Design Prowess & Guest Experience Unmatched... and All Done with Kindness!
Kim is truly one-of-a-kind. She creates the most romantic designs with layers of dreamy details that feel so personal and customized, and I was blown away with how she prioritized guest experience as well! The level of thought and intention that is put into every single last element of a wedding day is truly remarkable. And it's all done with a sense of ease and a smile on her face; her kindness is infectious! She works tirelessly and plans out every detail and logistical element perfectly, especially with all of the additional considerations of a tented wedding. So grateful for her & in awe of her work! You won't regret hiring Kim Newton Weddings! -

Kim Is The Best Of The Best!
Hiring Kim Newton was the BEST decision we made during the wedding planning process. From our first introductory call to the wedding day itself, Kim was always so kind, communicative, and professional. Our wedding day couldn't have been more perfect, and it surely wouldn't have been possible without Kim's creativity, organization, and experience. We were able to put our complete trust in Kim and she sure delivered! She works with the best vendors who were able to exceed all of our expectations. Kim was also always available when needed, and on our wedding day, we didn't have to worry about a thing. We could go on and on about how much we enjoyed working with Kim Newton, and you can't go wrong with hiring her to plan your wedding! -

Wonderful!
Kim was absolutely amazing to work with! She brought such incredible vendor recommendations and always made my thoughts and opinions feel seen and understood, despite the normal wedding planning insanity. She truly went above and beyond on the wedding day and I’m forever grateful we were able to have her throughout the process! Kim will absolutely make your dream become a reality. -

Thank you Kim!
Kim is the real deal - she knows the industry inside and out, has the best vendor recommendations, and is a force of nature for day-of boots on the ground. I had multiple people comment I was the least stressed bride they had ever seen, and that is 100% because I knew Kim had it handled. We are so grateful for her time over our 18-month planning process and for gifting us with a such a beautiful wedding. -

Kim is amazing!
We hired Kim for day-of services for our wedding. I knew that I wanted someone to have a professional eye on everything I had planned, and be there day-of to help keep us on track. Leading up to the event, Kim was very helpful in asking questions I hadn't even though of to make sure no detail went unnoticed. She put together our timeline, and helped coordinate all the final details with our vendors. On our wedding day, Kim was with me every step of the day. She was extremely helpful in guiding us through the day and keeping us on track. She is so sweet and lovely to have around, she kept me calm and made sure I had everything I needed. I couldn't have done it without Kim! 100% recommend. -

Want your dream day? Book Kim!
We cannot thank Kim enough for all her help through the planning process and on our wedding day. She brought us to the best vendors and made the day an absolute dream! We were in pure bliss the whole time not having to think about a single detail and Kim made everything run perfectly. She gracefully managed our families, bridal party, little flower girls, ring bearers, and our pup. If you want a dream of a day definitely choose Kim! -

There is no one better!!
Kim and her team are the best of the best! We talked to a handful of wedding planners and it was a no brainer from the beginning to work with Kim. She makes the wedding planning process so simple, stress free and even fun (which is saying a lot because wedding planning is NOT my thing)! Our wedding could not have been any more perfect thanks for Kim and her team. Thank you Kim and team!!!!-

Kim is a Super Hero, 10/10 Would Hire Again
Kim Newton is an actual super hero. Our wedding day was completely stress free because of her and her assistant. She is kind and patient and can roll with any situation. As weddings go, there were hurdles but she handled them with grace and assertiveness to make our day the best day of our lives. I cannot thank Kim Newton enough. -

Best of the best!
Kim is the absolute sweetest! We hired her for our day of coordination and there is no way we could have done it without her! I had so many questions leading up to the big day and she had no problem answering every single one of them. Our venue is a location that she's worked at plenty of times and she still made it feel so special for us. We were able to enjoy everything about our wedding day with absolutely no worries because of Kim and we can't thank her enough for that. Kim, you're the best!! THANK YOU!

