About Me

Kim is the fun-loving lead proprietress of The Estate at River Run and owner of Kim Moody Design, who balances life as a mother, wife, and boss lady all wrapped into one smart business gal. Her calm nature brings you instant peace, and her strong will can, and has, made the impossible happen. Kim's Master's Degree in Conflict Transformation with an emphasis in Negotiation has given her a very specialized niche in the wedding industry. She has spoken at national wedding conferences across the United States for audiences as large as 3,000 event professionals. She has a wall full of diplomas and educational certificates and is constantly enrolling herself in something to continue learning and growing as an individual! Although very business-minded, Kim lets her vibrant and contagious personality shine through! In addition to all she does, Kim works devotedly as an advocate for the wedding industry, especially over the past decade. At the national level, Kim is a member of the Live Events Coalition - a network of 12 million live events professionals across the United States. Within the State of Virginia, Kim served as the Advisor to the President of VOWS, the Virginia Organization of Wedding Standards. As a founding charter member, Kim worked alongside VOWS to actively lobby for the wedding industry in its recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic during the time the wedding industry was crippled by the red tape of the government shutdowns. The weekend or two a summer when she isn’t working, you will find her having a blast at the lake. She values her time at Lake Anna with her son, daughter, husband, and cockapoo Teddy [Roosevelt]. You’ll find her swimming, boating, and hanging on the dock in the sunshine.

The Estate at River Run

A blue checkmark inside a light blue star shape.

The Estate at River Run is an opulent, Georgian-style mansion set high on a bluff above the James River in Maidens, Virginia — a breathtaking canvas for weddings and special events. With sweeping terraces, majestic architecture, and elegant indoor spaces, the Estate offers couples a picturesque union of natural beauty and refined grandeur. Inside, ornate chandeliers, marble floors, and gilded Corinthian columns evoke the richness of European manor houses, while multiple ballrooms, lounges, and a stately pool house offer endless possibilities for ceremonies, receptions, and celebrations of every size. Whether you’re walking down the grand double-curved staircase into the marble foyer, enjoying cocktails beside the river at sunset, dancing under sparkling chandeliers in the Wedgewood Ballroom, or waking up in luxurious suites with river views — the Estate promises an immersive, all-in-one event experience. For couples seeking privacy, elegance, and a sense of timeless romance, the Estate blends historic charm with modern hospitality. From intimate elopements to lavish weddings, every celebration is treated with care and crafted into a lasting memory on this unforgettable estate.
