Hi! I’m Elle, Owner and Lead Planner. Simply put, Belle Leroux Studio is a love story that was 22 years in the making.  I met my husband, Christian, in early 2001 when we were only 13 and 14. We attended the same middle school on an army post in Maryland, as both our dads were active duty in the military at the time. We were high school and college sweethearts. However, it seems life had work to do on us both, as we parted ways and didn’t reconnect until 2019. In June 2020, we made the decision to become a blended family with my beautiful bonus daughter, Riley. Belle Leroux means “Beautiful red-head” in French. Riley was a strawberry blonde when we met and she is the inspiration for the name! My husband and I married in December 2021 and I discovered the love of being a parent, along with my passion for the wedding industry. Our girl is fierce but kind. She is friendly and inviting towards other kids. She is confident, creative, a problem-solver and so stylish. She IS Belle Leroux.

After close to a decade of corporate event planning and consulting experience, I decided to embark on my journey as a Professional Wedding Planner. In early 2024, we decided to open up to other event types, as we love celebrations of many different occasions. I not only have a passion for planning, organizing, and design, but a deep love of people and building lifelong friendships.