Industry Pro!
Kim and her team were such a delight to work with. Being a bit of control freak myself it was so nice to be able to full trust the team handling the logistics and execution of the day without a single stress. Kim was so easy to work with and a true master of her art. We had such a fun and stress free day and we owe it all to them. -

Dream Wedding
We hired Kim for the full service wedding planning and it was the best decision I could've made for my wedding. Throughout the whole wedding process, she was responsive, organized, and beyond helpful. I had multiple "panic" moments where I would frantically reach out to Kim and she put me at ease every time. She also got me the best vendors and every one of them did an amazing job. As a very indecisive person, she kept me in line and was always super creative with ideas according to the vibe that I was looking to create. The day of the wedding, I was surprisingly calm (which I did not expect to be at all) and it was all because of Kim and her team. The day and everything about the wedding was PERFECT because of her attention to detail and expertise. She exceeded my expectations - made sure everything went smoothly and was there every step of the way for my guests and I. It was the wedding of my dreams and I thank Kim and her team for that! I wish I could relive the day over and over again. -

Organized and knowledgeable professional
We hired Kim as our day-of coordinator for our wedding and she was very helpful for figuring out the details of the day, including timeline and knowing what questions to ask the venue. She gave us great recommendations for other vendors and communicated directly with the vendors in the time leading up to the wedding. She handled a location change that day due to weather seemingly with ease and made it easy for us to enjoy the day and not worry about the change in plans. I'd highly recommend Kim for day-of coordination services. -

Simply put, if you want your wedding to go perfectly, you NEED to hire Kim Newton!!! It was one of the best choices I made during my wedding planning, and I am so thankful for the guidance, assistance, and overall amazingness that she provided me! Kim has impeccable taste and is always keeping on top with the top trends in the industry, and she also makes sure to keep your wedding personal and about you. Her work is constantly being published in local and national publications - her eye for design is exquisite! She also gave me so much help when it came to the day of my wedding and my timeline, and came to the rescue by reaching out to my vendors and moving things around to help me have the day I had imagined having. The day of the wedding, she was A DREAM. My whole family is still raving about how wonderful and pleasant she was, and how on top of every single little detail she was. She is the perfect mix of assertive and cheerful, which is exactly what you need on your wedding day. I have recommended her to many brides that I have gotten the chance to speak with, and when I have met people that have worked with her, we all are able to rant and rave about how amazing she is. I am so glad that I got the chance to work with Kim, and I am so glad I have her in my life!! -

Kim was absolutely amazing. I cannot thank her enough for all of her help and support throughout planning our wedding. I live in Denver, and we got married in Charlottesville at Mount Ida Farm and Vineyard. Needless to day, planning a long distance wedding is HARD and Kim talked me through everything. She was so supportive and professional on our wedding day, I could not have done it without her! Her timeline was extremely helpful, her suggestions were fabulous, and her ability to get everything and everyone where it/they needed to be was pretty awesome. I HIGHLY recommend Kim Newton to be your planner. -

Everything on our wedding day ran so smoothly and that is 1000% because of Kim. She handled a difficult vendor of ours with so much grace and in a way that left me with zero stress. She was so professional and polite and I had so many guests comment on how wonderful she was. Our wedding would have been so different without Kim and my husband and I talk about how much of our day we were able to enjoy stress free because of her. I could not think of a better person to trust with such a big moment and she absolutely exceeded my expectations (and honestly is just such a nice, beautiful person!) -

My daughter’s wedding this past weekend (Georgetown U Dahlgren Chapel with reception at The DuPont Circle Hotel) was absolutely flawless. Kim and her assistant Diane quietly, firmly, but unobstrusively attended to every little detail of a fairly complex event. Guests and vendors fell into the plan without even realizing they were being directed. Since this was a destination event for a bride and groom and families who reside in the NYC/NJ area, Kim was especially helpful in ensuring success given challenging logistics. Her recommendations of vendors were equally valuable. The band was superb and kept the event jumping and the florist executed flowers for the reception exactly as the couple envisioned. Don’t underestimate how critical it is to have someone like Kim managing your event. Thank you, thank you, Kim! For the nonstop smiles on the happy couple and the amazement on the faces of the ~170 guests who enjoyed the celebration. -

Hiring Kim as a month of coordinator was one of the best choices I made in my whole wedding process. For anyone who is debating whether they want to get someone to help them out in the final phase of wedding planning and execution, DO IT! You will not regret it. Kim solved the many problems that came up in the last month (major timing issues at the venue, hurricane rain striking the day of my outdoor wedding) and probably solved more problems the day of that I didn't even know about. I was able to enjoy every minute of my wedding day because I knew her expertise and experience would make the day amazing . I am an obsessively-visual person and was very nervous about the way all my decor would be set up , but she executed the details better than I could imagine, especially with the change of space moving my wedding indoors. Kim- thank you for everything! I know you will make many more brides happy! -

