Your Perfect Bridesmaid

team you need. She was a total pro throughout the entire process, and advised us on everything from rentals, how to best structure our event, decor and more. She was so effective at interpreting our wedding vision from vague descriptions! She was extremely responsive and communicative throughout the entire process. On the day of, she was a calm presence and coordinated everything so flawlessly, we just got to enjoy our event without worry. Our venue required flipping the ceremony space for dinner hour, and I can’t believe the beautiful setting Alexis and team created without photos of a planned design. After the wedding, our parents and family members who interacted with Alexis during the day of coordination couldn’t stop raving about how wonderful she was. So impressed with the quality of service provided by Alexis and YPB!

uch wedding experience available to ask questions and get her recommendations as we finalized our wedding plans. We had quite a few vendors to coordinate and lots of décor to set up and she made everything run so smoothly on the day of the wedding. Shelly and her assistant planner were super friendly and attentive and made it so much easier for us to be able to relax and enjoy our wedding day. We definitely recommend Your Perfect Bridesmaid!

dy done a ton of planning so Kimberly recommended the Sanity Saver package after discussing my needs and such. Sanity saver indeed! Alexis was our lead planner - and we couldn't have been more grateful for her! She was super calm and informative, and I had zero hesitation or worry handing off the execution of our day to her. When we arrived at the venue - everything was perfect! We'd see Alexis just at the right time when she'd come by to check on us, deliver a drink, and keep things running on time. She stole the hearts of our family as well :) Needless to say, Alexis was way more than a 'day of coordinator' for us - we were blown away and so very grateful for her. Thanks Alexis and YPB!!

ordinated everything perfectly. I would recommend them to any couple!

with some of the other vendors and how to go about executing other details for wedding day. I knew I wanted to do most of the planning, but I was going back to school for my Master's degree and knew I was going to be busy and would need some help. I called a few different wedding planning companies, but when I talked to Kim, the owner of YPB, I felt so comfortable and she explained all their services without being pushy and I remember getting off the phone thinking "that's exactly what I need!" For the rest of the planning we were assigned with one of their lead planners, Katelyn. She was absolutely amazing! I believe we did the signature package because we wanted to do most of the planning ourselves. With this package we had a few planning meetings, a walkthrough, and 2 planners available on site for wedding day for 10 hours to set up and coordinate. From the first meeting (which was about 8 months before our wedding day) Katelyn had already helped us put together a rough draft of the wedding day program, a checklist of when certain vendors or planning tasks needed to be done, and some recommendations for other vendors that we still needed. She was always available to answer questions throughout and really helped us execute our vision exactly how we wanted. She did an incredible job being flexible and calming our nerves when there were last minute changes. I can't say enough how much stress she took off my shoulders!! I'd also like to mention that summer of 2021 was a BUSY wedding season, but Katelyn always made us feel like our wedding was top priority, although I know she had her hands full with many other events. We will never forget Katelyn and YPB and will be forever grateful they helped us make our day perfect!

g she had hundreds of other weddings going on! I would highly recommend any bride looking for someone to keep them on track and provide excellent industry insight into planning events to choose Kim and her team! I was still highly involved, but as we were planning a wedding out of state, the vendor recommendations and extra guidance were invaluable!

still decided at the last minute to change things up and the days leading up were really stressful for me. It was amazing to be able to just hand it off to the YPB team and let them do their magic. Our wedding was perfect. It was exactly what we wanted and had talked about and throughout the day the team was always there to check in on us and make sure we were doing well and didn't need anything. They made the few change overs from ceremony to dinner and cocktail hour to dessert effortless and I didn't even notice they had happened until it was already done. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a great team to help make your special day perfect!

shined all other vendors. From beginning to end she kept in constant communication and checking in to make sure we were always aligned. I’m from AZ and had our wedding at the crook point venue. I can’t say enough about Kim & her team other than you should just stop reading this review and hire them. I promise you they are exactly what you need in making your dream come true. Thank you, Kim + Team for making our dream wedding come true! I’m thankful to have found such an awesome team to have trusted in making our vision into reality! Xoxox, Veronica & Jamie

end that I trusted to make our wedding day exactly how we wanted! Especially during COVID. She was friendly and answered my call no matter how many anxiety attacks I had regarding a decor. She reassured this bride that everything was going to be amazing! So it was. Thank you for everything Sam!

