We value quality over quantity and are not in the business of churning and burning multiple events in a weekend. We believe this process should foster healthy communication and problem-solving, inspire your creativity and individuality, and most all, be fun. We don't take it lightly that you only get to do this once if your lifetime and it's something you and your loved ones will always remember and reminisce on. We feel a deep responsibility to our clients and take great pride in caring about the details, the preparation and the execution. We may start this process as strangers, but will leave as friends.
We're here to tell your story and we do it with gratitude.

OUR PHILOSOPHY and design approach
Kim discovered her passion for weddings after having to plan her own wedding in just 7 weeks due to an unexpected family illness. In the midst of the last-minute scramble, she never felt overwhelmed: she felt energized. The day turned out perfectly and Kim knew she wanted to plan more weddings to help other couples make their " I Do " dreams come true.
Prior to starting her business, she spent a decade working in broadcast news, winning two Emmy Awards as a producer. She's trained to work efficiently, calmly manage high pressure situations, and think outside of the box to tell an intriguing story. Not surprisingly, this specific skill set lends itself seamlessly to the wedding planning industry. Kim's pride and joy are her two sons, Bradley and Theodore. She is happily married to her husband, Chris, and enjoys cuddling up to her her beloved dogs, Moxxi and Tango.
FAVORITE MOMENT OF A WEDDING:
After the entire wedding party has walked down the aisle - and I get one last moment with the bride or groom before they head out to the ceremony.

what drives and inspires our team
As Fleetwood Mac says, go your own way! And we take that to heart in pushing you to understand your relationship and how all of your experiences together can be translated and integrated into your wedding day. Please don't send me someone else's wedding and say I want my wedding to look like this. I'm a firm believer in that compelling design is often imitated but never duplicated so even attempting to mimic someone else is setting everyone up for disappointment.
You care about individuality over trends and want personal touches that represent your story.
our clients RELISH IN the process and appreciate THE BEAUTY OF COLLABORATION
