Reviews of KMT Event Group/ KMT Event Showroom (Event Planner)

Xavier Sallas-Brookwell

Kia and the team from KMT made our wedding day spectacular. Kia's responsiveness and straightforward nature put us at ease from the jump. They thought of everything and actually made the process enjoyable. Amanda & Jackie, our day of coordinators, were on top of everything before we could even ask. One of my groomsmen broke his bow tie, and before we could ask Amanda was there with a handful of safety pins reducing my stress. They can handle problems you don't want to deal with (I'm that groom!) and, in the case of my bride, engage full-on with someone deeply interested in every last nuance and detail of the event. Going with them is smart choice. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

I MISS KMT! Is that weird? Maybe to you, but you clearly haven't met these women. I hired them for their Day of Coordination services and think it may have been the best decision I've ever made. From the very start of the process they jumped in at the most hectic time (about a month before the big day) and completely took the wheel. My husband and I were able to focus on things like our honeymoon and our new little puppy in the time that everyone warned us would be absolute chaos. I do not know how they did it, but somehow on the day of I didn't hear of one single issue. My guests kept asking me who these "angels" were and all of my friends getting married after me asked for their contact information. They had a way of making the day of seem like a breeze while simultaneously dealing with our 22 person bridal party, a crazy mother of the bride (sorry mom!) and a puppy ring barer. If I could do the whole process over again the only thing I would change would be hiring these girls sooner. I can't wait to see them again at all of my friends' weddings!!!!

I don’t think it’s possible to fully express our gratitude to KMT. If you do anything for your wedding day, HIRE KMT! They made our wedding day everything we could have imagined. Amanda was on top of EVERYTHING leading up to our wedding weekend. Finalizing timelines, organizing a surprise visit of my cat (sprung on her by my now husband the week of the wedding), reaching out to all vendors, our wedding party... I was dealing with a last minute dress catastrophe and I didn’t need to worry about anything else - KMT handled it all! From the Friday rehearsal to the end of the reception, our team, Amanda, Nia and Jackie nailed it. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting how seamless the whole day was which wouldn’t have been possible without KMT. Oh! And I can’t not mention that although we only booked them for the wedding weekend, we ran into 2 big venue issues throughout the planning process and they were an amazing resource for us! KMT is everything you want in a weekend coordinator... and more!

I wanted to start off by saying THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! to Amanda and Tucker at KMT. Without them I am not sure how we would have made it through our wedding day. After signing on with KMT, Kia reassured us that our wedding would be a perfect and was there to answer any and all questions we had before the wedding. The weeks leading up to the wedding can be a stressful time with so many moving parts and a struggle to create the perfect timeline for the day, however once Amanda (our day of coordinator) joined on a couple weeks out everything became a breeze. It was so easy to upload and collaborate with her on Google Drive and not one detail was skipped over (timelines, photo lists, event floor plans, etc). She contacted all our vendors and made sure that they knew the minute to minute timeline of the day and assured us everything would be amazing, and it certainly was!!! The morning of, Amanda showed up and everything just seemed to slide right into place and any jitters we had melted away. From making sure everything in the venue was set up correctly to getting everyone to and from each area of the wedding on time to even stopping traffic in the middle of Broad Street to ensure we got the perfect photos; we got more then I could have ever expected! We would 100% recommend to hire KMT and Amanda for your wedding as we know for a fact it will be the best day of your life!!!!!

Working with KMT for our wedding was a disaster. We were tossed around from point of contact to point of contact and reprimanded for asking questions. Several of our vendors complained about the lack of professionalism from the day of coordinators and they disappeared during the reception - I’ve never been to a wedding where other vendors frantically come up to the bride and groom asking where the day of coordinators are.To make things easier, we created a list for KMT that was reviewed with our second point of contact but not followed. Our wedding plans changed due to inclimate weather and KMT did not deliver on making the indoor space inviting; our ceremony and reception pictures were ruined (something we will never get back). The day before the wedding we reached out to the point of contact we assumed would be coming to the wedding and asked her to please make sure the room was comfortable and looked decent. We were assured it would be comfortable and beautiful. The room for our ceremony was 90 degrees, everyone was sweating, and instead of taking the time to make the room look nice, a hideous white hospital sheet was used to cover the gorgeous fireplace of a 5 star hotel. My veil and dress also almost caught on fire walking down the aisle (as did my mother in laws dress). Additionally, we rented chargers through KMT that were terrible quality (chipped, faded). They put our favors out before the guests even sat down and further ruined the aesthetic/place settings. They tried to nickel and dime us for small charges and were extremely difficult to work with. I will say the girls that showed up were nice but clearly overwhelmed and had no idea what we had discussed with our first two points of contacts. KMT has free in house inventory which we wanted to donate our decorations to (or have recycled). Instead, they were thrown all over our room after the reception and we spent the rest of our wedding night trying to clear a path so we could go to bed. Kia was extremely rude to my husband on numerous occasions and was always too busy to get involved when necessary. Unfortunately we will never get this day back and we would have been better off spending the money elsewhere with a kinder more experienced group. If you want happy memories of your event, do not work with KMT. We give them one star for showing up (several hours later than they were supposed to).

