Company is my full-service wedding planning company and we provide an unparalleled experience to every client. For over 15 years I've worked with couples to help them experience the happiness they deserve while planning their weddings all while remaining stress free!

*OUR PHILOSOPHY* When you collaborate with Events by Missy & Company; you gain access to a wealth of experience, expertise & education that is dedicated to crafting not only the seamless logistics of a successful event but also the exquisite aesthetics and distinctive design of a truly unique and unforgettable wedding.

*THE JOURNEY* At Events by Missy & Company, we believe in simplifying the destination to your perfect day.

*CHOOSE US* What brings me joy on your wedding day is watching your gorgeous faces from the back of the aisle, knowing that your wedding is unfolding exactly as we planned it. You are excited and focused on each other,  just as it should be.  Your happiness is my happiness, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Whether you're just beginning to envision your wedding or seeking assistance with the final touches, I invite you to reach out and schedule a consultation. Together, we'll embark on an unforgettable journey to create a celebration that is uniquely yours.

*A PERSONAL NOTE* I believe getting to know each other is a critical part in working together; that “warm & fuzzy” feeling makes sharing personal details and stories easier and it helps me craft your story and wedding day from a place of love. Here are some fun facts about me: I am a wife of almost 20 years, a mom to the most amazing children and a “mimi”…family is THE most important thing in the world. My husband and I live in our home in Connecticut with our cats Poly & Tripp (rescues). Drinking cocktails & eating delicious food (in that order) are my favorite activities and I will never turn down a stiff drink or yummy nosh. I LOVE to travel; having seen most of the US and Europe and the Caribbean and I’m looking forward to visiting Greece in 2024, Portugal in 2025 and Japan in 2026. On that note, I truly hope we get to work together to create everything you and your partner want for your wedding, so your first day together as a married couple is the best it can be.

With gratitude - Melissa
