About The Chick in Charge Events

Melanie Graves

Owner and Coordinator

Hello and Welcome! I am so glad you stopped by. My name is Melanie Graves and I am the Owner/Coordinator of The Chick In Charge Events. I have loved hosting parties for as long as I can remember. As a little girl, my birthday parties were always a blast and I never worried about a thing (thanks Mom!). As an adult, I began to realize that there is so much to do behind the scenes, to have each event go off without a hitch. It can be overwhelming and exhausting!

Whether you are planning a wedding, anniversary, milestone birthday, graduation or just a really amazing party that you want to completely enjoy...Ive got You! I want to make your event spectacular so send me a message or give me a call today!

In three words: Calm, Collaborative, Organized

    Great to work with

    Hiring The Chick in Charge Events was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Melanie was incredibly easy to work with from start to finish, and she truly understood what we needed to feel calm and confident. She handled all the details behind the scenes so we didn't have to worry about anything, which allowed us to actually enjoy the day instead of stressing over logistics. On our wedding day, Melanie made sure every element came together perfectly and kept everything running smoothly. We felt relaxed the entire time, and our guests had an amazing time too. We can't thank her enough for turning our wedding into a fun, stress-free celebration!

    A wedding and event planner you can rely on!

    Melanie with The Chick in Charge Events thinks of everything you don’t. She’s proactive and reliable with meticulous attention to detail—exactly what we needed in a wedding planner and day-of coordinator. From initial vision to final execution, Melanie helped us turn our Pinterest board(s) into the best day of our lives. Her versatility is what differentiates her from other vendors. From planning to coordination and every adjacent task, she does it all: budgets, timelines, decor, vendor management, rentals, deliveries, setup and cleanup. Melanie was an invaluable asset from the day we got engaged to our wedding day. Not only was she communicative throughout the entire year we worked with her, she was always approachable and responsive—available as much as we needed her. I remember truly enjoying the process and feeling completely at ease, as she was an absolute blast to work with and had everything under control. Did I mention that our 102F outdoor wedding was absolutely flawless? Melanie really is ‘the chick in charge’.