age from them, and I'm glad I did. At each step of the planning process, Kim and the team sent us a list of vendors that fit out style and budget, along with quotes and ideas. So we still chose everything, but we didn't have to go through the crazy quoting process for each thing. This was especially helpful as both our jobs got way more demanding as COVID vaccines went up, and we had less time than we thought for planning. Not only did they know the COVID requirements at all times, they were more than willing to work with us, on our schedule. On the day-of, they helped us solve a missing cake crisis (and still got a delicious cake for us!), and then they pulled the ultimate savior move: when our ride to the hotel no-showed, our wedding coordinator Kimmy cleaned up her car and drove us herself for thirty miles so we could make it to the hotel that night. Our own parents said no to driving us, but Kimmy stepped up! I truly could not recommend these folks more. If you're an anxious bride like me, or feel overwhelmed by the process, you should absolutely hire Kim and the team.

s and all of our vendors on schedule for the day. The day-of coordination is worth the money.

the whole planning process go smoothly and made the whole experience go smoothly. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

yond, handling any issues that came up without hesitation. We are so grateful for her efforts during the pandemic. She kept up with every single covid-19 update and was quick to communicate with us. She is very personable and helped calm our anxieties leading up to the wedding. She also helped us out when vendors or venue owners were difficult to work with. There is no price you can put on the type of support we received. Please do yourselves a favor and book MPB and hopefully you’ll have the chance to work with Katelyn.

media to keep us updated on regulations and alternative routes to making a COVID wedding happen. We live in another state, so YPB was the perfect choice for making our destination wedding dreams come true. Now let’s get to the best part…our lead planner Emily was BEYOND AMAZING. She is very knowledgeable, an excellent communicator, and just great at what she does. She made us feel assured about our plans, had several meetings with us to make sure everything will go smoothly, and had great recommendations for vendors and decorations. Even though COVID restrictions had us worried 2 weeks before the wedding, Emily made us feel very calm and had plans B and C to accommodate. She went above and beyond on our wedding day to make sure everything was perfect, even executed our emergency rain plan beautifully. Emily’s energy and attitude was so refreshing to work with on the most important day of our lives. We cannot thank Emily enough for everything she did for us, before and during the wedding. We HIGHLY recommend Emily and the YBP team for all your wedding planning needs. We are so grateful!

on the date we moved it to, and that's when we were assigned Brittany. I cannot say enough good things about having Brittany as our coordinator. She is absolutely amazing at her job: super detail-oriented, organized, and she always made sure I was keeping up with deadlines and decisions. She offered advice when I needed it, and was a comforting ear when I was stressed planning a wedding amidst COVID. I started a new job less than a month before the wedding and she took it upon herself to contact vendors to tie up loose ends because she knew how busy I was. Our wedding day was no different! She saved our day multiple times over (sending people where they needed to be, corralling our vendor team and organizing setup/takedown, emerging with emergency boutonniere pins when the groom lost his magnet in the sand, running to the bride's room with stain remover!). A huge heartfelt, grateful thanks to Brittany - you are the ABSOLUTE best. Our wedding couldn't have been as beautiful and amazing as it was if not for you!!!!! <3

e constantly changing covid protocols, responding to my many emails and texts, handling any vendor issues, and so much more… Katelyn was amazing. Now that I’ve bragged about how awesome she was during the wedding planning process…. It’s time to talk about the day of and the round of applause she deserves. Katelyn and her team showed up, got to work, and made all of my Pinterest wedding dreams come true. She also fixed numerous bridesmaids dresses that managed to break throughout the day. THEN our wedding cake and desserts didn’t get delivered and she found a bakery and got us cupcakes and other desserts- all in a moments notice! While I’m sure many other things went wrong- I truly have no idea because she handled everything so perfectly!!! Katelyn, our wedding day was absolutely perfect because of all of your hard work and we are forever grateful to have had you as our wedding planner. We could not have had a better day or better experience working with you! I’ve said it a million times before and I’ll say it again- hiring a wedding planner was the best thing we did. Thank you to everyone at your perfect bridesmaid- you are all outstanding!!!

and were dealing with a lot of issues with our venue. YPB came on board and immediately went to work. Due to some date changes and conflicts we had to switch planners a couple times, but Kim finally became our lead and we are so grateful to have had her help. We faced obstacle after obstacle with planning this wedding and had continued issues with our venue, and Kim handled it with ease. Even while we were at the venue during the wedding weekend, our venue continued to cause problems and Kim and her team handled it without any of us knowing. The wedding went smoothly and was such a beautiful magical day I’ll never forget! Thank you Kim and YPB. I recommend them highly!

ecided to go forward with YPB and the benefits were endless. Katelyn helped us find an incredible DJ (one who didn't come up in any of my google searches but was an incredible price with loads of experience!!!), helped with last minute details that I hadn't thought of, made sure extra food was sent home with us at the end of the night (hello to not cooking for a week afterwards!!!), stayed on top of the ever changing COVID restrictions, and ultimately became a friend in the process. Kim, the owner, also reached out to me personally to see how it was going. Their commitment to detail and dedication to our day was incredible. I went into the wedding week so incredibly relaxed and assured that everything would go smoothly. Even though I know Katelyn had other weddings on her plate, it seemed like all she did was eat, sleep, and breathe our special day. If your initial reaction to getting a wedding planner is on the fence like mine was, take the plunge and work with YPB.

