  • Kim’s range of abilities is genuinely astonishing. She is creative, organized, artistic, analytical, and one of the most all-around capable people I’ve met. We had a strong sense of what we wanted our wedding to feel like and Kim immediately got it. She brought beautiful, inventive ideas to the table and helped us weave meaning and symbolism into every aspect of our day. Kim navigates the vendor world with ease and was a strong and successful advocate whenever we needed one. Her calm, joyful presence on our wedding day was a gift to us and our families.

  • There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to have worked with you on our wedding. It was such a joy to collaborate with you, every step of the way. Especially since we were planning from afar, we’re so grateful for your calmness, your organization and the knowledgeable professionalism that you brought to this stressful process! We’ve been so relieved to know that this important day in our lives is in such good hands, thanks to you.
