Quarkonia have been studied in different collision system and energy in order to understand the effects of the hot and dense medium created in heavy-ion collisions. CMS is well suited to measure quarkonia decays to muons given the muon identification and charged particle tracking capability. We report here prompt, non-prompt J/\psi, and \Upsilon\ production measured by the CMS experiment in pp collisions at \sqrt{s}=7 TeV. In addition, the J/\psi\ and \Upsilon\ production in PbPb at \sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76 TeV and pp collisions at the same per nucleon energy are measured and compared. Prompt and non-prompt J/\psi\ contributions are separated for the first time in heavy-ion collisions, as is the ground from the excited states in the \Upsilon\ family. Suppression in PbPb at \sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76 TeV is quantified for prompt J/\psi, B->J/\psi, and \Upsilon(1S), as well as the relative suppression of \Upsilon(2S+3S) compared to \Upsilon(1S).