I can't say enough good things about Kim. She was sweet, organized, and professional, and she really helped to soothe our wedding anxiety. The best thing about Kim is her wealth of experience; she knew what to anticipate for every aspect of our wedding, so we were totally prepared in advance and could actually enjoy our wedding day. When it ended up raining on our wedding day, Kim seamlessly delivered on the backup plan for our ceremony. She's THE BEST. Book her now before everyone else in the DC area finds out about her!!! -

We currently are working with Kim for our full service planning. Being a Type-A person, I thought me and my fiance wouldn't need any type of service for our wedding and we would forego a wedding planner -that was until we met with Kim. Our wedding isn't until next month, but I can keep continuing to boast about Kim because that's how great she is. She is very realistic and practical with her opinions, and is able to work with you on your budget. She's definitely a Ying to our Yang, and we are unbelievably thankful for her to be part of our most important day! -

I first met Kim while I was a bridesmaid at my friend's wedding. She was so put together, organized, and calm, during the rehearsal and wedding/reception that when I got engaged a few months later, she was one of the first people I called.
I hired Kim for her day-of services. She gave me wonderful recommendations for vendors, and was responsive and helpful during my entire engagement. Kim put together an amazingly detailed timeline for my wedding day and ensured everything ran smoothly. I would sometimes get a bit stressed about certain things going wrong etc, and Kim calmly reassured me about everything and made sure that the entire day was just what we envisioned. We joked that Kim was the most important person at our wedding, and in a way it was true-I don't know how we could have pulled it off without Kim's professional help. She is the best and worth every penny. -

Kim was just my day of coordinator, but she was everything I was looking for! She was super attentive, thoughtful and creative. She made the day run so smoothly, and everything looked better than I even imagined. On the day of the wedding my sparklers were delivered to my apartment, so her assistant even drove to my house to pick them up during the reception. I highly recommend Kim to any bride, and can't say enough about how great she was. -

We can’t speak more highly of Kim and her work. We hired Kim as our day-of coordinator after friend advised us we should get one. (They were right!) Kim went out of her way to make sure our day perfect -- not a small feat given we had a lot of guests and some unique traditions we wanted to include. She helped coordinate our vendors and timeline long before our wedding day, and pulled off day-of changes without missing a beat. Throughout the entire process, she always addressed our concerns with a smile and did her best to make any request happen. She even picked up some of the decor a few days in advance so we wouldn’t have to stress as much AND went out of her way to track down my wedding shoes after they went missing after the reception. I was so appreciative. I’d recommend Kim to anyone getting married in the area. She was great!! -

I hired Kim for her full-service wedding planning and it was by far the BEST decision I made about my wedding. From our first meeting to the bittersweet ending of my wedding she went above and beyond in ensuring it truly was the best day ever. She helped me find the best vendors, was always available (even responding to my midnight 'panic' e-mails) and could, and did handle any request and question with a calmness that eased any nerve remaining. She thought of EVERY detail and kept me on my toes without stressing me out. My family lives out of state and were not involved in the wedding planning process but Kim filled their shoes with her planning skills and friendship. The day of the wedding was flawless, and everyone kept commenting on how awesome Kim was! I don't think I ever saw her stand still, nor without a big smile on her face! She truly is a gem in the wedding planning industry and there are not enough nice things to say about her. She makes me want to get married every year! -

Of all of the decisions we made regarding our wedding, choosing Kim Newton Weddings was by far the best one. We selected the "full planning" package and it was worth every dime!
Kim is extremely responsive, meticulously organized and was absolutely committed to ensuring we were comfortable each step of the way. She took the time to get to know us and really understand our personalities. As a result, our wedding day was perfectly matched with our styles and was a spectacular day.
As a professional couple with busy schedules, we simply didn't have time to manage the countless logistical details that come with planning a wedding. Staying within our budget, Kim provided us with options for possible vendors, set-up all introductory meetings, negotiated on pricing and facilitated the contract process. From beginning to end, Kim effortlessly worked as our go-between with all of the vendors. We took great comfort in knowing that Kim was running-point on everything. Nothing fell through the cracks because she paid such close attention to all of the details. The full-planning package allowed my wedding planning experience to be enjoyable rather than playing phone tag with countless vendors.
On the day of the wedding, Kim choreographed the many moving parts with a detailed timeline. The only instruction she gave us was “enjoy your special day”. The Kim Newton Wedding team handled every detail which allowed us to focus on each other and celebrating with our friends and family.
We had a beautiful, elegant and sophisticated wedding and we owe the success of the day to Kim Newton Weddings. -

