Jill Zarin’s Southampton Luncheon Was A Complete Blast!

This past Saturday, July 20th, Mend Skincare presented Jill Zarin’s Luxury Luncheon by Laifen and Ticket2events benefit the Bobby Zarin Memorial Trust.

The event produced by celebrity event planners, Sean Koski and Brian Kelly, as well as co-hosts’, featured an elegant event design by Ticket2Events that showcased Jill Zarin rugs and a collection of furniture made by Chita. Atlas Party Rental also provided lovely side touches for the event.

For lunch guests had their choice of fare from companies like Chef Ashley, a culinary goddess, who sampled her nutritious foods. I especially loved her beet salad with pistachio that I plan to try to recreate at home.  There was also a pizza bar by Americano Pizza Bar, who kindly made me a delicious vegan pizza, fresh lobster rolls on toasted buns from the Hamptons own, Lunch. Dessert was served all day using tech from Solato (a gelato machine) and a more traditional ice cream cart by Cream and Sugar.

 

All guests were given the celebrity treatment by Mend Skincare starting with consultations from Jen DiLandro of Dolce Aesthetics. Following their choice of hair accessories from Teleties, guests like Ramona Singer and LeeAnn Locken were seen getting perfect blow-outs using Laifen technology. (Laifen kindly gifted us with blowdryers which I will review in another post). Teresa Giudice was spotted receiving an express gel manicure touchup by Freshcoat.

 

 

Delores Cantina and other guests stayed hydrated with complimentary onsite IV Drips at the hydration station that also included LaCroix, Zen Wtr, and Boxed Water. The Cocktail Collection served guests signature cocktails and Rosé from Wolfer Wines. Guests could also sip on variety of canned Gin Cocktails by Dillons Small Batch Distillers.

Upon entry, guests were provided with totes from Quilted Koala and Dacosta Verde that allowed us to fill up on complimentary gifts from a beauty bar featuring: Branch Basics, Safely, SkinMedica, Coola, Truvani, Corckcicle, Colleen Roth Child, Beachwaver. In addition, there were gifting tables throughout the event that featured amazing products. To keep guests cool VIPs  including  Jennifer Ayidin, Julia Hart, and yours truly received an EmbrWave2 device. (It’s my new fave gadget to beat this NYC summer heat!)

 

 

The “Live A Good Life” section included Vida Life Sciences, who debuted an innovative way to take vitamins, OWYN Protein drinks, and SUJA Life who shared their new love collection with guests for the first time in the Hamptons.

 


Shave Stix
presented Gary Brody and other guests with the perfect hair eliminator tool and Huggs showcased their answer tonbetter sleep with their fabulous anti-hangover mask. (Though I am not a drinker, this is another new TGATP fave for migraines and general relaxation.) A pup-friendly section featured innovated tech from Oneisall and luxurious accessories from Glow-Pups. Jill & Ally also gifted their latest designs of pickleball paddles, which I am so excited about because I plan to learn how to play it soon. We were also given a sneak peak at the new Glass House Boca Raton, a stunning new luxury development.

 

As well as gifting stations, guests like Jean Sharioff and Meredith O’Connor could shop at the mini pop-up shops from KC Designs jewelry and Derek Lam. Modus Rio, a longtime TGATP favorite handbag line also had their beautiful bags for sale. 

To cap off the gifting extravaganza, luncheon guests received another gift bag from either Quilted Koala or Truvani stuffed with merch valued up to $5,000 that was transported from Palm Beach to the Hamptons with the help of Roadway Moving.