re the big day.

ther of the bride

became so terrible that our reception venue had to cancel ( at no fault to them). On our wedding day Katelyn and my bride coordinated to scramble a last minute reception venue with set up about 4 hours before guests arrived. Everything was as if it had been planned for months. The guests were none the wiser. I can not imagine the stress we would have endured on our wedding day without the YPB team.

here were many times I thought I don’t know how I could have done it with her. Not only did we have Covid to worry about but the day before and day of our wedding we had three venue changes because of wildfires. She thought of everything and made sure that we had the support needed to pull the day off. I’ve never seen anyone work so well and sweetly under pressure, and I’m so thankful for her!

the experience. But YPB faced the challenge head on, and succeeded my expectations overall! I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done without them. Between the guest count restrictions, social distancing monitors and every brides worst nightmare... a venue change 12 days before the wedding! They handled it extremely professionally, ensured me and my family weren’t inconvenienced what so ever, and truly made it seem like a walk in the park. I couldn’t thank them enough and there is no amount of words that can express my gratitude. I am forever grateful to have partnered with Your Perfect Bridesmaid and I can promise you will not be disappointed if choose to do so as well.

imeline went so smoothly! Having Erika and the YPB team there made me feel at ease and comfortable throughout the day. Even during the planning stages of our wedding, Erika and Kim were very responsive and providing ideas and recommendations. We weren’t able to have a formal reception due to COVID restrictions so instead we rented an AirBnB to have dinner and the way the YPB team set it up was just perfect with such attention to detail. I highly recommend them!

he was available, print, kind, helpful, PERFECT! I am a controlling person when it comes to events and I kicked back and relaxed all day because I knew she would handle everything & boy did she. Everything was exactly as I hoped for. We couldn’t have a DJ, due to covid (WA rules) & she stepped up to make sure the correct songs were playing for the important moments and did all the announcements. I would recommend their team to anyone! If you are lucky enough, ask for Ashley :)

o help covert our wedding plans to an elopement made our wedding day absolutely perfect despite the circumstances. If you want a wedding planner or day of coordinator that makes truly is there throughout and makes you feel at ease then this is the team for you!

e pandemic. She was always available when I needed her and provide great feedback and advice. We couldn't have done it without her. Thank you YPB for everything you do!

r coordinator Kim, I instantly felt at ease and knew everything was going to be perfect (and it was!). She not only made our dream wedding happen, she made sure we enjoyed ourselves every step of the way. The YPB team really cares about their clients and wants to give them the best experience possible, and as stress free as possible. It genuinely felt like having a best friend with us every step of the way. I love Kim and the YPB team, and will be forever grateful for everything they did for us. 11/10 would recommend.

loral, photography, DJ, seating chart, etc - but a must on that list is a wedding planner. Throughout the entire year of planning Katelyn was always a text or email away to ease any worries away. She was calm, understanding, and knows the business so well that it made such a foreign process to me actually fun. My wedding was in the middle of December - meaning it was the end of a crazy busy season for Katelyn, and right in the middle of the holidays. She did not waiver once. To give context, my wedding party consisted of 10 people on each side and we had a total of 155 guests. My husband and I are both known to have fun and this wedding was not an exception. It was a party, which for most started far before the ceremony. The chaos turned up real quick, but instead of me having to stress about anything Katelyn stepped in and got everything under control. At one point I went to the back room to touch up my makeup and the poor girl was sitting back there with her assistant Sam and both were sweating bullets while trying to rehydrate to get back into the crazy. They were relentless and so incredibly hard working. I was truly on cloud nine. I made it my mission to be able to say hi to each guest that came in and dance with everyone, she made it her mission to always keep my wine glass full, make sure I ate, make sure I never heard of any of the drama, and make sure the timeline stuck on track. She is a God send. In summary, no matter what your budget is, make sure you delegate some of it for a wedding planner from Your Perfect Bridesmaid. You will not regret it.

were even having difficulty finding time to do any wedding planning due to our hectic work and life schedules. Enter Your Perfect Brides Maids. They stepped right up after our first consultation. Our wedding coordinator Nicole and her team contacted our vendors, walked through our venue with us, and provided a wedding day timeline. She kept my wife and I updated and informed of any changes. They relieved so much stress during the planning stages. The day of the wedding, Nicole and her team were fantastic. They made sure our wedding was perfect, and it truly was. Thank-you Nicole, you were amazing. My wife and I highly recommend Your Perfect Brides Maids.

