Meet the Team
ANGELICA SALA
CREATIVE FORCE + FOUNDER
As the visionary of the company, Angelica's feminine approach and love for design have been the guiding force in blooming her business into what it is today. Throughout the years she has been dedicated to hand-curating a stunning collection of rental pieces that truly speaks for itself.
With a keen eye on style and trends, Angelica appreciates good design and a clean aesthetic. When she isn’t pouring her heart into the business, Angelica can be found traveling the globe absorbing every ounce of inspiration from fashion to architecture, textiles, and décor; which she then infuses back into her work, creating the most beautiful events inspired by the moments found in her every day.
PATRYK SZEWCZYK | TECHNICAL DIRECTOR
You would think that being surrounded by lovely, elegant, and dare-we-say 'pretty' things day in and day out leaves little room for a masculine touch, however, that's where Patryk and our 'Guy Squad' comes in! As the technical director of the company, Patryk manages our logistics department as well as equipment operation. Coordinating heavy deliveries alongside our crew, Patryk manages our team responsible for chair delivery and setup, along with the organization of our ever-growing warehouse. When he's not immersed in the wedding world, Patryk lives to be outdoors in nature, scuba diving in the ocean or cheering on his team, Real Madrid.
ERICA FABIANO | Senior EVENt Manager
From her days of planning elaborate tea parties when she was just a little girl, Erica has always known that she would one day immerse herself into the event and décor world. Fast-forward to today, Erica is a graduate of the Niagara College Marketing + Event Management programs and began putting her education into practice with the Simply Beautiful team in 2019. If you have an appointment to visit the magical showroom, there’s a good chance you will find Erica joyfully assisting clients with pulling their dream celebration together.
You didn’t think the resident Italian girl wasn’t going to keep everyone caffeinated + energized, did you? Dubbed the “in-office DJ and barista”, the team at Simply Beautiful can always count on Erica to spin the hottest tunes and brew up a fresh cup!
Josie PagnuccO | Senior Account Executive
With 10+ years working in the events industry, Josie has tackled all aspects of the events world from coordination to design. With a love for all things pretty and a keen eye for detail, Josie isn’t afraid to take on new challenges! As a recent graduate of Niagara College’s Supply Chain + Operations Management program, Josie’s analytical abilities are a welcomed addition to our team as she is always looking to improve our operations and streamline processes for our clients.
Having grown up in Sault Ste Marie, Josie is a northern girl at heart and is happiest when she’s near a lake, preferably Lake Superior! In her spare time, you’ll find Josie out for early morning bike rides, paddleboarding, restoring her ’87 Volkswagen Cabriolet, and entertaining with friends + family.
