Venture North Events

ed us create the perfect wedding day of our dreams. She took all of our ideas and ran with them, making sure we stayed true to our vision, while also guiding us with what she has seen work best in the past. While we picked the venue, she helped us pick out all of the BEST vendors to work with to the point where everyone at our wedding was raving about every detail from the band, the food, the photographer/videographer, and the little details as well. When the wedding weekend came, my husband and I felt like we did not lift a finger the ENTIRE weekend. Kim and CJ as well as the rest of the crew (who were all fantastic) had everything running so smoothly, absolutely nothing went wrong. The biggest stress for us on the day of was the rain, and Kim, as well as our venue, were constantly checking the forecast, checking in with us, seeing what we wanted to do, recommending options but also ultimately letting us decide what to do and it really just worked out so well. Us and all of our guests were so impressed at how well everything ran the entire weekend, to the point where multiple engaged couples were asking for their contact information. Truly could not have imagined a better weekend and it was all thanks to Kim and CJ and their entire team! Special shout out to Brynn, one of Kim's assistants, who stuck by me all day, getting me water, asking if I needed anything, steaming all of our dresses, helping me in and out of all of my dresses, and so much more!

the couples they partner with and put everything they have into giving them the best wedding experience possible. Planning a once in a lifetime party for your closest family and friends can be overwhelming, but Kim was there with us every step of the way leading up to our wedding day. She was incredibly organized and on top of every detail. Kim came equipped with materials and checklists in a shared Google Drive that helped guide us through the whole process. We loved our calls with Kim - they were always focused and productive, but also a lot of fun! She was so supportive and organized and we felt we were in great hands. “Kim is the best!” was a constant refrain around our home. The weekend of our wedding, Kim and CJ were absolutely incredible. They coordinated with all of our vendors, ensuring everything was loaded in and set up smoothly. They worked hand in glove with the awesome staff of our venue, Wylder Windham. We were in awe as it all came together. We felt like we could truly relax and enjoy the weekend with our guests. Throughout the weekend, Kim and CJ anticipated our every need and paid attention to so many details we weren’t even aware of. They were so invested in giving us and our guests a great experience and we felt their care, attention, and support at every turn. So many of our guests and other vendors have raved to us about their experience with Kim and CJ. Weddings can be stressful with so many people involved and countless moving parts, but Kim and CJ dealt with everyone they interacted with with care, kindness, professionalism and joy. We had the most amazing wedding - it lived up to and surpassed our every expectation. We are so grateful to Kim and CJ for making it a reality. By the end of it all, they truly felt like family. If you are considering Venture North for your own wedding, you simply will not find better partners and humans to work with on your big day.

edding date. From the first conversation we knew they got it. We had talked about just wanting to throw a really great party for our friends and family and it was so clear from the very beginning that they were going to be able to deliver on that. After we signed on, Kim immediately started connecting us with incredible vendor after vendor. We would have conversations about the vision/what we were hoping the weekend to feel like and she would always have a great suggestion on how to make it happen. The design deck we worked through was so much fun because you could really start to see what the weekend would feel like as we got closer. Kim also always kept us organized/on schedule without making us feel stressed or pressured. It was literally the most fun project I've worked on because I knew I could trust VNE fully to make sure everything was in place. Once we finally got to wedding weekend, my already very high expectations were completely blown out of the water. Kim and her team were absolutely unbelievable. Every single detail was taken care of and my husband & I (and our families/friends!) truly didn't have to think about a thing. When people ask how the weekend was one of the first words that comes to mind is carefree because I literally didn't have to think about a thing besides enjoying. Also, the design of our rehearsal/welcome party & reception was a million times better than I could've imagined -- truly a vision. I would work with Kim and CJ at any venue for any event in the future, but for anyone considering getting married at Glynwood (which is where we did) I actually can't encourage you enough to work with VNE. The team's knowledge of the property is unmatched and that went such a long way for a property as vast, and gorgeous 🙂, as Glynwood is. I could go on for hours about the team but, all's this to say, work with VNE. They are incredible, caring humans who will make any event the most magical, carefree, unforgettable experience.

be a joy to work with, and we weren’t wrong. As we were both medical trainees, they were incredibly flexible and understanding when our work schedules demanded late night Zoom calls after our shifts ended on Saturday nights, and were so tolerant of our sporadic email responses and yet, they were incredibly on top of every. Single. Detail. Every one! From the smallest to the most important, Kim & CJ seamlessly integrated opinions from us & our parents, and communicated and advocated for what we wanted to our vendors. In the initial planing stages, all of their suggestions for potential vendors were incredibly on pointe, which tells us that Kim truly listened to us when she asked us what our vision for our wedding was. Over the past year and a half of planning our events, Kim & CJ slowly started to become not just our wedding planners but friends as well. On top of that, our wedding was a combination of both Indian & Chinese wedding customs spread out over a 3 day holiday weekend, and they seamlessly anticipated every problem before it arose and even had solutions before we knew things were an issue. They were pros when it came to implementing logistics (rentals, decor, rain plans, layouts, sound, only scratches the surface of everything that they took charge of) and also allowed us to feel present & not rushed on the day of, ensuring that we soaked in the moments and felt present with our guests and with each other. At the afterparty, CJ even stepped up to DJ our after party for us when he found out that it was just an aux cord leading the charge on the music. Every call with them was both productive, and also felt like talking to long time friends but in a way that did not take away from the tasks at hand. Our guests raved about how on top it these two and their team were. All in all, I would throw another event just to hire Kim & CJ again. They were a dream to work with and I can’t imagine a more perfect team than VNE.