eader, of Your Perfect Bridesmaid, was key to their success! Working on short notice, Rachael kept everyone on schedule and organized through her guidance and expertise. Her knowledge helped make decisions easy, find perfect vendors, and alleviate the usual stress, even on a tight time constraint. Her help prior to and at the wedding was insurmountable! Thank you Rachael and thank you YPB.

reception at different venues and she expertly handled the logistics of decoration and clean-up at both locations. She stuck with us until the very end of the night helping load gifts and decorations into our vehicle (when we were both exahausted). We can't say enough about how much she helped us with every last detail including budget and vendor recommendations.

he bride nor groom lived in Oregon; Katelyn would always manage to find time for a call or video chat to review various details. She consistently provided excellent suggestions for the many facets of a wedding - venue, catering, photography, videography, florist, invitations, DJ, and transportation, to name a few. Katelyn was readily available to answer our questions and was a really great advocate when dealing with vendors on our behalf. She checked in with us regularly to review progress and timelines. In addition, she and her team went above and beyond in preparing gift bags for all of our guests. We were thrilled with how the day went and our guests were very pleased as well. Katelyn and YPB played a crucial role in making our wedding and reception go so well. If you are looking for a wedding planner for your Oregon wedding, I strongly encourage you to consider Katelyn and YPB.

ed being built, and she helped me rearrange everything day of due to rain! We did all of our meetings over the phone and with Skype, and she willingly met with my parents in person at the venue. I didn't have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day, and everything fell into place perfectly. She even ran up to our room to grab my vows that were in there before the ceremony. Finally she swiftly banished some wedding crashers that wandered into our reception. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. SO worth the money.

it! Ashley was a perfect fit and went above and beyond the call of duty for us. Thank you is not enough, but it is true. Thank you so much!!!

helpful. She provided us with a variety of vendor ideas and gave us honest opinions regarding those vendors. We would never have found those vendors without her help. She gave us guidance on how to reach out and what questions we should ask those vendors. She also was in contact with our vendors behind the scenes to work out any kinks with them. Ashley was responsive to our emails and was great about answering any of our hundreds of questions. When our wedding day arrived, we were so calm knowing that Ashley was helping us! We had one major vendor issue during the wedding – our shuttle bus didn’t show up, so some of our guests were late and we had to start the wedding a bit late. Ashley was great about making sure my husband and I were calm and I knew she could take care of it. At the end of the night, Ashley and Rachel went above and beyond our expectations. They personally drove some of our guests home since we didn’t have a shuttle bus (and our venue had no cell reception). She even had one of her friends who had a small shuttle take some of our guest’s home. They stayed much later than they were planning on and they still acted so kind and professional to everyone. We couldn’t believe how amazing they handled it. Seriously, Your Perfect Bridesmaid is the best!

before, but THIS TIME I got to be the bride! Our wedding was logistically challenging, far away, and at a brand new venue, but YPB helped with every step of the process and kept my now-husband and I sane through everything. I ended up recommending them to my little sister AND my bff who got married a month later too. I will sing YBP praises til the end of time because they are such kind-hearted people with amazing talents. They are SO dedicated and work SO hard behind the scenes to make everything go flawlessly. I could not have imagined our wedding any different and it was literally better than I could have ever imagined, and hands-down the happiest day of my life. I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend these talented, amazing humans. They will help you when you need it most and make your wedding exactly what you want (or better!!).

"vision" and then doing her best to incorporate that. The day of the wedding was very smooth, and in large part it was because we didn't have to worry about those details (thanks to Kim and her team). I would highly recommend YPB!

details. As soon as we hired Kim and her team they went to work for us. Our lead coordinator Nicole was the best! Any time I had a question or needed a referral she was on it and advocating for us with every vendor and or service we contracted. When we could not find a baker Kim personally called someone who was "booked" for six weddings on our wedding weekend and suddenly they were available! We didn't have a florist and Nicole referred me to the best florist I could have ever hoped or dreamed we could hire! Because of Nicole we were able to actually enjoy our wedding day and everything was taken care of and went smoothly. I feel they really listened to what our vision was for our wedding day and they made it happen. The day was perfect, the reception venue looked just like I envisioned. Nicole and Tammy were so kind and conscientious during our day and because of their hard work it really was "our day" without any of the worries of details or distractions. I would hire them again and recommend Kim and her team to anyone getting married.

very receptive to questions and provided information we would have never thought of on our own. I was an anxious bride and was relieved to have Erika's support throughout the wedding. YPB's vendor recommendations were all great. Our wedding went better than we could have ever imagined! I highly recommend them.

