Corporate meetings/retreats, private parties, weddings and more!
Springtime in Seattle brings a fresh wave of inspiration and the perfect backdrop for memorable events. Recently, we partnered with Seattle Unity | Parkview Seattle to help showcase their versatility, bringing together event professionals to demonstrate a wide swath of events to demonstrate the possibilities of each unique floor. We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again. Parkview in downtown Seattle is a great space to host the event of your dreams – or at a minimum, the event you’ve been assigned if it’s more of a workplace meeting/retreat!
First Floor: Perfect for Intimate Gatherings
The first floor of Parkview provides a dynamic setting, ideal for small private events including board meetings or retreats, children’s parties, luncheons, and more intimate gatherings. Opulent Events masterfully crafted three designs to show their versatility including a Bridgerton inspired table-scape on the patio, a Wild Things safari inspired children’s party, and a Lemoncello inspired space for a small tea-like event. Each design brought a fresh flavor and affirmed possibility of space utilization in the best of ways! This design was further enhanced by collaborations with Nola’s Catering, Shugs Soda Fountain, Seattle Bartending and Linen Sensation’s fun AI Photo Booth. Together, they added unique and fun touches to the overall experience, helping you reimagine how a patio, board room or other small unsuspecting spaces can be transformed through their design.
Second Floor: Maximalist Wedding and Elopement Scene
Stepping onto the second floor, visitors were greeted by a bold, fun, maximalist wedding and/or elopement scene. Functions and Gatherings orchestrated a seamless blend of elegance, kitzch and extravagance with Tuxedo + Tennis Shoes Catering providing exquisite culinary + bar delights. Shady Vines Floral adorned the space with lush, vibrant arrangements, while Make a Scene Rentals brought some fun flair. Complimenting the overall design were other remarkable vendors including pet care To Wag and To Hold, fun + tasty vintage inspired cake of Phat Pastellos, the atmospheric lighting by Crimson Haze, and the video by Pixel Dust Videography with Diwas Photography capturing the set, setting + vibe of all three floors created by all of those listed in this blog. Bamboo Beats kept the energy high with their dynamic DJ sets, and Dress Up Box Photo Booth offered guests incredibly creative, fun, memorable snapshots from their custom cake photo booth, it was WILDLY fun.
Third Floor: Elegant Corporate and Non-Profit Dinners on a Rooftop Terrace
The third floor was transformed into a sophisticated setting, perfect for seated dinners: imagine a corporate, non-profit or even a wedding seated dinner. Bivins Event took the lead on design and floral arrangements and Analog Floral collaborated with plant rentals that increased the LUSH garden vibe on the rooftop terrace. Both aspects of floral and greenery brought the space to life, with complimentary table scapes, linens and wares that will meet you where you’re at. Madres Kitchen, utilizing the professional industrial kitchen on the third floor, provided delectable bites and beverages, ensuring that every palate was pleased, while Orion Entertainment DJs kept the ambiance chill and engaging.
Throughout the event, Rentals from Make a Scene Rentals, CORT + Vintage Ambiance ensured that each floor was perfectly equipped, beautifully styled. While Crimson Haze ensured that each floor had accent lights that fully set the scene.
Seattle Unity | Parkview Seattle truly demonstrated their ability to host a variety of events with style and grace, making it a prime choice for any occasion. Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, this venue offers the perfect setting to bring your vision to life.
