Right . I am an event planner and to stop ✍✍✍
I know I'm late to the party, but this is by far one of the best videos I have found so far. I am starting a new business and I'm trying to find all the information I can. This was so helpful and I will be checking out more of your videos.

Thanks so much Katie! I also have an online and in-person school. I offer free courses as well as a paid certification program. You can check it out here. luxeacademy.podia.com
Melanie, this is an excellent video for people who want to start a career/business in event planning. I love how you explained step by step the process that people need to know to get started. I've worked in the hospitality industry years ago and I know alot about what you're saying, having worked with event planners, caterers, florists, etc. This is great information for people who are searching to hire an event planner, as well. Take care 💞

Thanks so much love!
Hello there! You are so very appreciated for your content. I’ve been on the wall about doing this. I did my best friend’s wedding and I was disappointed because so many things went wrong last minute. It turned out nice and since I did it for free to build my inventory and experience, she was ever grateful and satisfied. I needed help more than I knew. Being a planner is about more then just having the materials. I’m more the wiser now, watching your videos. I’ve got a good base (blk/wht) collection to cover 150 people. That’s table covers, chair covers, bar stool covers, bar table covers n both colors. I also got 200 ea silver and gold chair sashes, table runners, cloth napkins, and plate chargers. Because I’m very crafty, I made very elegant centerpieces, wedding arch, aisle pedestals and flower wall. I also did all the flower deco. I sold the centerpieces and arch afterwards to the venue owner who was enamored by them. In total I made almost 50 beautiful items. I was just too lazy to bring them back home. I know better now tho. Now I’m on a mission to start my actual business. You are my first step in the right direction into this world. Thank you. In this video you mentioned a video that features 5 must have, gold centerpieces. I couldn’t find it. Could you please give me the link? Thank you again for what you do. You are AWESOME!!!
Wish I watched this before my first event. My client wanted silver and white. I went ahead and bought a lot of silver vases but most clients are requesting for gold. Good thing is I can spray them gold (I hope it works)
I am grateful, for all your tips, it helps me a lot, I want to become involve in my friends an family events I love decorating, the red you have on in the intro looks fabulous, I can imagine it's how Queen Ester Looked like
Thank you I really love decorating,my formal dining room is always table scaped ready,so I do decorating for my church special occasions, I have done a few weddings,but because they know me they do not want to pay, one of my church sister was getting married,had everything ready, and at the bridal shower 8 days, before the wedding, she told us the wedding was off, and she did not say us, keep doing what you do,I love watching you work your miracles ,stay blessed
Thank you so much I just got separated after 30 years I went to event planning school years ago and now I find myself setting up my first wedding in my new journey. Broke but free so I am getting all of this with notes
Melanie!! You are doing God's work!! I am soooo grateful that I came across your channel.

Thank you so much Melanie, this was very helpful and informative. I started off with basic linen but was hesitant about having furniture. Makes sense when you look at the cost for everything. God bless you for always keeping us up to date. 🙏💜

Excellent video! Every idea is well thought of and living proof of what you've been doing to make it a viable business. Thank you so much.
Great advice First Lady. I’m not into starting an event planning business but your tips are teaching me how to shop for event planners! Look for planners who have what I want, transporting equipment, space and pricing💕💕🥰
I don’t have an event planning business but my 40th birthday is coming up and I have a REALLY SMALL decor budget ($600) and this is helping me see what should be prioritizing.

My pleasure Alexandra! If you are interested in learning more about event planning and design- I have an online school that you can find here:luxeacademy.podia.com
So inspiring. I am currently renting tables, chairs, tents, linen, props, setting up dessert tables for all occasions, and more to afford a venue next year. I have been documenting it on my KZread channel. It's hard work, but I know it will pay off in the end.
Thank You❤ May God Continue To Bless You 😇
Hello, Beautiful! Great video! Thanks for sharing your expertise. Stay well! Cheers back to you ~ Leida

Hi Melanie, Thank you for sharing such an informative video. You touched on so many key points. Especially about those chairs. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. i went on Honey Book's website, watched the video and sent my email to get more information. You look so Beautiful. That Emerald is Popping. Keep doing what you do, i Love it and am Bless that I can access all the "Goodies" you provide.
Thanks so much
Hi Melanie, I'm so glad i watched this. I've been contemplating selling some of my stagnant inventory and my chairs. I'm paying an exorbitant amount of money for storage, transportation thereof and back which most of the time is over 200km in distance, maintenance etc and they're not paying for themselves. Great video, thank you so much.
Always feel blessed when I come across ur videos.God is using u greatly bless people like me.