e needed help with. They were an amazing source for vendor recommendations, which all turned out to be just as great as YPB. Erika, our lead planner, was an absolute pleasure to work with and made the wedding planning process so much smoother. Her experience and knowledge in the wedding field was unmatched and having her point of view was a must when coordinating with our venue and vendors. Leading up to our wedding day, Erika handled all the vendor communication regarding timeline and last-minute details, taking stress away from us and giving us the time to enjoy the excitement. Our day-of went perfectly thanks to Erika! She and her team handled everything, allowing us and our families to get to enjoy the celebrations without anyone having to worry or stress about any of the details. Erika totally made our vision come to life even better than we expected. After the ceremony she took care of all clean up and made sure all decorations & gifts were returned back to our hotel room. Cannot thank her enough for all she did and how happy we were with how everything turned out. Highly, highly recommend booking YPB & team. You won’t regret it, they are seriously the best in the biz and joy to work with. I wish we could get married again so we can work with them again 😊

ot the easiest to engage in wedding planning but he actually said this was the best investment, and felt Katelyn always went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect from months, to weeks, to hours, to minutes before the wedding. They truly have the best contacts, ideas, and suggestions. You can be honest when things are getting too expensive, or the vibe isn't fitting your idea. They remember things you said from your FIRST meeting. This day could have not been any more perfect, and they truly are YOUR PERFECT wedding planners. Worth every dollar.. Thanks again for such a magical day!

ne insisted a planner would not only make the planning go more smoothly, but also ensure I was able to enjoy my wedding day so much more. As a professional corporate event planner, I was prepared to take on all wedding planner duties myself. I love the planning process and generally know what to expect as far as timelines, vendor agreements, costs and day-of activities. However, as the wedding day drew closer, the logic behind my friends' advice became more and more clear. While I had most of the details securely in order, I was still lacking a point person to make sure everything was executed according to plan. I needed a day-of manager who would take on all the responsibilities and attention to detail I knew I would not be physically capable of handling the day of the ceremony and reception. That's where Your Perfect Bridesmaid came in. I reached out to the team at YPB about three weeks before our big day. Their owner Kim and I chatted about what I had already accomplished, what my vision was and where I was feeling the most anxiety. We agreed that their "Sanity Saver" package was right for us, and everything quickly took off from there! I was immediately connected with my planner, Ashley, and from that day forward, Ashley and I didn't go a single day without connecting. Taking what I had already put together, she compiled a detailed "run of show" plan. She asked all the right questions, added to what I had in the works, and pointed out many details I had not even considered. She was in contact with all of my vendors to ensure everyone was up-to-speed and always made time to check in with me to make sure I was feeling okay and enjoying this special time in my life. I cannot express how relieved I was before and especially the day of the wedding to have Ashley on my side. She works with confidence in her abilities, and does it all with a smile on her face. All of my details were put into play thanks to her, and the day was absolutely beautiful! Most importantly, my now-husband and I were able to actually enjoy our wedding because of her! From start to finish, YPB was there for me and my husband. We are still talking about how grateful we are that we made the last-minute decision to hire a day-of planner/manager. Of all the money we spent on our wedding, hiring Ashley through YPB was by far one of the costs we have no regrets about. Trust me - a planner/manager is worth every penny! I am so relieved I took my friends' advice, and I will continue to spread that advice to my future bride friends. If you're looking for any level of wedding planning/management support, I cannot recommend YPB enough!

ays before the wedding). Ashley and Nicole took the time to really understand us and what we were looking for in terms of the overall feel for the day, design factors, and specific vendors. They advocated for us with trouble vendors and made sure everything ran smoothly day of. We are forever grateful to Ashley, Nicole, and Kim for making our big day so special. I'd recommend them to anyone who really wants a team that cares and wants the best value for wedding planners.

there with answers and solutions. She is professional, fun, committed and you can tell she truly loves what she does and treats you that way. She also keeps extremely good relationships with other vendors and and can help make great recommendations and suggestions to help make your day into exactly what you’re looking for- and was so flexible with any changes! She’s there for YOU. She made our wedding day completely seamless for myself (and my mom!) and we didn’t have to worry about one thing besides having the best time. I’d hire Ashley 10 times over, again and again. We can’t thank you enough! ❤️

d her assistant Tammy. If you are on the fence about hiring a coordinator or wedding planner I urge you to do so. I was able to enjoy my day as a bride because I knew that Katelyn and her team had everything covered. If something went wrong, I have no knowledge of it. As a bride, you put in lots of planning and stress you really owe it to yourself to be able to enjoy this memorable experience. Katelyn was a recourse and advocate for me through the whole process. She is knowledgeable about the industry and about weddings in general. You may think that you can save money by doing certain things, but YPB really knows how to help you plan for things you don’t expect which helps you to achieve the wedding you want that sticks to your budget. I spoke with several different planners and coordinators and was disappointed that like many areas in the wedding business, I was being ripped off. This was not the case with YPB. They are personable, professional, kind, honest, humble and above all truly passionate about their work. I am sad to no longer be working with them, but so thankful they helped bring me my happily ever after. I highly recommend YPB. It was the greatest investment in my event and I had an unforgettable wedding thanks to their hard work and help. This should absolutely be your first stop in wedding planning. They are worth it and so are you.

