Meet Michele
Owner & Founder of Urban events
She/Her
Hey, I'm Michele!
I work hard for what I want. And what I want is for you to have an unforgettable event. My number one priority is our clients and I teach our team tirelessly to do just that!
A little about me: I'm a 34 year old, half-Kimchi foodie from Baltimore, MD. GO RAVENS!
I am a mom of two daughters, 9 and 8 and a bonus mom of an additional two daughters, 7 and 5 (yes, I'm tired). I love live music, dancing, books, hiking, traveling and spending time with my partner and family.
I'm THAT planner that's laughing with you at your tastings, dropping F bombs at crazy mom-of-the-bride stories, showing sick dance moves at random moments, and eating your cake on your wedding day because after this, I like to think I am helping my friends get married (plus, I can't resist cake and coffee).
Now, sit back, relax, and let's do this thing!!!
Meet Jade
Lead planner
Hi!
My name is Jade and I could not be more excited to work with you on your big day! People are my passion, but there’s nothing I love more than throwing an unforgettable party, especially when that party is to celebrate two people that are meant to walk this earth together. I will do everything in my power to make sure your day is everything you’ve ever dreamt of, but more importantly I’ll make sure we all have a blast through the entire process.
A little about me: I am 28 years old, originally from Duluth, MN (yes, it’s very cold there), and I graduated with a bachelors in business and graphic design. I am happiest on a beach, in the woods, at your local rooftop bar, really anything outside and under the sun, surrounded by good company. When it comes to weddings, I geek out the most over design and aesthetic and I am your go-to gal for everything DIY. Let’s bring that vision of yours to life! I can’t wait to meet you and hear all about your love story.

Meet Melody

Hey there lovelies!
My name is Melody and I am so happy that you are here! My passion has always been in event and wedding planning so being able to do this with Urban Events gives me so much joy. From the initial phone call to the detailed timeline down to the rehearsal, it is a great pleasure to see the big picture come to life. This is YOUR day and we are here to help take all the stress away so you can enjoy every minute of it!
I am originally from San Diego, CA! I went to college in Iowa, where I met my husband. We live in Aurora with our sassy cat, sweet dog, and our little crested gecko! I am a lover of all things food and sweets (if you need me I'll be at the dessert table!). I live for the good times, making memories, singing to 90s and 2000s music, and hyping people up! I look forward to being a part of your big day!
Fun note: Michele was our incredible wedding planner and helped us find an emergency venue in less than 4 days!
Note from Michele: it was the most stressful wedding we have had to date haha!

"Where do I even begin to review someone who did so much! My husband and I decided to have a Colorado wedding while living many states away. We knew we needed someone local and professional on our side to pull off an epic event. We couldn't have done it without the Urban Events team! Without them, we never would have been able to find the amazing network of vendors they connected us with. Even if you don't hire them for a full wedding planning experience, you NEED someone like Urban Events for the day of activities. They basically made the whole day happen and even rescued my bouquet from a random field 10 minutes before the ceremony. Whether you're planning local, or from across the country, I would definitely recommend having a planner like Urban Events on your side!"
