About Melissa & Andrea Designs

M&A Designs

After successfully planning and executing her wedding (and postponing and replanning during a pandemic) Melissa Andrea Bressner and her mother Andrea Koumjian founded M&A Designs with one goal in mind: to design and execute unforgettable, personal weddings. From small, intimate affairs to large-scale celebrations, we strive to host weddings that not only aim to impress but also create unique experiences for our couples and their guests that last long after the music stops.

Having planned my entire wedding by myself, I completely understand the emotional rollercoaster that goes into the process, which positions us to be able to better support you as you do it. We’re uniquely positioned to be realists since we know how the day goes, as well as enthusiastic since we’re doing this purely because we love it!

In three words: Flexible, Organized, Supportive

    Melissa was an essential part of our wedding day. Her communication style was open, honest, and easy, which made planning our special day a breeze. She is kind and understanding, and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. I booked a pizza truck for the reception and didn't realize they wouldn't bring the pizzas inside, Melissa ran the pizzas up from the truck into the venue, handling that hiccup effortlessly. I truly couldn't have done it without her expertise, as she handled all communication with vendors on the day of so I could just relax and enjoy the celebration.

    Melissa was a dream Day of Coordinator! She took on the communication with the venue in the last few weeks, and her work made our wedding flow seamlessly. From learning the intricacies of a traditional Jewish ceremony to remembering the small personal touches we wanted to include, she ensured no detail went overlooked. Thanks to her, my husband and I were able to relax, be fully present in each moment, enjoy our wedding day without worry, and actually eat! I highly recommend her for any couple who are planning their own wedding and don’t want to worry about the details the day of.

  • Melissa is the best!

    Melissa was our day of coordinator for our June , 2023 wedding and I can honestly say our perfect day would not have been a reality without her. In our meetings leading up to the wedding, she made us feel calm while also making sure we had thought of every detail. On the day of the wedding, we arrived to our venue with it fully set up in the style of our dreams thanks to her attention to detail and organization. Throughout the night, we didn’t have to think twice about logistics and everything went according to plan. She makes it all look simple, when in reality I know there was so much happening behind the scenes. I can’t thank melissa enough and would highly recommend her!