ling to help with anything the year leading up to my wedding. My meetings with her were organized and efficient and her “little pink book” vendor recommendations were great! My wedding vision became reality when she decorated my venue. She took care of everything the day of so I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Kim and her wonderful assistant cleaned and packed up everything after the reception and even dropped off the decor to my room before I arrived so that no one had to worry about it that evening! My experience with “Your Perfect Bridesmaid” was amazing!

ily situation that she couldn't help with. Planning a wedding from across the country was no joke, but Katelyn was there every step of the way and advocating on our behalf. I really did believe that she had our best interest at heart the whole time. YPB has great resources, vendor connections, and an excellent team. If you're thinking of hiring a planner, YPB is the way to go. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you, Katelyn and YPB! We couldn't have done this without you. <3

ed, friendly, and kept the show going. She communicated well with all the vendors, and pieced things together when needed. Her presence was seriously everything and just knowing I could depend on her helped alleviate so much stress. Thank you YPB :)

planner and she was great! We planned our whole wedding from another state so we had a few calls with Erika and also came up to do the venue walk through with her. She was always very professional, organized and calm. Especially on the big day! We felt so good having Erika on our team, she really helped to bring our vision to life. Thank you Erika for making our day the absolute best it could be!

iful diy decor until the morning of the wedding. This would mean waking up at 4 am to set up, on my wedding day... this though was stressing me out so badly I decided to move some funds and budget for a day of coordinator. After researching some, I found YPB and reached out to Kimberly. She got back to me quickly and after our talk I decided to hire them. It took about a week for my assigned YPB member to reach out, but once she did they were 100% supportive and immensely helpful. Katelyn was my coordinator and she was very on top of things from our first meeting. She had some great ideas to help finalize my schedule for the day of, and really closed some gaps in my timeline. She was always available for meetings or via text to answer and questions. She also helped me a ton with a vendor issue. I hired the Dosha bridal elite team early on in my planning. They require full payment up front so I had already paid. My trial rolled around and I took about a week to realize I didn’t like my makeup at all. I was 4 weeks out at this point. I tried contacting the dosha manager and heard nothing. A week passed and I kind of had a freak out moment with Katelyn about it, and the next thing I know, I have a new make up artist and trial a week and a half before the wedding. Katelyn had been reaching out to other artists, and calling everyone at Dosha to get this resolved for me. All the while telling me not to stress, it will be great. She was so amazing in this and all her help! For the day of, I had both Katelyn and Ashley. They both made my wedding and rehearsal go off without a hitch and made sure everything was as perfect as I had envisioned. If you’re on the fence about a coordinator Do it! This was the absolute best decision I made for my wedding. They really go above and beyond no matter where you are in your process. Thank you so much Katelyn and Ashley!!!!!

cerns heard by the owner of the company, who quickly took over the coordinating effort of our wedding. While we had some few "blips", they were not YPB's fault. We appreciated the support.

ad most of my meetings with YPB by FaceTime/Skype; they were consummate professionals despite the distance. By the time we arrived in Portland for the wedding weekend, everything felt like it had fallen into place. They were reachable, responsive, and clearly had a ton of experience with local vendors and providing great recommendations. I would recommend YPB in a heartbeat!

. Everyone in our bridal party and our family talked about how helpful Katelyn and Adam were on our wedding day. Katelyn answered every email, text and phone call (and I made many) with supportive answers and kind words. I couldn’t have done it without YPB. THANK YOU does not begin to cover it!!

nd the scenes. From helping us select vendors and review contacts, assisting us with designing the elements of the day, to managing every detail throughout the wedding, Your Perfect Bridesmaid worked with us for nearly a year to help make our vision a reality. We came to this with absolutely no experience with weddings, not even helping out with a friend's or family member's, and having done very little research. Ashley helped explain every element of the process, what to do, and the timeline. Throughout, Ashley was always willing to answer questions by email and phone, in addition to our planning meetings. She helped managed demanding vendors and quirky wedding guests. Ashley made sure we could focus on spending time with our visiting friends and family and on enjoying the day. When we first started searching for a wedding planner, I was on the fence, questioning whether it wouldn't be better to handle things ourselves and save the money. Looking back on it now, I could not imagine having done it any other way. I'm so grateful we found Your Perfect Bridesmaid. They have such a depth of expertise and provide such extensive services. Ashley was a perfect match for us, her friendly can-do attitude helping us feel relaxed and comfortable throughout. They are a fantastic find and well worth it!

