NICOLETTA
OWNER, LEAD PLANNER
hello!
I'm delighted to introduce you to the world of fino - an elevated planning experience personalized just for you.
​
Born American, raised Canadian, I come from a big fat Greek family, and married an Italian. We're loving, hospitable and generous to the core, and this is shown in my approach to planning.
I've come to realize that my clients hire me for more than just a planning service - they hire me because of the heart and dedication I put into every part of the planning experience. This is fino. This is me.
​
So welcome, bienvenue! I look forward to meeting you.
​
With fino love,
Nicoletta
hi there! welcome, bienvenue!
a bit about Nicoletta
HER DEMEANOUR
Nicoletta's clients rave about her warm presence, bright smile and charismatic personality that takes the stress out of planning and provides comfort and guidance every step of the way. Her support is invaluable, heartfelt and genuine. Bonus: she prefers hugs over handshakes.
HER STORY BEHIND FINO
Fino, pronounced “fee-noh”, derives from latin origin meaning elegant, detailed and top quality. Growing up, Nicoletta's late Abuela (grandmother) would always talk about the ‘fino things in life’ or the ‘fino way to be’. Their close bond influenced her sense of style and attention to detail. As a dedication to this special bond, the name ‘Fino Events’ is a tribute to her Abuela.
HER JOURNEY
Fino was launched in January 2022, but Nicoletta's venture with event planning began in 2011 with corporate events. Throughout this event journey, Nicoletta pursued a B.A. and M.A. in law and continues to work in both of her career passions. Coffee makes it all possible!

YEAR AFTER YEAR, I FELT COMPLETELY AT EASE ENTRUSTING NICOLETTA WITH THE INTRICATE DETAILS OF THE GOLD PLATE DINNER. FINDING A PLANNER THAT TAKES SUCH CARE AND INTEREST INTO YOUR EVENT IS RARE, ESPECIALLY WITH AN ENRICHED SENSE OF QUALITY AND PROFESSIONALISM.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR DUE DILIGENCE IN KEEPING EVERYONE ORGANIZED AND ON TRACK. YOUR ATTENTION TO DETAIL HAS MADE THIS PROCESS VERY SEAMLESS AND STRESS-FREE. MY A-TYPE PERSONALITY HAS BEEN LOVING WORKING WITH YOU!
