Memorable Events By Mel

Hi, I’m Melanie, owner of Memorable Events by Mel. I bring over 15 years of experience in the hospitality industry to every event I work on. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Hospitality Management from Johnson & Wales University, and my career has been built around service excellence, organization, and creating thoughtful, well executed guest experiences. My background includes nine years working high end weddings and private events at a luxury resort in San Diego, where attention to detail and guest experience were always the priority. After moving back home, I transitioned into Food and Beverage Management at a hotel and later into General Management within fine dining restaurants. While those roles strengthened my leadership, operational, and service management skills, my passion was always in the event space. That passion is what ultimately led me to create Memorable Events by Mel. Today, I bring that same level of professionalism, structure, and care to events throughout Northeast Pennsylvania and surrounding areas.
