Hi!!!
I am Greta, the Founder and Event Director of Nova Events by Greta McNebb.
I grew up a small town girl in Bulgaria, the daughter of a chef. My fresh and unique party planning style and the dream to be an event planner was born directly from my family’s kitchen.

Dreaming of more opportunities, I took a leap of faith and moved to New York City (20 years old) instantly falling into the niche of the Hospitality industry and NYC’s elite event planning world.

After 17 years of experience producing weddings, corporate and private events, I feel right at home designing and creating celebrations that are curated, unique experiences reflecting our clients vision, their dreams and values. My experience includes 7 years as the Event and Catering Director of one of New York City’s finest and most cutting edge companies where I gained an extensive knowledge of food and beverage management and production.

Possessing the unique ability to use my imagination and fast problem solving skills we transform any challenge into the perfect opportunity to think outside the box, create something exciting, unique, and new.

To us here at Nova Events by Greta McNebb creating an event is a collaborative experience and true team effort. We strive to maintain highly valued relationships with our clients, vendors, and staff.
We believe that it takes the beautiful combination of authenticity, inclusivity, and collaboration to achieve our clients desired results, and we weave those values into the fabric of everything we do.

love for events

the fun stuff

I am a fun-loving wife and a momma of Maximilian Jagger. My imagination is my happy place and I am constantly on the hunt for everything and anything aesthetically pleasing. My personal favorite is all the Boho chic decor, lifestyle, wisdom. I consider myself to be a spiritual gangster and try with all my heart to be as authentically me as I can. I am an Ayurvedic chef and a passionate foodie! I love a good Classic Negroni (not Sbagliato:)) and to dance around my home office every chance I get. Palm trees are my spirit plant, but Proteas make my soul sing.
