Melissa Andre, Founder/Creative Director & Château Caretaker

The day after Ioanna’s wedding last summer, we ambitiously aired an episode of Sip With Me while we were still recovering from the Greek tradition of dancing all night and breaking plates. It was iconic because our guest was an icon, Melissa Andre, Founder of Melissa Andre Design Co. and, according to our episode title from last year, a “Château Innovator”. She’s planned events for the most “A” of the “A-List” celebs and has a vision for creation that is unmatched in today’s event planning market. Melissa is BACK to get all the tea from Ioanna & Aaron about the wedding, including the good, the bad, and the juicy drama. Plus, Melissa tells us about how wedding & event season 2023 is shaping up when compared to the record smashing, post-pandemic social palooza that was 2022. Literally our social batteries are still fried! And, Melissa gets a brilliant idea for a podcast, which we are manifesting and would love to invest in once we ever make a penny from Sip With Me. We finish with a hilarious update on the Château and Melissa tells us what a pain in the a** renovations can be. We truly love Melissa and her support of our show has meant the world!
