Meet the Friends Behind the Spark

Life is short—we’re here to make it sweet.

We are Sada and Alex, the friends, dreamers, and candy-enthusiasts behind The Sweet Setup. Born from a shared passion for creativity and a lifelong love of a good celebration, we decided to turn our "someday" dream into a reality right here in the beautiful Portland, Oregon area.

Growing up, we were always the ones volunteering to decorate the party or find the perfect, most thoughtful treats for our friends. We realized that while everyone loves a beautiful celebration, not everyone loves the stress that comes with planning it. That’s where we come in!

Our Philosophy: Celebration Without the Stress

At The Sweet Setup, we believe that every milestone—from a "just because" Tuesday to a once-in-a-lifetime wedding—deserves a sweet spark. We’ve built our business on the belief that your only job at an event should be making memories and enjoying the sugar rush.

We bring the style; you bring the smile.

XOXO,

Sada & Alex

One woman is wearing a brown jumpsuit with a white shirt underneath, and the other is wearing a colorful skirt and orange top. The display features pink, purple, and metallic balloons, and a floral heart shape on top. There are buildings and trees in the background.

Trust, Treats, and Transparency

We believe in both quality service and community support. For your peace of mind, we're happy to provide proof of insurance coverage upon request. Plus, working with us helps local businesses—we take pride in locally sourcing our delicious candy and treats whenever possible!
