I was lucky enough to be paired with Catherine, for our wedding date 1 year out. We chose full service planning which allowed us to email, meet and plan with Catherine as often as we wanted during that year. She is attentive, experienced and allows for your ideas while setting proper expectations during the planning phases. I was able to have the wedding of my dreams with her backing me up and coordinating the best of vendors in the PNW. Not only does Catherine (and Bridal Bliss) have great connections, they have a remarkable reputation, and your other vendors (including your venue) will smile a smile of relief when they know they are the ones backing up your magical day. To have access to incredible vendors, a sincere planning team and a remarkably memorable event, get on Bridal Bliss's books!! XOXO

We hired Ari at Bridal Bliss for my daughter's wedding in August 2024 at the Allison Inn and Spa.
Ari is such a sweetheart and delightful to work with. Most importantly she has such a positive can do attitude which was fun and refreshing.
Ari connected us with wonderful vendors for all of our specialized details for the beautiful wedding.
We appreciated all the meetings we had with her and her quick responsiveness to our emails.
We truly enjoyed the memorable wedding day and because of Ari as I felt relaxed and well supported.
Thank you, Ari, for making it a magical day!!

I can't say enough great things about Bridal Bliss. We loved our experience working with Ari. She understood exactly what was important to us and she put together a phenomenal team to make it happen. She made sure everything worked smoothly leading up to the wedding and day-of. She was organized, with impeccable taste, and she was just a genuinely fun person to hang out with during all the vendor meetings. We felt like we should have been way more stressed in the days leading up to the wedding but Ari made everything so relaxed and stress-free. The day itself was exactly the elegant dinner party that we had envisioned, and it was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined.

My daughter was married on August 21 and we could not have done it without the expertise and professionalism of Bridal Bliss. There are not enough superlatives to describe how important they were to helping create one of the best days of our lives. I would highly recommend carving out a portion of your budget to employ these wonderful people. You will not regret it. It allowed us to enjoy the day, stress-free, with the confidence that everything would be perfect. As with every wedding, there were challenges in the final week leading up to the event, including having to find a new caterer with six days to go. Our coordinator, Kelly, and the owner, Nora, pulled out all the stops to help us navigate this challenge and find a new caterer. I can’t imagine having to solve this problem alone. Thanks to the expertise and professionalism of the Bridal Bliss staff this day will forever be remembered as a perfect day! Thank you, Bridal Bliss!

Working with Bridal Bliss gave us the confidence to enter our wedding weekend truly stress free. We originally had contracted for full-service, but realized we wanted to be more hands-on in researching vendors/budget and things like that, so we downgraded to partial planning and were matched with Candida. She was AMAZING to work with and helped us keep our planning to dos in check.

Partial worked for us because we were okay with managing invitations, initial vendor outreach and things like that to help us stick to budget. I'd recommend that package to any couple that wants guidance throughout the process, but also confident in their ability to manage some things on their own!

Closer to the wedding, Candida reached out to all vendors and confirmed last minute details and totally took the wheel. As a couple, we had to make sure that we had things organized prior to day of (table settings ready, detailed instructions,) but it all made the day of so easy and we have no regrets! On day of, we actually had Candida and two other coordinators helping run things. They directed everything perfectly and we seriously had no hiccups (or at least they hid them from us.) 🙂

Professional, kind, and fun - thank you to the entire Bridal Bliss team for helping us celebrate our perfect day!

I've worked with Bridal Bliss many times within the past few years (I'm a wedding photographer). They are the kindest, and also most efficient wedding planners I've had the chance to work with! I'm so honored to get to share wedding experiences with these wonderful people! Thanks Bridal Bliss for always looking out for both the bride/groom and the vendors as well!

I could not imagine planning a wedding without a professional. My husband was previously married and did not have a planner during the first go around. He expressed how much of a difference it made for the entire experience, not only as the couple but for the family members as well. As two working professionals, the amount of time and energy we needed to put into planning was limited and it was all thanks to our planner, Katy Haley. She made the process task oriented with due dates and kept us informed on the essentials as this was my first (and hopefully only!!) wedding to plan. We would recommend Bridal Bliss to anyone getting married as they were able to provide fantastic vendor options, provided guidance and recommendations, and handled all of the logistics! I do not think the day of the wedding would have gone so well without a full planner. Well worth the expense for the peace of mind and for the full enjoyment of the day as the married couple.

Bridal Bliss was quite possibly the best investment that we made for our wedding day and worth every penny. Though I have an extensive background in event planning - I knew that I wanted a day-of coordinator so that my guests and I could enjoy the day and not have to worry about any last details. From the very beginning Bridal Bliss was professional, friendly and responsive. After initial e-mails with Nora we set-up a meeting with Meghan to review our options. Meghan was super friendly and genuinely interested in getting to know us and our wedding desires. We decided to go with the "day of facilitation" package and then were quickly paired with our coordinator Kayley. I was immediately surprised at how involved Kayley was with our wedding plans - even as only the day-of coordinator. We were in consistent communication and she helped with ideas, vendor recommendations and even helped me track down things that I wanted from pictures! We met in person twice and she created a detailed timeline and communicated with our vendors. Kayley and her assistant facilitated our rehearsal and was there on our wedding day to handle every last detail including helping keep us on schedule. She was so discreet, quick to respond to our requests and even sent me pictures of the set-up to keep my mind at ease that all was going as planned. She was so relaxed as she worked with us throughout the day - it totally kept me at ease. Kayley was truly amazing - professional, kind, honest, supportive (when I couldn't describe my ideas but knew what I wanted), friendly, detail-oriented and patient. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Kayley and the entire Bridal Bliss team - they're the absolute best!!