t weddings jumbled into one. They were able to help me sort through my board and come up with the ideal theme and vision for the wedding of my dreams! Their countless hours, blood, sweat and tears to make our dream wedding come true was invaluable. Katelyn my wedding coordinator always took time to hear me out and listen to any stress or worry I may have had. We were still fairly new to Portland, and we had moved from Upstate New York the prior year. We knew though we wanted to have a local wedding to show our family and friends all of Oregon's charm! My mother never planned to be 3,000 miles away as I planned this, but Katelyn and Kim were awesome and always made time for phone meetings with myself and mother. This wedding definitely would not have happened without these ladies! By the time our wedding weekend came it was in more stunning and beautiful than I imagined. I know it would never had been like that if it was not for their professionalism, knowledge and close attention to detail. After, this whole experience they have become more like family. I was truly sad when I realized the planning was over, because I enjoyed working with them. Hands down the best wedding planning team in the state of Oregon!

enue from over a dozen choices (the local knowledge was invaluable), to Erika’s check in meetings, and the team effort for Day of, these ladies were worth every penny. We did engage them very early in the process and for the first few months of very light to no contact I was a bit unsure that we’d made the right decision but once I reached out to Erika to clarify, she was able to lay out next steps in a way that my Type-A brain was able to process and things went amazingly from there. She always sent out a list of topics to cover before our meetings and was invaluable with respect to coordination with our vendors. The Day of service alone made the very reasonable cost completely worth it as well; it was great to be able to enjoy our time with friends and family on our big day and know that everything was being taken care of behind the scenes. We couldn’t recommend this service, and this team, any higher.

elicious food !!! She was amazing !! Highly recommend your perfect bridesmaid especially Ashley!!! If your not sure if you need a wedding planner I highly suggest it, she took so much of the stress of wedding planning off!!!

get-go I had so much help with the whole process and wonderful suggestions for vendors that ultimately led to an absolutely flawless wedding. Erika made our wedding day perfect. She wouldn't let me worry about any details, allowing me to have fun and enjoy the whole day. She took care of everything and the day went off without a hitch. The team really took our vision and helped us build the perfect day. Couldn't have gone better thanks to Erika. Kim and her team of ladies will take excellent care of you through the entire process. I promise.

ty to calm nerves even when giving us bad news about some little hurdle that needed to be overcome. Can't thank them enough and recommend them to future lucky couples :)

n many ways. Brittany was amazing to work with and we couldn’t have had the dream wedding without her! She knew good resources, had ideas of where to look for things, personable, accessible, skilled, organized, and not afraid to be assertive! Kim the owner is great too. Would recommend Brittany and YPB in a heartbeat and would use them again if we had to do over!!!

owe so much of that to Your Perfect Bridesmaid. They helped us find AMAZING vendors, got us discounts, helped plan every detail, listened to everything we wanted, and then made it all happen flawlessly. I would highly recommend them to anyone, they allowed us to enjoy our special day without having to worry about anything. Thank you so much YPB, and thank you Ashley, you are all incredible!!!

l. All the little details came together better than I could have ever imagined thanks to YPB and their guidance, knowledge of vendors, and overall experience. I couldn’t have done it on my own! Brittany was so calm, together, aware, energetic, and HAPPY to be at our wedding doing her thing. I felt so at ease and taken care of, that no matter what happened that day that was unplanned, it would be calmly taken care of (in the best way). She went above and beyond. Very professional yet made me feel like a friend rather than a client.

service, no full bathrooms, and a multi-day event with virtually all of our guests on site!). YPB, with Ashley as my lead, made it happen. Ashley listened to our wedding vision and really understood what we were going for - she believed in it, which helped grow my confidence that we could do it exactly how we wanted it to be. Our wedding had a few traditional elements, but a lot of non-traditional elements - so having a planner that believed in our vision mattered even more. I was planning our wedding from across the country, so Ashley helped with frequent calls and vendor advice. Her work with the timeline and vendor management was invaluable. She also helped with a complicated wedding day, with temperamental weather - a rainy reception, but NOT a rainy ceremony :). She helped reorganize our reception set up to accommodate the weather and to keep our guests warm. She served as a fearless ringleader, guiding guests through the many activities and meals. She checked in with me the perfect amount throughout the day, and made sure I had everything I needed. I also heard from many guests how much they enjoyed their interactions with her. I could trust that I could be completely hands off the day of - which I might have thought to be an impossible task as type A, micro-managey personality. We are forever grateful for Ashley's help in making our weekend absolutely perfect.

