owner Nicole Mercury
wedding planner and decor and design specialist

I absolutely love to travel—give me a beach, sunshine, and a good book and I’m in my happy place.

I bring that same excitement, creativity, and calm energy to every couple I work with. Alongside my work in television news for one of Canada’s leading news organizations—where tight deadlines, quick decision-making, and high expectations are part of everyday life—I’ve developed the precision and adaptability that translate beautifully into wedding planning. These skills allow me to capture your vision and tell your wedding story in a way that feels seamless and memorable.

I'm Nicole

My goal is to ensure you never miss the beauty and emotion of your wedding day. What I treasure most is the relationships built throughout the planning journey—because when you trust me and my team with one of the biggest moments of your life, I take that to heart. I’m here to bring your vision to life, exceed expectations, and create a celebration that feels uniquely yours. With an amazing team at Simple El'egance Events we've fostered excellent working relationships with wonderful partners, trusted vendors, and recommendations for every style and budget, we’re ready to make your wedding planning experience fun, stress-free, and truly unforgettable.

hey there

I'm Donnicia

"I love exploring the world—from Dubai to Bali, Italy to Spain—every new destination feels like a fresh adventure waiting to be discovered. My travels have given me endless design inspiration for the beautiful weddings I’m blessed to plan."

Weddings are more than beautiful décor or perfect timing,  they are among the most meaningful days in a couple’s life. My passion lies in transforming the vision that starts in your heart into a seamless, stress-free, and joy-filled occasion. Every detail is thoughtfully curated so that from the first look to the last dance, your day feels as magical and effortless as it should.

Why This Day Matters

Your wedding isn’t just an event,  it’s a reflection of your love story. It’s a celebration of who you are as individuals and as a couple. That’s why I guide and support you at every step, ensuring the planning process is just as joyful and exciting as the big day itself. Because nothing should feel like work when you're celebrating love.