From my first phone call (Kim actually answered after work hours), I knew she was reliable and genuine. I trusted her with every detail of my wedding and she not only delivered, but she came up with amazing ideas and suggestions. She has such a vast range of vendors that she has personally vetted, I could trust her recommendation every time. Looking back, I'm so thankful we found her, because my wedding day would not have been my dream wedding if it wasn't for her!! -

Kim was awesome to work with. Her attention to detail was second to none. We used her as a day-of coordinator but she gave us so much more insight and value all along the planning timeline. Her knowledge of local vendors, ceremony and reception best practices, the FAQs (so to say) were invaluable. She kept us on schedule and the vendors in the loop. Thanks to Kim and her colleague Diana, our wedding went off without a hitch. Hire this young lady to plan your wedding and you won't disappointed! Thanks Kim! -

Kim and Diana helped to make our day stress-free and relaxed. A friend who was married last year recommended Kim Newton to me and I am forever thankful for that. We hired Kim to be our day-of-coordinator, but she did much more that expected. She contacted all our vendors the week of our wedding to confirm all details and assisted my priest in running the rehearsal. The day of our wedding my photographer showed up in my hotel room to take photos of my bridesmaids getting ready, when I realized I forgot to let him know our suite number. He said to me "your coordinator gave it to me. She even contacted me last week. She's on top of her game!" Our wedding was about 180 people with lots of vendors and Kim was able to arrange everything seamlessly. Thank you so much Kim. -

I'm writing this review from the perspective of the father of the Bride, who was more involved perhaps than many other fathers. Kim was the day of the event coordinator at my daughter's wedding for 225 with the reception held at Walker's Overlook, a farm homestead venue located near Frederick Maryland. Kim was presented with many challenges, the first being that the bride's parents live in New York State, making the communications and coordination particularly challenging. The event reception was for 225 held outdoors, on what turned out to be somewhat of a rainy day. There were a number of complications that came up that Kim had to help us work our way through, Limousines, two buses and numerous logistics were involved in orchestrating the process. Kim calmly and smoothly helped coordinate all of the activities and was very flexible in making the necessary adjustments throughout the whole process, Kim was extremely well organized, responsive and flexible. She was not afraid at all to deal with the issues that came up with vendors and seemed to handle the communications in a way that everybody worked very well together to make for a very successful reception. I would not hesitate to recommend her to our friends or to use her in the future. The only suggestion I would make to help her be even more effective is to be more assertive in expressing her opinions with her clients, rather than to defer to their opinions. With her experience, she can help make better calls than she gives herself credit for. -

Kim Newton was amazing. She helped us every step in the wedding planning process and we could not have had the wedding we did without her. She was very organized the entire time and had many creative ideas. Kim even met with us several times before the wedding, including twice at the venue itself to make sure everything was perfectly planned for the event. On the day of the wedding, I cannot express how great she was. She had everything under control. When something went slightly out of order (our shuttles were running late to pick up the guests), my sister was starting to get stressed, but Kim took over and was perfectly calm figuring out what was happening and how to correct it. Kim also did all our flower arrangements. We just ordered them online and she made the arrangements herself instead of us paying for a florist. They turned out to be one of my favorite parts of the wedding and she saved us so much money. We highly recommend Kim Newton. -

Kim Newton was the Day-Of-Coordinator for our wedding. I am SO GLAD I found her on WeddingWire!! She was nothing short of spectacular, and made sure that everything for my event went along smoothly! From the start with our first meeting a month before the wedding, through the day before the wedding, she went above and beyond what I expected. She helped with the timelines, gave us suggestions for last minute vendors, and always checked up on us to make sure the day-of details were squared away with our vendors. There were even a few hiccups with the details throughout our wedding day, which could have lead to disaster, but Kim and her assistant Diana took care of everything seamlessly and professionally!!! I was so confident in Kim that I had not one worry in my head that our wedding day would go smoothly for us. Kim goes above and beyond for her clients, and her services are 100% worth the investment. Do NOT have your wedding without a day of coordinator - and if you do hire one (which you should) - Kim will not disappoint!! Thank you again Kim!! You definitely ran our wedding as your own - It was a huge success, and we were able to enjoy every minute of it with no worries!! -

