Those words are not qute right. _mel_ is just a word stem.
The word for 'love' is _melme_.

'Luck' was _valto_ only in the earliest version of Qenya from 1910s.
Later Tolkien decided that the word _Valar_ meant 'the powerful ones'
rather than 'the happy ones', so the root _val_ changed meaning to 'power'.
The later word for 'happines, good fortune' is _almie_ or _almáre_,
so our best bet for 'love and luck' is

_melme ar almie_,

which also has a nice sound to it!

Not a very effective method. Follow this link instead:

http://tengwar.art.pl/tengwar/ott/obrazek.php?f=p&s=36&t=dCRqdCQgYEM2IGBDanQlYFY\
=

(In case the link breaks just paste

http://tengwar.art.pl/tengwar/ott/obrazek.php

and

?f=p&s=36&t=dCRqdCQgYEM2IGBDanQlYFY=

after each other in your browser address bar and hit return)
