My biggest piece of advice is to meet with them for an initial consult before you do anything!!! Within the first few minutes together, they will prove what an invaluable partner that they are. They will create a plan and a timeline that is so helpful during the sometimes-stressful process of planning your perfect wedding. Bridal Bliss also has strong relationships with vendors throughout the PNW; this is incredibly helpful as you are looking for the perfect venue, music and entertainment, rentals, catering, paper goods, and the list goes on. I cannot say enough great things about Bridal Bliss!

Catherine from Bridal Bliss was truly incredible to work with for Julian and I's wedding at…read moreWaverley Country Club on Saturday, July 26th, 2025. I was recommended to hire her through some of my mother's friends, and it could not have been more worth it. From the very beginning, she was kind, attentive, and took the time to truly understand our wedding vision - classic and timeless - and what mattered most to us. She was thoughtful and prompt in her communication throughout the planning process, making everything feel seamless and stress-free leading up to the big day On the wedding day itself, Catherine went above and beyond--stepping in to help when we needed it most (especially with our cake!)--all while maintaining such calm professionalism. She was always present without ever feeling intrusive, bringing a sense of ease to the entire day. Her eye for detail and artistry are remarkable, and she carries herself with such warmth, grace, and care that made Julian and I feel supported from start to finish. We are beyond grateful to have had Catherine by our side. She not only helped make our wedding day run smoothly but truly enhanced the experience with her compassion and dedication. I cannot recommend her enough to any couple looking for a wedding planner who combines exceptional talent with genuine compassion and an unwavering commitment to making their wedding day unforgettable. Thank you for everything Bridal Bliss and Catherine!

With full-time jobs and hectic lives, we needed a full-service wedding planner and a seasoned…read moreprofessional. Knowing that this was going to be one of the most important days in our lives, we did a lot of homework and interviewed several planners. In addition to experience and strong references, the single most important factor to us was chemistry. Warm and genuinely caring, we connected with Carisa from the start and knew we didn't want to entrust our wedding to anyone else. The other factors we considered: 1) clear, reliable communication skills - including the ability to listen and really understand our vision and intention for the event; 2) strong organizational skills and follow-through; 3) established relationships with the best vendors; 4) clear design inspiration and passion; and 5) a game-day MVP who calmly directs the show behind the scenes and makes everything run smoothly. Carisa delivered on every criteria, and, in fact, exceeded our high expectations. It has now been over a year since our special day, and we still get compliments from our guests who tell us it was the best wedding they've ever been to! The whole experience was truly joyous and magical, and Carisa and the entire Adornment Events team were essential in making our dream a reality. The financial investment in hiring Carisa and her A-team to seamlessly orchestrate our big day was worth every penny, and we could not have done it without them. We cannot recommend Carisa and Adornment Events highly enough!!!

They were quick with responding to emails and even quicker on the day of with everything. Thanks so much!

I've been to some weddings and work parties where everything becomes frantic and chaotic as the date approaches, but Manda is the perfect solution to that headache.

Lauren was instrumental in making our big day happen and go seamlessly. We are still so amazed, literally nothing went wrong. It was all perfect. The venue hunt was really really helpful too. We were having a lot of trouble narrowing down a venue, and they provided a huge amount of support showing us venues in our price range that met all of our criteria. We had been trying to do it ourselves for months to no success. This service alone was so so helpful! Trying to research ourselves using Google and the Knot and other wedding websites was no match compared to the wealth of knowledge and experience that YPB had to offer. The planning meetings we had with Lauren beforehand were also so super helpful and crucial. They helped us stay on track making sure we got everything done by when we needed to get it done as well as helping us not forget anything. YPB provided so many great resources for planning. And Lauren was able to answer all of my millions of questions that I had. The day of, Lauren and her assistant were amazing at their jobs. They were so calm and professional. There was a couple last-minute schedule changes we wanted to do and they totally crushed it in seamlessly making it happen. They kept us fed and hydrated and happy, gave me bandaids for where my shoes were hurting my feet and kept us all on schedule. I had so many anxieties about the big day because I've heard so many stories about things that go can wrong and I had just accepted that was something go wrong. But now I'm just convinced they just didn't have a good wedding planner!! If you're debating at all, I would say if you want to have a wedding of your dreams, then 100% higher YPB to help.

From thinking of every logistical consideration I would never have thought of in a million years, to providing the most useful resources and high-quality vendor recommendations, to setting up the reception venue more beautifully than I could have dreamed of, to so much more.

Any change to the seating chart or last-minute thing I threw her way, she took in stride. I cannot thank Alicia and the YPB team enough for bringing my dream wedding to life!!

As the months grew closer to our wedding date, my husband and I thought it would be a good idea to ask for Jenny's help. I didn't budget for a planner so Jenny was nice enough to tailor our plan so we could afford it. I'm so happy the way our wedding day turned out. My flower lady forgot some accents for my bouquets and Jenny took care of it right away and everything was how I wanted by the time the ceremony started! If anything else happened, she took care of it and made my day seem so flawless. I'm so thankful for her and if you're having second thoughts on a planner, Jenny will not disappoint! Do it! :)

Kelsey is kind but definitive, listening to your ideas and concerns, and at the same time moving you forward in your planning process.

The Vanity Affair team is responsible, smart, and quick to adapt to any wedding scenario. They were essential for my wedding weekend and ensured that it was executed with fluidity and sophistication. When you hire Vanity Affair Events, you not only get a team of highly creative and organized professionals, you also get some new friends. My family and guests loved these ladies almost as much as I did!

She turned into a friend during our wedding planning year. The whole family enjoyed sharing the weekend with her. She even acted as a "therapist", coaching me through the emotional times throughout the wedding week haha! She does her research on whatever you provide her with to fully understand your wedding ins-and-outs. Lisa has great taste. You can trust her to get your theme and design concept and make decisions for you to enhance your event! Picture below for proof:
