Portland, OR, USA < change city >

Band:

Swing Set

"This band was AMAZING. We are so glad we not only made the choice to go with a live band over a DJ, but go with Swing Set. They're based out of Seattle, but they're worth it. All of our guests commented on Swing Set, and said they really made the reception. They played light music during dinner, played lots of dance-able songs afterward, and even learned our first dance song just for us - if you hadn't known, you would have thought they knew the song for years. They were also extremely easy to work with."

Cakes/Candies Vendor:

Cupcake Jones

"Cupcake Jones was great. They have such interesting flavors, and their cupcakes are so beautiful. They brought tiers and set them up to look like a cake, with trim in our wedding colors, all included in the cost. They were very easy to work with, highly recommended!"

Florist:

Posy Petals

"I couldn't recommend Posy Petals any more highly. She was an absolute joy to work with. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful, but she had the lowest price I could find by far. I live in Seattle so all of our correspondence was by email, but she still did an amazing job capturing all of my ideas."

Photographer:

EA Studios

"Elisha and Andy were so easy to work with. They're such professionals and have an amazing eye. Given the quality of their work, their prices are quite reasonable. They're extremely friendly and fun, and they blended into the crowd at the reception so I didn't feel like I was being photographed the whole night."

Wedding Fashion Vendor:

Anna's Bridal

"Anna's Bridal was great to work with. I bought my bridesmaids dresses there - if you buy 4 or more, you get a discount. I live up in Seattle, and had my wedding dress fitted up there, but when I tried it on 3 days before the wedding, I discovered the top wasn't fitting right anymore. I called them in a panic, she fit me in on Wednesday, I had my dress on Thursday and it fit perfectly. She was a lifesaver, and you couldn't tell the dress had been altered at all. She's out in Lake Oswego, but it's worth the drive."

Ceremony:

McMenamin's Grand Lodge

"McMenamins was a great place to have our wedding. They were extremely flexible and laid back, and let us be imaginative with our reception menu. They offer so many awesome venue options, and they're all extremely affordable."
