On a Friday evening, I sat down with co-founder of Ooh So Fabulous Wedding and Events, Tamesha Moore-Rouse. We talked about the start of the wedding business and what the future holds with the fabulous event planner.

As noted on the company’s website in their “about us” tab, Moore-Rouse states exactly how the company was started by accident. “A friend of ours from the University of Michigan was getting married and a week before her wedding she fired her wedding planner and hired us,” Moore-Rouse speaking of herself and her business partner Kalisha Gaines.

Born and raised in the city of Detroit, Moore-Rouse’s background is in Education. She holds a Master’s in the Arts of teaching. Bachelor’s in Education, Elementary Education, Children’s literature with Drama and Theater for the young. Teaching runs in her family. Interestingly, her father is a retired teacher and always asks when will she get a real job? She laughs as she speaks about him because she states, that he doesn’t realize this is a real job.

Every business owner will have their share of ups and downs of being an entrepreneur. When asked what the ups were she says, “This is my baby, I get to mold it and shape it into whatever I want it to be, its mine.” In that same breathe she clearly lays out what are downs, “But at the same time the downs is, its my baby and if something goes wrong, it’s me that their calling. It’s my partner their calling. It’s all on me now. I’m in charge and I have to make the right decision.”

Every client brings their own unique flavor and trait. When asked what types of clients has she encountered thus far, she had this to say, “We have clients recently that haven’t had that beauty, they’ve said their not pretty enough, or they can’t want for their wedding, so they can be pretty”. Their goal is to provide that client with the Ooh So Fabulous experience by letting them know they are beautiful. Their event is important but they want the client to experience and feel that within. When she finished, the question was asked would you consider this your mission statement.  She quickly replied, yes.

I asked Moore-Rouse about the future of Ooh So Fab Weddings. She was excited to share that recently in September of 2012; they have expanded to a full service called “Ooh So baby”, for the moms, dads and babies. They are also event producers for big trade shows as well.

As we ended the interview, I was given the tour of her great office held in the Metro Work Space facility, in Livonia, MI. They are also expanding out of state as well in Atlanta, Orlando and Chicago.
