We’re on it!

I’m Marie Plummer-Riou, the owner of MPR Events. It is my pleasure to plan social events, religious programs, and weddings in Tallahassee and the surrounding Big Bend area. I understand how demanding it can be to plan a special event in the midst of real life.

Before launching MPR Events, I had spent decades planning several small and large-scale events for family, friends, and church members. While it involved a lot of legwork for me as a working mom, I loved it! I realized how much joy it brings me to bring joy to others.

Despite Tallahassee’s large African American population, there is a shortage of Black event planners in the Tallahassee area. As a Black-owned business, MPR Events specializes in the family, social, and religious events that shape our beautiful culture. From weddings and baptisms to parties and fundraisers, MPR is on it!

I was raised in Jefferson County and have lived in Tallahassee for almost 40 years. I know the lay of the land! There are so many lesser-known vendors and venues in the area that offer quality service and a unique local touch. My knowledge and experience of these resources was a major motivator for me to launch MPR Events.

A well-planned event is a memorable event, and I’m here to help you make memories.

After retiring from the State of Florida in 2021, I was able to embrace event planning full time. I had spent decades planning several small and large-scale events for family, friends, and church members. While it involved a lot of strategy and legwork for me as a working mom, I loved it! I realized how much joy it brings me to bring joy to others.
