Bridal Bliss and our wedding coordinator, Katy Haley were AMAZING!!!! The process was so easy, streamlined and elegant. From the beginning they were professional and went above and beyond to make the day very special and relaxing. I met with Katy the year before but wasn’t ready to plan anything. Then three months before the date, I called her and asked if they could start the planning process with us and asked if it was too late. She quickly responded with, “It is never too late. I am on it.” I can tell you that I was initially overwhelmed with the decisions that had to be made - the venues, the caterers, photographers that I didn’t know where to start. Bridal Bliss and our wedding planner, Katy Haley, really came through. We gave them a date, and she came back that day with all of the venues that were available. Everything fell in line. They helped pick the invitations, photographers, and everything we could have imagined so quickly. They also got to know us and our tastes so well that they were able to select every little detail that matched with what we wanted . After setting our budget, Katy would provide me with choices of vendors to select from that fell into our budget and she would list them in the order that she thought I would prefer. The funny thing about that was she was spot on every time. She always ended up choosing the vendor that I ended up liking the most. The wedding day was so relaxed and went off without a hitch. I always heard so many stories about how nobody remembers their special day, how they were never able to eat, and they were so busy greeting guests and chasing down vendors and organizing things…that it was never their event… It is always for everybody else. Well, I can tell you that was not us! We started off enjoying our day with loved ones. I remember sitting in my chair getting ready and laughing with my sisters and mom, to sitting in the church in the pews waiting for the ceremony to start. I was so relaxed that I wasn’t even worried about a thing. The reception was amazing!!! We had a wonderful time. Bridal Bliss did an amazing job with the décor and helping us select one of the best bands we have heard. We laughed, ate, drank, and danced all night long. It was an amazing night. And we are so thankful to Bridal Bliss and Katy Haley for making our night memorable and relaxing and ours to enjoy. I would recommend them to everybody I know. Bridal Bliss is amazing!

I cannot thank Elizabeth from Bridal Bliss enough for planning our wedding!! She was absolutely 100% AMAZING and I would recommend her and her company to anyone getting married! Everything went without a hitch on the wedding day and I would not have had my dream come true without Elizabeth. I worked with Elizabeth for the full wedding planning time (the Full Service Package), and I am so thankful that I chose this package. It was so fun being able to plan a wedding with someone who knew all the answers. I feel like I talked to Elizabeth more than almost anyone leading up to the wedding and she was there with me every step of the way. I think this is how a wedding planner should be- no matter what, I knew that Elizabeth would be there to help me through any questions, concerns, etc. Elizabeth emailed me detailed timelines, checklists, budgets, ideas and the list goes on. She didnt miss a beat when it came to organization and making sure contracts, vendors, and schedules were on track for success. Elizabeth ensured that we were always getting the best deal and literally had a connection with everyone you could think of in the Portland area. If I had an idea or person/place I wanted to work with, Elizabeth would take control and put me in touch with them. She made everything SO EASY. On the day of the wedding, I felt so special and I didnt have to do ANYTHING. Elizabeth and her team took care of it all. It was so amazing. When I looked at pictures after my wedding at all the little details, I even further realized how much work, effort and time that Elizabeth and her team put into making my vision come true. I think the best part about my experience was that I truly made a friend in Elizabeth. I felt like she was there for me throughout the entire process whether it was for support, encouragement, advice, someone to listen to, someone to be excited with me or even someone to cry to. Elizabeth is truly the best and I would highly recommend her to plan your wedding!!!

Our only regret is that we didnt hire them sooner. We had a 6 month engagement-to-wedding timeframe - and we hit the ground running: we found the venue and caterer on our own, within 2 weeks. But then very quickly realized we were in over our heads. Not just because we lived out of state, but because we had no idea how to plan a wedding or what was involved. I went for a "meet-and-greet" w/Bridal Bliss - and within 10 minutes realized we had to hire them. And, again, we wish we had hired BB earlier and had them help us with everything from the very start. Because they are professionals and do this kind of thing all the time. There were some rookie mistakes that WE made on our own - hiring unknown or inexperienced vendors with no input from BB - and when those things fell apart, we would call on our BB coordinator Katy and she would give us names of dependable, reliable professional vendors and wed have someone new within 2 hours (that happened a few times - we quickly stopped finding vendors on our own). BB just knows what they are doing. They know who and what is available - and they have endless resources. And they can get great discounts that we wouldnt be able to get. And because they work with the vendors all the time, they can cut some deals and cut some corners. It just makes a MASSIVE amount of sense to hire them. Our wedding was somewhat unique in that we both work in a creative field and we had extremely firm ideas for what we wanted: a very personal wedding - nothing traditional - all of the details reflecting us and our lives. So I would say that we didnt take a TON of creative ideas from BB - in our situation is was more like we went to them and said "This is what we want - how do we do this?" And they helped us to make it all possible. And Katy, our planner, was AN ABSOLUTE SAINT on the day of! I cant imagine how we would have done the wedding without her! She and her team did EVERYTHING perfectly. How do people get married without her?

Bridal Bliss is a top notch company & I would recommend them to ANY couple needing help planning their wedding. The people are what make this company fantastic! Nora & team have a passion for what they do, & it shows in every wedding they are a part of. I personally did not work with Nora, but I feel like I know her via following her & Bridal Bliss on social media. I was lucky enough to work with Elizabeth through the partial wedding planner pkg that includes day of coordinator (BEST DECISION EVER). My husband & I had a decent idea of what we wanted our wedding day to look like, but Elizabeth made it jump off the pinterest page to fruition ;) Of the multiple packages to fit your budget they offer, the partial was the best for us. I didnt know how amazing it was until the last two weeks. Throughout the planning process Elizabeth helped me look over contracts, ask questions to vendors I wouldnt have thought of, and ensure I was checking things off my list, but the last two weeks is where she and her team truly shined and displayed their value ten fold. I was not stressed leading up to the wedding day, obviously there are always going to be a few things that need to be addressed, or fall through the cracks...but Elizabeth took care of all the final organization. We had an issue with the music, that at first I panicked about. Elizabeth messaged me, told me everything had already been taken care of, and all I needed to do was sit back and relax, that she had everything under control from that moment on. To say she had everything under control was an understatement...everything was a well oiled machine running efficiently in the background (EVERYTHING @ event was ON TIME!) Her professionalism, integrity & quiet confidence was apparent to all who came in her path over the course of the process. Truly blessed to have Elizabeth and her team apart of my wedding, wouldnt have been as perfect without them. Follow them on social media & you will understand :)
