Please say Hello to Destiny Sund and Paul Verano of The Confectional!  At The Confectional, they make individual-serving artisan cheesecakes in more than 12 flavors.  They started after a friend offered to pay Paul for one of his amazing cheesecakes, and have been serving Seattle since opening their first store in 2006!  This was their second time participating in Get Hitched, Give Hope -- they donated 400 Über Mini Raspberry White Chocolate cheesecakes for our big event in October.  We ate them all!! What do you love about your work? We love putting a smile on people’s faces with not only our fabulous dessert but also our joyful atmosphere.  

  What inspires you? Chocolate… um… lots of chocolate.  Chocolate inspired Paul’s famous Confectional quote: “Forgive me, chocolate, for I have sinned. I have not yet had my daily confection.”  

    What makes your business stand out? The Confectional is the only dessert store in Seattle that offers individual-serving cheesecakes in a large variety of flavors, no slices! So, a customer can come in and pick out a variety pack for parties, dinners, all types of events. We also offer Cheesecake Truffles: our cheesecake baked, rolled, and then dunked in rich dark chocolate. We are serious about our cheesecake products. We serve everything with a smile, and never ever judge a second helping of dessert!

    Decor was definitely a team effort!  Everything from draping to illuminated bars, huge birdcages to massive metal trees, plush gold chairs to crystal curtains were provided and installed by PJ Hummel & Company!!  Chairs and tables were provided by AA Party Rentals, and the luxurious linens came from Aria Style.  The metal trees from PJ Hummel were decorated with moss, feathers, crystals, and fresh flowers by July Floral Design and The Flower Suite.  July Floral Design also created the hanging GHGH logo of fresh flowers for our registration area!  The Flower Suite additionally provided the sweet floral centerpieces for cocktail tables in the live auction area.  Christopher Flowers created large arrangements for the buffets, and Lilies & Lemon Drops provided a beautiful centerpiece for our overflowing dessert table (pictured above.)

  Austin Beaver is an extraordinary DJ & MC.  He started in this business because he loves affecting people through music, and he's been doing that for most of his life.  We're thrilled to have him be a part of GHGH this year!   Austin, what do you love about your work? Taking a group of people that don’t know each other that well, then getting them to emotionally connect and celebrate like they were all family.   What drew you to Get Hitched, Give Hope? AWESOME CAUSE!!   How are you participating in GHGH? I’m new this year!  What I offer is an experience, I will be donating my skill to the event that night, but I have partnered with Canlis for my donation. Canlis restaurant and staff have a similar philosophy to how they handle their guests.   What inspires you? Creative people   What makes your business stand out? All those that hire me are looking for more than an average wedding. They want their guests to be part of something unforgettable.   If you could pass on your advice to an engaged couple, what three tips would you give? 1. Don’t forget what is important, get the ring on the finger and celebrate…everything else is a detail. 2. Don’t do typical. That’s forgettable. 3. Itemize your vendors by order of importance to you, start your vendor search with the most important first, working your way down. Allocate budget the same.   Anything else you’d like to share with the world? If you're looking for some one to just play music and make a few announcements, I am definetly overkill.  If you would like a wedding that your friends and family have never seen before, and will never be repeated again, we just might be a good fit for each other!   How can we stay in touch?

  A big part of what we love about our annual auction and soiree is dressing up.  Not just ourselves but the fabulous ballroom at the Four Seasons as well!  This year we have the incredible resources and talents of PJ Hummel & Company to help us create a gorgeous and fun atmosphere for you to enjoy and to inspire us all to remember why we are there: to fulfill dreams!!   PJ Hummel & Company Inc, is an award-winning event design, décor, and production company, a one-stop shop for event design needs, creating impressive special events for private and corporate clients since 1995.  PJ began her first visual merchandising business in 1976 at the age of 19. She started collecting props and décor to meet the needs of her clientele. That collection has greatly expanded and is now housed in a 15,000 square foot warehouse!

PJ, what do you love about your work? The power of the big “wow.”  It is the expression on my guests’ faces, the wow and the wonder, which gives me huge satisfaction that what I do makes a difference.  PJ Hummel & Company creates award-winning events and things of beauty every single day.  Our events give guests a once-in-a-lifetime experience.   What drew you to Get Hitched, Give Hope? It was a genius idea in a beautiful place & for a great cause. The organizers have gathered a top-notch team that will come together and create something of significance.

 

How are you participating in GHGH this year? This is our first year, and we are the main décor sponsor for the auction soiree.  Our company specializes in large scale décor, and we’re excited to use some of our brand-new inventory, such as our oversized 5’ tall birdcages with crystal chandeliers inside.   What inspires you? Our clients!  Every project is different and unique.  One of our brides wanted a traditional Hindu wedding, but her mother wanted a garden theme.  We married the two ideas together and created a Secret Garden theme that ran throughout the entire wedding.

 

What makes your business stand out?  What sets PJ Hummel & Company apart from other vendors in our field is our longevity, expertise, and experience.  We have had many opportunities to work on some really big projects in some very unusual locations.  We are a hybrid of designer and supplier, and have a strong passion for new ideas.  We call ourselves “the ultimate event resource” because we do it all.  We own our own inventory of soft seating, 20’ high drapes, centerpieces, and decorative galore.   If you could pass on your advice to an engaged couple, what three tips would you give? Establish a budget early, and share it with your designers.  We always ask our clients for a budget range and what they want that budget to include. If you’re trying to save costs, pick a venue with good bones.  Then it’s just a matter of adding personal details.  Collect visuals of what you like.  Things like color schemes, floral, & table settings, whatever helps build your vision. We have a design studio fill of samples and deign books to spark our client’s imaginations!

 

Anything else you’d like to share with the world? When we say we’re award-winning designers, we mean it!
