retail at the time, my passion, focus
on customer service and data-driven
decisions fueled our early success. "
Huntington had a clear vision - to create a visually
captivating experience in a stale party market with
products that were fresh and very à la mode. But she
admits that when she opened her first shop, there wasn't
necessarily a clear model to follow apart from the big-box
retail stores.
" I became deeply focused on bringing my vision of a
modern party shop to life - obsessed with every detail,
from the table heights to the product placement and even
the precise rainbow color order on the shelves, " she said.
" It was all carefully crafted through trial and error. ... It
took immense patience and strategy to figure out how
customers truly wanted to shop for their celebrations. My
goal has always been to design a retail experience that meets
customers right at that moment of inspiration and need. "

Huntington describes the Bonjour Fête customer as one
who " embraces celebrating life's occasions with elegance,
is trend-savvy and values unique, premium products that
stand out. "
Bonjour Fête offers a robust online storefront in
addition to its Palisades in-store location. Huntington
said the team conducts extensive
research when curating its product
selection to maintain an assortment that is
both high-quality and affordable. It monitors customers'
purchasing behaviors and actively engages with them
in its physical retail location to understand any unmet
needs and preferences.
The company's tableware products embrace current
trends and have always been bestsellers.
" We have always been known for creating a highend
look with tabletop at an accessible price point, "
Huntington said.
A true artist at heart, Huntington's favorite items in
her store don't necessarily lie in a specific product or
category, but rather in design.
" I have a deep appreciation for classic designs. To me,
our cabana stripes serve as a neutral, and I enjoy layering
them with large blocks of vibrant colors, " she said. " I also
welcome bold patterns without hesitation. I find graphic,
visually striking designs to be far more captivating. "
And while classics always do well, retailers must also
be aware of the trends in retail. Luckily for Bonjour
Fête, those currently align perfectly with its femininechic
aesthetic.
" 2024 has been the year of the bow. Typically, trends
revolve around colors, such as pink for Halloween or
