Introducing Noelle to A`vie

Noelle has been such as blessing to A`vie and myself. A dear officiant, Donny Dillion introduced me to Noelle several months ago. She just did her first event this past Saturday night and is working on a few more in the upcoming months.

Meet Noelle...

Noelle Raimondo is the latest addition to A’vie Weddings and Events. Although she joined our team in May 2009, she has a variety of event experience behind her dating back to 2003. Her curiosity about event planning stemmed from planning her prom as senior class president. While working closely with a hotel event planner she witnessed a fabulous event for 600 people become a huge success. She also attended her first large wedding that year, which became the subject of her AP composition thesis paper: The Commercialization of Weddings. She then moved from Buffalo, NY to attend the University of Florida.
While gaining a plethora of knowledge through her Event Management classes, she also became involved with the Health and Human Performance College. As President of Rho Phi Lambda, a departmental honor society, she organized events, meetings and community activities for members. As the Events Intern with the HHP Communications Department, she planned a variety of charity and alumni events including basketball and volleyball tournaments, trivia nights, bingo nights, career fairs, and an alumni barbeque. In 2007 she graduated with her Event Management degree and began working weddings as a volunteer with local wedding planners and on her own. She has taken a nationally accredited Wedding Certification Course and is apprenticing with local vendors to earn her certification.
Her Italian heritage and large family has helped her understand the importance of sharing special moments with the ones you love and that even get-togethers can be an event that needs planning! She is blessed to have a loving Christian family and a fantastic church family at UCCC. She has a wide range of hobbies and loves taking classes to learn new ones like playing guitar and learning Spanish. As a sports fanatic, Noelle loves playing volleyball, basketball, softball, tennis, golf…pretty much everything! She also enjoys watching sports and traveling to watch her favorite teams. She enjoys volunteering in the community, and her most recent service project was a mission trip to Honduras.
Noelle enjoys taking her clients’ vision and watching it become a reality! Seeing the smiles on the faces of brides or attendants of a charity event is her favorite part of the job. She’ll do whatever it takes to make your event a huge success, whether it is finding the perfect vendors to fit your needs or offering unique ideas to suit your budget. She understands that your event is unique from any other, and that you want it to be perfect. Her expertise, experience and organization will give you peace of mind throughout the planning process and the day of your event.
