Company Description

I have always loved bringing people together to celebrate and make life long memories. After college, I got into corporate event planning and made the transition into wedding planning about 5 years later. I made the transition because I wanted to take my love for events and put it to use serving people, and making their life better in some way.

I started Your Perfect Bridesmaid in 2008, smack in the middle of the horrible recession. I was seeing couples struggle and I was seeing how stressful navigating the wedding planning process was on them. I just knew there had to be a better way to plan a wedding, so I launched YPB in hopes of helping couples by creating that "better way". Fast forward to today. I have spent the past 11 years pouring my heart and soul into our clients and their wedding day, and I am so thankful to still be here, doing what I love every day.

At YPB, we are driven by our beliefs. They are the backbone of our company and they guide us in how we do things. We feel it is these beliefs that stand us apart.

We believe every couple - regardless of budget - deserves the peace of mind that comes with having an experienced team of professionals by their side. We work hard to keep our services accessible to couples.
We believe the planning process, as well as the wedding day, should be fun and enjoyable. Our goal is that all of our couples feel relaxed and calm from “Yes!” to “I do!” knowing that they have an extraordinary team of planners and coordinators behind them every step of the way! Wedding planning doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it can (and should) be exciting and fun! Our goal is to give our clients an incredible planning experience and to make this entire process as enjoyable as possible.
We believe every wedding should be personalized and unforgetable.Our goal is to incorporate as much of your personality and personal style into your wedding day as possible so that your wedding feels like a beautiful representation of who you both are as a couple, rather than just a pretty “cookie-cutter” wedding.
We believe that having an amazing team is one of the keys to a successful event. We have spent the past decade developing close relationships with some of the best wedding vendors in the Portland area. With our "little pink book", we provide our clients a customized list of vendor recommendations based on their unique needs, style and budget.
We believe in transparency. We know wedding planning can be confusing enough that you don't want to any vagueness
We've got your back! We put a lot of heart and love into our clients' weddings. You become a member of our family and we fight very hard to deliver the absolute best for you. We wear many hats thru the wedding process. We are your cheerleader, your idea generator, your team captain, your etiquette adviser, family mediator, stationery proofreader, your nerve calmer, your sanity checker your go-to listener and re-assurer. We’ll support you and advocate for you as we guide you thru the entire planning process. We will also manage the wedding day from set up to tear down to ensure every detail is just as you envisioned!

Our wedding day simply doesn’t happen without YPB and the amazing help of Jen Revoltar. Her hard work, attention to detail, and master class of the wedding business left us immensely satisfied and in bliss.

Their efficient process, knowledge of the industry, and good people skills was immediately helpful in getting us through this process. The suite of resources and planning tools was a special kind of game charger.

We’ll be recommending this service to anyone we know getting married.

THANK YOU!!

-Nick and Lauren

YPB and Ashley were a dream to work with. I couldn’t have planned this wedding without Ashley! Everything about our experience with them was seamless and well organized. The YPB team was very responsive and getting us connected with our planner, but Ashley was the MVP of our wedding! She handled every part of the day with professionalism, care, and amazing attention to detail. I would recommend YPB to anyone, and have them request Ashley if possible! We were beyond impressed with the flawless execution our wedding day had.

We discovered YPB at an open house at the Victorian Belle in Portland and decided to utilize their services for our wedding. Samantha Wong @ YPB walked us through all the design, details, coordination, and so much more to be prepared for our wedding day. Thanks to her hard work and the other YPB staff, our wedding day was flawless. We highly recommend her and YPB - we were very happy with our choice to utilize their services. Thank you Sam and YPB!

Choosing to work with Your Perfect Bridesmaid was the first and one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. They provided us with tools and resources from the very beginning that helped us stay organized and made each step of the process less intimidating. We worked with Laura McDonough as our lead planner and could not have been happier with our experience. Our wedding day truly would not have been as amazing as it was without Laura. She was organized, communicative, empathetic, and truly understood our vision. Laura consistently went above and beyond making recommendations, making sure we were on track, and making the planning process as stress free as possible. By the end, I can truly say that Laura felt more like a friend than just our planner. Our wedding day came to life better than I ever could have imagined and ran seamlessly because of Laura’s expertise. Our guests raved not only about the design, but about the flow of the day. We would recommend using Your Perfect Bridesmaid to help plan your wedding and we would especially recommend Laura McDonough!

While there were a few hiccups leading up to our event, like a sudden change in our assigned coordinator a month prior, the end result was fantastic!

We were so happy with how smoothly the wedding went - even with a few last minute contingency plans due to rain. Nicolle kept everything running on schedule and clearly did a lot of work with our other vendors behind the scenes so that we were almost never thinking about the logistics day-of and could focus on fully enjoying time with our guests and all of the special, personal elements of an unforgettable day.

I cannot express enough how grateful we are for Sam from YPB and the incredible work she did as our day-of wedding planner and coordinator. From the start, she went above and beyond to ensure every detail was meticulously planned. Her organization, attention to detail, and calm demeanor made the entire process so much easier for us.

What truly sets Sam apart, though, is her warm and welcoming nature. Throughout the planning process, she didn’t just feel like a planner—she became a friend. Her genuine care for us, our wedding, and our vision made everything feel so personal. She was always there with a smile, ready to listen, offer guidance, and make us feel completely at ease.

On the wedding day, she was nothing short of amazing. She handled every detail seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy our day without any stress. From coordinating with vendors to making sure the timeline stayed on track, Sam ensured that everything ran smoothly. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing because we knew we were in the best hands.

Thanks to her, our wedding day was absolutely perfect. We will always be thankful for not just her hard work and dedication, but for the friendship we built along the way. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about making your day special and stress-free, I cannot recommend Samantha Wilson enough. She was a lifesaver, and we couldn’t have done it without her!
