Welcome aboard the wildest ride of my life.... I feel like I’m listening to the attendant on the Scream Machine at Six Flags telling me to: “Strap In and Enjoy the ride”
I’m referring to my baby…..my business venture of course…

…and I’m inviting you all to come along for the ride!!!
It’s crazy when you are WORKING HARD for something you LOOOOOOOOVE…..you don’t even feel the pain, the sweat, the lack of sleep (but I have the darks circles to prove it)!!
Where are my manners???? Let me introduce myself….my name…

Melissa Olivia Judith Allwood
Let me tell you how I got here…been through the school system, high school, college…A.A., B.A. and on my way to an M.A.
Great job….check
Benefits….check
Security….check
Happy…..???
Joy…..???
Yeah um…my 9 to 5 wasn’t doing the job of bringing me happiness and joy….despite all the great perks it offered……what-was-my-problem??? Sigh…But I took note that when I was managing a project for work, family, or church I was in my element…all of a sudden I transformed from Melissa…the “Sweet-Nice” girl…to
Savvy, Chic, Sassy, Confident, Efficient Event Designer Extraordinaire, (cue the trumpets)….my voice changed, my ZERO tolerance for inefficiency was raised, I was focused….and there…in the midst of planning…organizing…delegating….creating….

“MOJA”
was born…well she’s was always there…buried underneath piles of 10-page papers, an overdue thesis, 50 pound text books, worry and fear about passing a class, and paying back my student loan…but after every event I got a glimpse of her and she wanted to be free…
I did my first DAY OF COORDINATION for a good friend…and it was like I had done it for years…I was moving and shaking things up…I was in my element…In seconds I was on familiar terms with the limo driver, the pastor, the venue maître d’, I was all…“Hello Mr. Florist…you forgot the flower girls’ basket and I need it NOW” and what was even crazier was the way everyone looked to me to handle everything…I LOVED IT… But my mission was making sure that the Bride and Groom were happy and they were!!!!
