A young professional who has been fortunate enough to gain experience in all types of events from corporate grand openings to theatre wine and cheese nights, but ultimately her favourite to plan and create has been weddings. Her background in theatre and media communications, allows her to approach all events in a very unique way, not only focusing on the logistical aspect of the planning process, but also focusing on creating an event that is creative and unique, like the couples that are being celebrated.
She decided to team up with her family, to give couples an opportunity to have planners that understand all the challenges that come along when planning such an important day.
Emilia holds the W.P.I.C. certification from the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada, the only professional association in Canada whose accreditations are recognized nationwide as a dependable source for providing wedding planning excellence.

“As young girl growing up in an Italian household with a large family I would constantly be organizing birthdays, talent shows and movie nights for friends & family. This really nurtured my passion for planning and most importantly it made me fall in love with the feeling of making people happy and creating those unforgettable moments that people talk about in their later years and look back on fondly. My ultimate goal is to bring that same passion and heart to your special day.”
