About ‘ella events by Gabriella Marie

Luxury wedding and event boutique ‘ella events is led by Gabriella Marie, an emerging event planner in South Florida. Gabriella has a unique background in hospitality and event management. She earned her Bachelor’s degree from The University of Central Florida’s Rosen College of Hospitality and has over eight years of experience in the event industry working with weddings, restaurants, non-profits, and social marketing.

Gabriella’s passion for creating memorable events began at the age of 10, when she claimed the role as “Official Family Talent Show Planner”. It was her time to shine – and her family still talks about that show to this day. Since then, she’s spent years being mentored by one of South Florida’s finest luxury wedding planners, worked as the Event and Social Marketing Manager for the Perfect Wedding Guide South Florida, and even spent several years in the non-profit sector managing annual galas and fundraising walks for the National MS Society. Beyond that, she also has experience working in the corporate restaurant event industry for a well-loved South Florida favorite – Rocco’s Tacos.

Gabriella has a deep love for making other people happy. She’s hands-on and works tirelessly to create lasting memories and exciting experiences for all of her clients. She’s naturally a social butterfly and forms a true connection with everyone she meets. Gabriella lives by the saying “Do it with passion, or not at all”.

Outside of event planning, Gabriella finds happiness in all things interior design, fashion, traveling and spending time with family and friends.
