From poolside cocktails, backyard BBQs, themed soirees and celebratory showers to the most festive and bright holiday parties, delicious seated dinners and elegantly extravagant weddings, Lisa instills engaging, heartwarming hospitality as she helps friends and guests enjoy the evening of sharing “life” that lies ahead!
Missy Roe
Mrs. Missouri
Husband: Jeff Roe
Founder of Axiom Strategies
Growing up in a home where we ate dinner in front of the television, my knowledge-base for entertaining was pretty limited. Lisa helped me understand not only the basics, but also the special touches that could set my event apart. With her kind encouragement and strong guidance, Lisa provided me the tools I needed to do it right. Over the years I had gathered a hodgepodge of hostessing tips but never felt my events came off the way I desired. Lisa helped me better prepare, narrow my focus and entertain with confidence.

Husband: Dan Patrick
Lt. Governor of Texas
Several years ago, Lisa and Christopher hosted a political event for my husband. Lisa is such a welcoming and gracious hostess. The event centered around tables of amazing and tasty desserts that made it easy to interact with the guests in a casual and fun setting. We especially appreciated how she made everyone feel like family by opening the event with a prayer. It is a model for what all events should be.
A lifetime of entertaining has formed the basis for the love Lisa Lou has for creating hospitable situations and encouraging people to return to the table. She is a strong believer that we learn to "do life" when friends, family and even strangers, gather together to learn from each other. Whether hosting a party for 300 or having an intimate dinner for 12, Lisa Lou’s greatest joy comes when she can provide a gift of respite from everyday life to her guests. She is certified by the Charleston School of Protocol and has a B.A. in Journalism from Texas Tech University. When she is not busy writing blogs, mentoring young women or hosting parties, she enjoys spending time with her family and their Labrador Retriever, Colonel.
