Hi Melanie! How do I sign up for your event planning classes?
Hello Ms Melanie, When are you doing your class in 2022? I ask this question but I always can't find when you answer. When I'm looking at you on TV. I don't know how to ask questions or make comments. I watch a lot lot of your videos. Any suggestions..in what order to watch because I bee all over looking at as many as I can to learn stuff. But I want Honey book. I want to take c k ass so I can be certified. Where do I start?
@@john1018hill hello! You can start at Luxe academy online or in person. Here is the link: luxeacademy.podia.com
@@LivingLuxuriouslyforLess awesome will be in touch. Thank you
The virtue class for pricing was exceptional. Melanie evening went above and beyond to give advice with pricing adjustments.
Thank you so much for this Melanie! Very helpful! You were definitely speaking to me with your biggest challenge when you started. I definitely struggled with imposter syndrome and your right, doing events for family and friends and at work definitely helped me to over come that and sometimes I still struggle but just remind myself that I am qualified by God and he has blessed me with this gift to be a blessing to other through my gift! Now I have happy clients and my business is growing! Also not to mention I’ve learned so much from you! 😉🤗❤️
Very informative. God will forever bless Mrs. Melanie she has a heart to help others and don't find it robbery to extend a hand. I cannot wait for Luxe Academy.
Melanie you are fantastic. I love your Biblical comments. As well as your fabulous events.
Great video...I have had that same syndrome until I started praying more, believing in myself and knew I can do great work just as well as others. As a beginner Event Decorator I continue to learn, practice, stay positive, and focus. Thanks for always sharing great content videos. Have a blessed day.
Guys.....honeybook is the bomb!!! I purchased it because of Mel's video. People do see you as more professional when you use it. Also...the bonus....CONTRACTS...this saved me a lot of time♡♡♡♡♡
Thanks so much doll! The contracts are everything!!!
Thank you so much Melanie for all the responses. I learned so much. Just starting out in the industry in the Virgin Islands and really trying to avoid mistakes and to learn as much as possible from industry experts such as yourself. I appreciate you. God bless you and your business to prosper even more. 🙏🏽❤🥰
Awesome!
Great questions and answers! Super excited about the class and certification. Congratulations Melanie!
Take the class it is soooooooo VALUABLE!!!!!
Thanks doll!
Thx for the Q&A session. What is your storage solution for your inventory? Be blessed!
Thank you so much Mel for all of your tips, tricks and advise that you give us! You are such a blessing! I’ve been following your for a while now and you have really helped me grow my business. So my question is how and where do you store your inventory? And by the way thanks for the HoneyBook discount your contracts and questionnaires are everything I can’t live without it now🤦🏾♀️🤣
I'm so glad!
Thx Melanie this was great! Omg! Certified Designer? That will be awesome! You’re such a blessing! And, your virtual lesson was fabulous! I was clueless about pricing before registering. You provided a wealth of information for a nominal cost. Definitely recommend!
Thank you so much beautiful!!!!
How do you transport the pipe and drape. Do you have a special bag?
@@richellechandler6242 I don’t... I wrap them in shrink wrap.
You’re beautiful and a blessing. I learning so much from you. You’re very inspiring. You’re so smart.

My pleasure!
Hi Miss Melanie,
I love your channel. I have been following for ideas and inspiration for awhile now. Sorry for tuning in so late. Great tips! Just finally recently commented during your inspirational prayer and preaching and that amazing teddy bear baby shower. Absolutely beautiful!
Challenging question for you. My coworkers who are amazing and have helped me during my last events in 2019, before the pandemic, will probably tag on to this question. They were absolutely amazing at our retirement office event and Holiday party in 2019. This is my question, let’s say you’re the one deem with all of the party or events in an office setting. Better yet, without any funds to do so. Except for the donations of employees.
Let’s say, retirement parties, baby showers, etc!
It’s a sticky situation within a federal government office setting! There is no allotted budget for these events, but yet I manage, mostly out of my pocket!
Although I have found this challenging throughout my Executive secretarial career, I have always made it work! A course with most of the funds collected from other colleagues being put towards the gift!
I manage, have been for over 25 years. My question, how do I specifically bring up the fact that my federal agency should really have a set budget for such events. There are certain federal guidelines put in place. I can’t disclose the agency but it’s about time they really consider these events.
Just last year during the pandemic and continued pandemic there have been a boat load of retirees. There’s so much I need to do before we get back to work. I feel so bad they didn’t have their parties. I’m in a bit of a pickle.
Your suggestions and insight would be greatly appreciated. Attached our last retirement event with my divas and inspired by you!
Oh I can’t attached it. But you would love it. Thank you for your inspiration!
Great video and very informative... You are just acgreat teacher and trainer.. Just like a great mentor 👌👌👍...Love from Seychelles island once again 😍😍
Thanks for sharing awesome advise
Always a mountain of info!!! Thank you so much 😊
Thanks for the information
Just purchased the pricing class. Very excited
I would love to do an in-person class when you start back. Im in Georgia but I'm definitely willing to drive.♡
Happy Sunday😍
Thanks so much doll!
thank you for answering my question
Question: when do you receive your full payment? Do you do a deposit or collect full payment when client signs contract?
2 weeks before event
What is the cost to rent out a floral wall backdrop that’s 5x8ft or 8x8ft? I didn’t hear that answer.
Depends on your area but $300-500
I can’t wait to join the virtual class 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Lord have mercy I know this video is older but he knew I needed to hear this, first I'd like to say thank you for sharing your craft with us. Your work is absolutely stunning. I currently have 4 events spreaded out in my dinning room that I'm not getting paid for. I've done this as a hobby for years for family and friends. I got sick and I can't work and my husband said it's time for you to get paid for your craft. I believe God closed one door to open another.. I wished I could share some pictures of my way. My problem is I don't know how to charge people. I am waiting for your June 15 class. Thank you so much 🥰
Wow Tawnya! I can only imagine what your DR looked like. You have a great heart and I hope you're back in good health. I agree with your husband. I know someone who was in the same boat for awhile, and frankly people were taking advantage. I, along with others, encouraged her to begin charging. Even scripture says A workman is weight
Oops,. A workman Is worthy of his hire. Luke 10:7. Charge girl. My friend charges handsomely now. I wish you the best.
Beautiful ❤️👍👍
Hi there, I am looking to make my own floral drape wall. Do you have any suggestions where I can get high quality, full, luxurious floral panels like the one in the video? Thank you!

Great questions & answers! I have a question regarding your statement about becoming certified after completing Luxe Academy. Does that apply to former Luxe Academy attendees?
I will have a grandfather option. I didn't physically test or have an assessment in place for you all that did not attend in person and so I am trying to work around that..
@@LivingLuxuriouslyforLess ok great!
Where did you get the white tableskirt with the diamond pattern from? I love it.
It was custom made...
@@LivingLuxuriouslyforLess thank you. I really like it.
@@eukrinajohnson8395 thank you
Thanks 👍 IAM Abdulah from Uganda and I want to start that business advise me how to start it,, remember I don't have any skills in design and decoration can I do it?
I have an online school that is perfect for beginners.
Interested in the virtual classes!!!
i adore your work...where do u purchase your fabrics for premium draping? or do it not matter who u buy from?
It doesn’t matter honestly.... Efavormart is my go to for sequin as they don’t have the backing that makes it difficult to drape...www.efavormart.com/LL4L
Do you advice shopping for party supplies from alibaba?
Hey dear total how many roses you used in this wall? What is the size of this wall?
The link to purchase it is in the bio… so didn’t make it doll
