Hi! I’m Shelton, an easygoing perfectionist who cannot WAIT to meet you!

My fervor for festivities springs from a lifelong passion for people. From a young age I have always strived to make others feel welcome, included, and celebrated. When high school graduation rolled around, the decision to pursue a degree in Hospitality Management was a no-brainer for this hostess of the family and friend-group! Four years (and a Belle internship!) later, I graduated from Ole Miss and began a career in the events industry. Prior to joining the Belles full-time, I worked as a planner for a full-service catering and events company here in Houston. This opportunity allowed me to experience events from the catering and design perspective, building rapport with various vendors and learning the ins and outs of venues all across town. I look forward to sharing my expertise, creativity, and people-centric personality with you!

When not planning the next, unique Belle extravaganza, I enjoy a good patio margarita with my fiance, Bob, and our adopted pups, Dixie and Harley. I love arts and crafts, and still host personal parties for every occasion (hello, Galentine’s Day and Ghoul’s Night Out!). I believe there is always something worth celebrating!

In fact, when I reflect on happy or special moments from the past 30 years, most milestone memories are marked by a celebration, big or small. While I can’t recall every detail of each event, I can remember the way I felt. This is my ultimate goal for my clients: to seamlessly translate your vision and wishes into a thoughtfully-curated series of moments that will ultimately become favorite memories for years to come! 

Come make a favorite memory with me!