Kim Newton Weddings was phenomenal. From the planning stages to clean-up after the reception it was so comforting knowing that she was there and that everything was taken care of. While finalizing details and the day of schedule Kim was a great sounding board and came up with many extra suggestions to make projects easier or come together more cohesively. She would send me pictures of ideas I described so that my ideas came to life. I decided not to hire a florist and do the flower arrangements myself (yes, I'm crazy), this left Kim in charge of setting up and decorating the whole venue in addition to keeping track of all the other vendors setting up and ensuring our pictures were kept on schedule. She showed up an hour ahead of our agreed upon time to ensure that everything ran as smoothly as possible and that was a huge help. Everything looked absolutely beautiful at the reception site.
During the event, Kim was the epitome of cool, calm, and collected. I didn't have to worry about a thing! She helped load of my parents car and even helped them unload the car at their house that night. They can't stop singing her praises :) -

Kim is not only a professional wedding planner, she is a fabulous friend. I can promise you that if she plans your wedding you will not regret it. She listened to my questions and always had an answer for me. She will not only make your dream wedding happen, she will become a lifelong friend. -

Kim Newton was great to work with as our day of coordinator for our wedding! We were extremely happy with how everything came together on our wedding day and we couldn't have done it without her help. Her organization with our vendors and planning our day-of timeline was so valuable, not to mention her execution of everything we had planned for the day of, which was such a relief for us! I honestly don't know how we would have accomplished everything we had planned without her and her team's help. She knew exactly when we needed her during the wedding and inserted her help in an incredibly calm manner. We would definitely recommend Kim Newton for your wedding coordinator! -

Kim is very friendly, energetic and always strives to get everything right. We really appreciated all of the work and effort she put into our wedding not only the day-of (which we had hired her for), but also the days leading up to the wedding. Unfortunately, not everything went as smoothly as we had hoped on the day of our wedding even though we had the utmost confidence in her based on our experience with her during the planning. Perhaps we just had too much going on, but it definitely seemed that Kim was overwhelmed on the day of our wedding (we even had guests comment this to us). In addition, we had one major mistake (the table names were set out in a way that reversed the floorplan... for example, our bridal party was in a back corner instead of in the front near us) that she should have caught. While Kim does try to go above and beyond for each client and she helped us in many ways, unfortunately after the wedding we found many areas where things were not done the way we had instructed (for example, some decorations we had purchased were never used and our wedding license was never taken from the church). It was definitely necessary to have Kim help with our wedding, we just wished she could have been as great of an asset on the day of the wedding as she was before the wedding. -

It is very rare that I give anybody perfect scores for feedback but Kim and her partner Diana exceeded our expectations in every respect. I would invite you to call us if you have any specific questions.

Kim was an amazing guide throughout the wedding planning process! Her vendor recommendations were spectacular - every single one made our day so special. We have some beautiful memories - just a few days post wedding, I am so sad I won't be able to keep up our daily calls any longer!! Thank you for everything, Kim!! -

Kim is an incredibly exceptional wedding planner! We had originally hired someone else and when that wasn't going well, we found Kim (via Instagram actually)! Hiring Kim was definitely one of the best decisions we made. I remember reading that a father of the bride once told Kim that she was born to do this job and I truly believe that. We hired Kim for her services that focused mainly on day-of and she went above and beyond! We met with her twice before our big day and walked through the entire schedule down to the minute. She is incredibly detail-orientated and asked me questions that I hadn't yet thought of the answers (and I am a very type A person who takes pride in being on top of everything)! A few days before our wedding, it was predicted that it would rain on our big day. Kim, in a very professional yet gentle way, asked me to order clear umbrellas. This was a reality that no bride wants to acknowledge but Kim emailed me in a way that was so kind yet firm that we would have to deal with whatever weather was brought our way! On the day of, Kim was running around putting out fires that I don't even want to know about because I knew she was taking care of it. I am so grateful for Kim's services and would recommend her to any bride that wants a stress free day! -