e they needed to be and truly helped us to envision what our wedding day was going to look like - and thanks to Melissa and Alex, it was even better than I imagined. I am SO glad that my family did not have to do all of this work so that they could really enjoy our wedding. Thank you YPB! Highly recommend.

to work with. It gave me such a peace of mind to know that I had experienced and professional planners on my team as we budgeted, hired vendors, worked on a timeline, etc. They even helped us save money here and there with their vendor discounts and great ideas! I don't even want to imagine planning a wedding without Brittany - she really helped us figure out our vision and then she made it a reality! I will seriously never forget the moment when I saw our venue for the first time on the wedding day, my jaw literally dropped because it was so beautiful. Brittany also made sure that I was able to actually enjoy the big day by being so on top of every detail. Thank you Brittany and Kim for everything! We couldn't have done it without you!

es you realistic expectations and fantastic advice. She always got back to me whenever I called or texted her, and was always prepared to answer our questions big or small. She is even so AMAZING- that after our rehearsal I accidentally left all my belongings with everything I needed to get ready for our rehearsal dinner at the rehearsal location, turned around to look for it for us, and then even dropped it off at the rehearsal dinner location so I could quickly get ready in the car!!! Also, the grooms button fell of his suit minutes before the ceremony started and Kim sewed the bun back on! Words can not express how glad I am that we choose Kim and her team! She made having a destination wedding (from another state!) and from a unknown location that almost every vendor didn’t know of- such a stress free process! That YPB team is heaven sent! Thank you Kim and Your Perfect Bridesmaids Team for everything you do, and for making our day just as we pictured it! Rain and all!

stances we needed to switch reception venues last minute. After smoothly and graciously navigating the very tense and difficult situation between all the parties involved, YPB helped us to REPLAN our entire wedding in 1 MONTH. They took an outdated, poorly lit, and unfortunate looking cafeteria/church hall and turned it into an elegant, glowing, ballroom. THEY ARE MAGIC! These ladies will hustle like no other, be your advocate when dealing with difficult vendors or family, and ultimately give you peace of mind on your wedding day knowing that they have your back. Hire them before you hire any of your other vendors! We bought the full-service package and I promise it will be some of the best money you ever spent. Thank you, Kim, Ashley, & the YPB team!

surrounding areas have so many wedding planners and it was difficult to find a planner that fit into our budget yet someone who we knew we could trust. YPB checked both boxes. From the first conversation, they were super down to earth and easy/comfortable to talk to. I worked with Katelyn and she was a godsend. I sent her my pinterest board, we discussed my vision for the wedding, and from there Katelyn gave me recommendations for vendors who would fit the style of wedding I was envisioning. Katelyn was so resourceful and whenever I had a question, she was quick to respond via text, phone, or email. I’m the type of person who thinks about all the little details and Katelyn was super receptive to all of my suggestions. Our wedding was a little uncoventional and Katelyn was on board with/supported every idea and she helped us figure out how to carry out those ideas. Whenever I felt a little anxious about the wedding, I would remind myself not to worry due to the confidence and trust I had in Katelyn. On the day of the wedding, Katelyn and her assistants (Kelly & Laura) went above and beyond to make sure my wedding went smoothly. Our ceremony and reception were in 2 different locations which made the logistics a little more challenging, but it went smoother than I could have imagined. I didn’t have to worry about anything except for getting married on the day of and our wedding day was everything I dreamed of and more. To sum it up, if you are looking for a reliable, budget friendly, trustworthy, down to earth, and easy going wedding planner, YPB is the way to go!

yn hands down made my wedding planning stress free, she handled everything ! She is quick to respond to any emails with questions and she will definitely be a good friend from now on.

and Indian traditions, which included hiring 2 caters, staging a baraat for the groom and a Bollywood flashmob for the bride, making two different families happy, etc. In addition, our venue came with nothing, so we had to rent everything (tables, silverware, barware, wait staff - everything!). Aurelia understood our vision and stayed calm, organized and excited throughout the whole process. She kept telling us that she could not wait to see it all unfold, which made it feel like she was personally invested and it wasn't just another day of work on a Saturday for her. The day of our wedding was the most magical day of our entire lives. Every single detail we had talked about was even better than I could have ever imagined. She made my wedding vision come to life, and it was absolute perfection! I seriously don't know what we would have done without having a partial planner and someone to help execute the day of - it would have been a chaotic mess. Aurelia is a star! We could not be happier! If you are thinking about doing it all yourself - it's SOOO much work - hiring a planner, even just for the day of was absolutely worth it. Ask for Aurelia :)

communication was good. On the day of the event, she handled all the details and vendors flawlessly. Took (almost) all the stress out of the event. We very highly recommend Your Perfect Bridesmaid.
