Growing up in Niantic, CT, I was surrounded by the warmth and inclusivity my mom, Eileen, brought to every gathering she planned. She had an incredible way of making people feel like family, whether they were old friends or meeting for the first time. Those memories inspired my passion for celebration and set me on a path toward event planning.
With over 15 years of experience and the unique perspective of planning my own wedding during the pandemic, I’ve come to appreciate just how meaningful it is to bring joy and ease to life’s most special occasions. Through Coll It Entertaining, I’m here to help you celebrate the moments that matter most—whether they’re big or small—with care, calm and precision.

CREATING
Memories

Growing up, my mom, Eileen, owned a reunion planning business, bringing high school classes together for memorable gatherings across New England. I loved helping her create yearbook photo collages, nametags, and notebooks for each event. Watching her create spaces where everyone felt welcome inspired me deeply.
Throughout high school, I as always the friend organizing birthday cupcakes at school, and my home became the pre-prom gathering spot. In college, I took on leadership roles in retreats, my swim team, and service trips—finding joy in creating moments that brought people together.
After my mom passed away in 2009, I knew I wanted to honor her legacy. She had an incredible way of making everyone feel like family, and I strive to bring that same warmth and connection to every event I plan.

Mom's footsteps


CHERISHING
Love
In October 2020, I planned my own wedding in the midst of the global pandemic. Despite the challenges, keeping our original date was important to us, even if that meant making some changes to our original plans. We adapted every detail to meet COVID guidelines, and in the end, our day exceeded all our expectations. Now, I'm here to keep love at the heart of your day, ensuring every moment is as meaningful and memorable as you’ve dreamed.
