About Bloom Events Portland

Bloom Events Portland

Samantha I Owner & Lead Planner

At Bloom, we love weddings! The laughter, the happy tears, the magic of two people committing themselves to each other surrounded by their favorite humans. It’s such an honor to play a part in that! To us, weddings aren’t just events, they’re memories you’ll hold for a lifetime. That’s why we’re here to make sure your day feels effortless, joyful, and completely you. We get to know you - your style, values, and vision - then bring it to life with creativity, care, and attention to detail. From full planning to day-of coordination, we handle the details so you can relax, be present, and soak it all in. No stress, just love and good vibes.

We care about you as a person, not just as a client. With your wedding, the event itself matters, but you matter more. Our goal is to reduce your stress, give you back your time, and make the wedding planning process fun. Let us handle all of those pesky (and stressful) details. From vendor communication and timelines to all the moving pieces on event day, we make sure everything runs seamlessly, so you can focus on what really matters. In addition to our standard wedding packages, we offer Micro Wedding and Elopement packages, as well as Consultation services. Special pricing available for off-season and weekday/Sunday weddings.

In three words: Collaborative, Flexible, Positive

    Samantha is fantastic!

    My partner and I booked Samantha for our wedding after we saw her advertising at the Portland parks wedding registration day event. We wanted a cool, low-key, non-traditional wedding, and after talking with a few planners, it was clear that out of everyone, Samantha immediately understood the vibe we were shooting for. We booked partial planning and day-of coordination. To say that we wholeheartedly recommend Samantha is an understatement. She was such a joy to work with through the whole process. Coming into the process, our plan was to have our friends cater our big park wedding, at the Mt Tabor amphitheater. Basically a DIY giant park barbecue! That, obviously, means a lot of moving parts and ambiguities because none of our friends actually lived in Portland. I don't think we could have pulled it off without Samantha. In our first meeting, we told her our plans, and she immediately went into problem solving mode. She knew of community kitchens we could talk to, different vendors we could rent grills from, and knew from her years of experience, what other necessities we'd have to rent in order for our wedding to be a huge success. As we moved closer to the wedding, Samantha found us all our vendors, from sustainable florist to photos. She has a lot of connections to the wedding planning community in the region, and is sure to know someone if she herself can't do whatever you need. The week of the wedding, Samantha walked through the venue with us, shared her very detailed notes on everything, walked us through her coordination for the day, and was a generally very calming presence, including finding a last minute sound system after a rental fell through. Our fond memories of the day were only possible thanks to the thoughtful and professional work that Samantha put into making our wedding truly ours.

    Best Decision Ever!

    Working with Sam at Bloom Events Portland was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From our first conversation, she was warm and professional and always made sure every detail was covered. Sam took some of the stress out of planning and let us actually enjoy the lead-up to our big day, then executed everything flawlessly on the day itself. Her attention to detail was unmatched and she cared about our vision as much as we did. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful she was, and we didn't have a single worry the entire time because Sam had it all handled. Every penny we spent was worth it and we can't recommend her enough!

    Seamless, stress-free, and truly “us”

    Samantha was an absolutely incredible day-of wedding coordinator and played a huge role in making our non-traditional backyard wedding feel smooth, relaxed, and truly us. Starting from our first prep call months before the wedding, she gave us professional advice and recommendations to make the day run smoothly and how to turn our family's house/backyard into our wedding 'venue' (there are so many things we wouldn't have even thought of!). We especially appreciated how she helped us figure out what was truly critical and how to thoughtfully incorporate our more nontraditional ideas. On our wedding day, Samantha was always thinking 5 steps ahead, and when last-minute logistics questions popped up, she handled them calmly and confidently, allowing us & our family to stay fully present. We received many compliments from guests about how seamless everything felt, and that’s 100% thanks to Samantha. Hiring Samantha was one of the best decisions we made!

    Stress free wedding day!

    We are SO grateful we hired Samantha from Bloom Events as our planner! From day one, she made everything easy and genuinely enjoyable. She handled vendor communication, built us a super organized timeline, and even reminded us of little things we never would’ve thought of (like arranging transportation for grandparents and creating a backup rain plan that looked just as beautiful as Plan A!). On the wedding day, Samantha was incredible at setting up the décor exactly how we pictured it, keeping the wedding party on schedule, and fixing a last minute boutonniere issue before I even knew it happened. Because of her, we were able to relax and fully enjoy the day. If you want a planner who is friendly, detail oriented, and truly invested in making your wedding perfect, Samantha is the one. Couldn’t recommend more!
