VENDOR TYPE: Venue

NAME: Melissa ‘Missy’ Maki

COMPANY: Sentinel Hotel

We like working with Melissa and her team because:
Sentinel Hotel is a great venue partner for our nonprofits. Their ability to do so much in-house in combination with their affordable pricing makes them a great location for events. The spaces available are easily turned into beautiful fundraisers.

What do you do?
Book and assist in coordination of all nonprofit and association events.

Why do you work with nonprofit events?
Relationships and helping raise money and awareness. These events are personally rewarding and rewarding for our company. The relationships I have made in this section of catering are ones that I will have for a lifetime. I love to make the leap from ‘contracting’ to ‘being on your team.’

What inspires you about a good event?
I learn from every client. What works, what doesn’t and I love being able to share these details with clients. We get better every event, and that means YOU will have a better event every time you return.

What is your favorite moment at an event?
Guest arrival. The smiles as they walk through the doors, dressed up, and in anticipation of a wonderful event. The next will always be finding out that you have hit your financial goals!

What brings you the most joy in your work?
Relationships! In the end, trust is everything. Earning your trust, and knowing that you are feeling comforted in my experience and desire for your event to be a huge success!
