Melissa Rice

Originally from Blue Ridge, GA, I fell in love with Washington in 2015 and haven’t looked back since!

I believe every couple deserves a dream wedding that fits their budget. That’s why I began Melissa Rice Events, offering luxury planning and coordination services at affordable rates.

Planning is my passion. Whether it’s a group trip, birthday party, or wedding, I’m the one who dives into the details others overlook. My philosophy is simple: over-plan now so we can over-enjoy later.

When I’m not perfecting a timeline or coordinating rehearsals, you’ll find me hiking, paddleboarding, or indulging in Bravo TV.

Let me bring your dreams to life!
