Hey there!
I’m Mel, director, and lead creative of ‘Melanie Jane Weddings and Events!’
My love of events started at a young age when I used to sit in my friend’s living room and flick through copious amounts of wedding magazines with her and dreaming up every single detail of how my wedding day would look, feel, and how I’d ride off into the sunset after eating glorious amounts of cake haha!
Now, after many years of working in the corporate scene in Marketing, Sales and working on creating fab events, I’ve turned my passion into a reality, I get to share my love of weddings and events with my wonderful clients and help them create something they will remember and cherish for a lifetime, as no event we host is ever dull, we know how to start a party!
Where can you find me when I’m not working on the business… in a little place I call heaven on earth ‘Noosa’, sipping on a cocktail or two with my toes in the sand as I watch my two boys and our dog ‘Ollie’ running around and playing, making sandcastles and Mr. MJWED right beside me in his favorite straw hat xx
A few fun facts about me:
I’m a HUGE lover of Espresso Martinis!
Every time I see a fluffy puppy I turn to mush!
My favourite kind of holiday is somewhere along the beach, with delicious food, a cocktail in hand and a straw hat, shall, bikini and sandals.
I love being a mum to my two boys and doing pancake Sundays with them and their daddy AKA Mr. MJWED.
My favourite foods are Italian, Mexican, Thai, and seafood! I also absolutely love spicy food although it doesn’t attend to agree with me too well.
My laugh makes everyone laugh, and my laugh makes me laugh, it’s somewhere between a walrus and a crow, my partner ‘Tom’ says I have 3 stages of hysterics, the last one he calls ‘my final form’. Very few people have witnessed me at this stage…