If I could change one thing about my wedding experience, it would be to hire these girls from the moment I was engaged. I thought I knew what I wanted for my big day but all of my ideas made me extremely overwhelmed (and drove my fiance nuts, haha)! I'm that girl that had 9000 pins on her pinterest board and couldn't limit myself. KMT hopped in and made it look easy, they saw my vision from our first conversation and before I knew it I was walking down the aisle of my dream wedding. I literally cannot thank these girlbosses enough for making this process so enjoyable and executing my vision to perfection. I can't wait to refer them to everyone I know. -Sincerely, Mrs. Didn't Think I Needed A Planner (and was so very wrong)

Beyond impressed with this company. Thank you for making it possible for me and my wife to enjoy the day we planned. We are forever grateful for their ability to problem solve and their serious attention to detail. Word of advice from a groom of KMT past: HIRE THEM!

Where do I start – the ladies at KMT Event Group are truly heaven sent. Since the day that my husband and I met Kia, we knew we wanted to have her team apart of our big day! She never left our side and truly made us feel like our day was just as special to her. We hired the team for design services and day for coordination! Till this day I can truly say this was one of the best investments we made. Up until minutes before I walked the down aisle, I still had so much anxiety and worry about the day! I couldn’t get my veil on and I’m sure she could sense that I was a little frantic. She removed everyone from the limousine except me to “help” with my veil as she said but really spent that time casually talking to me. In that moment I didn’t get it, but I realized soon afterwards that it was her way of getting me to breathe in and take in such a beautiful moment. She reminded me how much my husband loved me and that this day was all about us. One of the best touching moments that I will never forget! When we walked into our reception venue, we were blown away by the amazing décor we provided and the add ons the KMT team includes from their inventory! She took our vision and ran with it! The entire day and night she ran around like a super woman with a smile on her face! This by far was the best day thanks to the KMT team!

I would give KMT events six stars if I could. My husband and I got married about 16 months ago and still reflect on how perfect our day/wknd was and how thrilled we are that we hired Kia and the team at KMT. They went so above and beyond for us, you can tell they love what they do and take their reputation and making your day special seriously. They also used their inventory to help us have beautiful decorations within budget. I wish we lived in the Philly area so we'd have more friends to recommend them to .

I cannot find the words to accurately describe how much different my day would have been had we not hired KMT. There is really no way to describe these women other than angelic! From the very start of the coordination process, I was truthfully, a worried mess. Once KMT hopped in, I felt the stress melt away. They took care of every element from timeline to where my wedding shoes would end up at the end of the night. I thought I considered everything, but they put me to shame. I was able to spend my wedding day in complete bliss as Kia and Amanda floated around my wedding solving every issue and keeping them off my radar. If I could do the process over I would in a heartbeat. Thank you so much KMT for making sure my day was a (mess-free) dream!

If you want a stress free wedding, book KMT Event Group! Leading up to the big day, Amanda was incredibly helpful - she gave me vendor recommendations, reviewed contracts, and pretty much answered any question I had. I can’t even explain how amazing she was the day of the wedding - she brought assistants that were terrific, dealt with all the vendors, keep everyone on schedule, and handled any last minute changes/decisions which allowed me to have a completely relaxed and stress free morning. She set up the ceremony and reception sites (which were beautiful), packed up everything at the end of the night and even delivered our stuff to the hotel. Oh and when someone at my reception got steak juice on my dress (yes, that happened), she was right there with a tide pen, getting it all out! She made that meat juice completely disappear like a freakin' magician! Amanda truly works hard to make her clients happy and their event perfect! The new Mrs.Porreca

Calling KMT was the single best decision I made in the wedding planning process. Knowing that I had Kia in my corner during planning and running the show day of alleviated more stress than I can put into words. She was an invaluable resource leading up to the wedding and an absolute angel day of. From the big things (making sure everyone stayed on schedule, set-up, etc.), to the smaller things (making sure we had a chance to eat and encouraging us to take a minute for ourselves), to the things we never could have anticipated (saving our guests from a crazy swarm of gnats), Kia's help allowed us to enjoy and be fully present for one of the biggest days of our lives. At one point during our reception, my husband told me, "when you first told me that you wanted to hire someone to run the show day-of, i didn't get it. I DEFINITELY get it now. Kia is amazing!" This was honestly an extremely hard review to write. I always like to be completely honest in reviews and address both positives AND negatives. There wasn't a single negative to working with Kia and the positives could go on for pages and pages. If I had to do this all over again, Kia would be my first phone call every. single. time.

There are so many comments I could make about Kia and her team. From the first meeting we had, she made us feel comfortable. We were not sure that we were going to need a Day of Coordinator,but once we spoke to Kia, we realized she was so much more.She offers help, ideas, and professional insight. There is simply no way we could have made it through the wedding day without her. I cannot count how many times she was the source of answers, the strength we needed, and the shoulder to lean on. She and Amanda were indispensable and we all feel so grateful that we found KMT Event Group. The day would not have been as enjoyable without her.Thank you Kia!! You were the BEST idea ever!!!
