​Melanie Joy Events specializes in celebrations that tell stories—your story. A story that is wholly yours and is told throughout the planning process and comes together in an event that is uniquely you. I strive to ensure you are confident in each step, complete with the knowledge that I will step up to resolve any issues during the planning phase as well as represent you during your jubilant celebration. Graciousness under stress is what I desire to give to each and every one of my clients.

I can’t wait to meet you and learn all about your story!

Who Is Melanie





Mainland Bluffton, SC and Hilton Head Island, SC is where I currently call home. A graduate of the Wharton Business School, passionate about people, events, and smiles. On any given day you’ll find me out running, sipping on a rich cup of coffee with friends, reminiscing about my time abroad in Australia and Europe, or dreaming about where my travels will take me next. I love Jesus with all my heart and am passionate about my faith, living a life of love and adventure, and helping people tell their unique stories.

My Story




​
A love for parties, bringing people together, and the joy in others' smiles brought me into the world of event planning.  I planned my first event at sixteen and fell in love with the planning and execution of special events. Throughout college I found myself working as a freelance wedding planner, a corporate event planner, productions assistant, and a bridal consultant intern. My background in events is diverse with experience from bridal to non-profit to corporate. I currently am working on learning even more about the different types of events by working as a Program Manager at  a local Destination Management Company. In the last year I have managed over 235 programs and events and loved every moment of it!

My Mission




​
​
To show Christ's love through planning and serving so that all your heart's desires will be full.
"May he grant your heart’s desires and make all your plans succeed." Psalm 20:4
