Melanie
Thank you so much for considering Melanie Paige Events and Design in regard to your special day! My name is Melanie and I am the Owner of MPED, an Award Winning Wedding Planning Firm, as well as a Master Certified Wedding Planner through The Certified Wedding Planner Society. I am also the Northeast Florida Society Social Coordinator and 2021 Wedding Planner of the Year for The Certified Wedding Planner Society. With over 10 years of experience, I have done weddings all over the country and would love to be a part of your special day!
Some fun facts about me are: I love all things Target and may or may not have a shopping problem there. Married to the love of my life and have 4 fur children (2 dogs and 2 cats). I love all things Marvel and even included some Marvel hints on my wedding day. My favorite shows include Grey’s Anatomy, Friends, SATC, and all things Bravo. When I am not planning weddings, you can find me either shopping, watching one of my favorite shows or a Marvel movie/show, or hanging out with my hubby.
As your wedding planner, my goal is to bring all of your dream wedding ideas together and turn them into reality. Planning weddings is my passion and I would love to help you plan yours in a fun environment that is also stress-free. I can’t wait to chat and start bringing your event ideas to life!

Elizabeth
Associate Planner
Hi! My name is Elizabeth and I am an Associate Planner for Melanie Paige Events & Design and a Certified Planner through The Certified Wedding Planner Society. I graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Communication. Go Noles!
I’m a planner by nature and have always loved any excuse to plan an event or party. My love for wedding planning grew while planning my own wedding! The most fulfilling part of being wedding planner is bonding with our couples and bringing their visions to life on wedding day!
I’m Florida born and raised but my favorite place to be is the mountains, I LOVE cold weather. When I’m not planning you can find me spending time with family, going on outdoors adventures or having game nights!
I cannot wait to meet you and begin planning the wedding of your dreams!
Anna
Wedding Day Assistant
Hey there! My name is Anna and I am a day of assistant with MPED. I have a background in floral design, which is how I came to meet Melanie. I have a keen eye for detail and enjoy making every wedding beautiful from the tabletop to the party. I’m bringing the vibes and my leather pants. With my hands in pretty much every sector of the wedding industry, it has been so much fun working with Melanie and the rest of the team. There is no better group of girls to get it done and make your wedding dreams come true. In my spare time I love to play with flowers, spend time with friends, and binge watch Real Housewives. If your wedding expectations are as big as Teresa’s wedding hair, you’ve come to the right place. Can’t wait to meet you!

Hello Gorgeous! I am Priscilla Rose, Master Certified Planner through The Certified Wedding Planner Society and Associate Planner of Melanie Paige Events + Design. I am a city girl through and through and bring city chic with a pop of glam to every event! As a wedding planner, I believe every couple has a story to tell and I love creating moments in the planning process and wedding day that tell that story!
A few of my favorite things: I LOVE nights in, especially with one of my favorite shows! (Shout out to my Grey’s Anatomy fans)! I am never caught without a cup of coffee or my planner. When I am not planning, I travel and workout, a bit too much! Can’t wait to chat with you!
Devin
Wedding Day Assistant
Hi ya, I’m Devin – a wedding day assistant with MPED. Iced chai by day and Negroni Sbagliato with Prosecco in it by night, I’m all about getting it done and celebrating all the wins, big and small. I teach and practice yoga, am fascinated by true crime, and am a marketer by trade with a knack for event planning. As of late, I’ve found myself dabbling in floral design and wedding assisting, which has enhanced my appreciation for design, fine details, and finding the right mix of tradition and quirkiness to help make the big day truly memorable. If you’re looking for a team to help make your special day uniquely yours, you’ve come to the right place. Looking forward to working with you and yours! Let the countdown begin.
