GBK Events Take Center Stage

Los Angeles is known for their star-studded events, but GBK’s red carpet soirees take center stage, according to Hollywood celebrities. From Anthony Anderson, Susan Sarandon and Viola Davis, you’re bound to be captivated at GBK’s memorable affairs.

Gavin Keilly, GBK’s CEO and founder, is always front and center at each event, making sure they all give back to a worthy cause. His recent Beverly Hills gift lounge, honoring Oscar nominees and presenters, benefited The Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) whose mission is to end malnutrition, and Route 91, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting families who have suffered tragedies. In the last several years alone, GBK has raised over $200 MILLION for over 50 different charities. Now this is something to celebrate!

In addition to helping charities in need, Keilly’s company focuses on helping businesses grow. Il Palato, an exclusive club for those who love Italian foods and wines, treated Keilly’s recent event guests with Italian noshes and sweets (including an artisanal desert flown in straight from Italy!). The company features exclusive Italian products which can be delivered to your door, or enjoyed up close and personal in Italy, with personal cooking classes and professional Italian chefs.

Nothing says star-studded like a luxurious gemstone, and Diamonds International was first in line wowing guests with their stunning Safi Kilima Tanzanite bracelet. What started as a small store in St. Thomas, blossomed to over 125 locations across the globe featuring elegant timepieces, luxury rings, earrings, bracelets, necklaces and pendants (and wedding bands for men), all at an unsurpassed value. Additionally, Diamonds International is committed to giving back, and by funding educational projects in impoverished countries, construction efforts in Caribbean areas affected by hurricanes, and orphanages that house sick children, they’re able to support deserving causes to the communities in which they serve.

GE Lighting introduced their C by GE Sol all-in-one smart light, the first smart lamp to integrate with Alexa. Dimmable, switchable light variation, and controllable by mobile app… their sleek modern design is the perfect addition to any room.

ADM, one of the largest design management forums in Asia, invited VIP guests to attend their luxury lounge in China in November, and Healing Salt Caves welcomed attendees to their halotherapy wellness center and holistic spa in Ontario, Canada, for a rejuvenating experience of natural healing.

The Artisan Group featured one-of-a-kind products from their talented group of artisans around the world such as luxurious bath and body products, exclusive jewelry and unique accessories including: hand-poured natural soy candles from AromaSoy; custom-made vintage jewelry from Jen Volkodav Design; brooch pins made from offcuts of vintage Japanese kimono fabrics from Heritage ReFashioned; luscious bath bombs with jewelry surprises from Magpie Bath; handcrafted gemstone jewelry from Fizz Candy; artisan-crafted recycled jewelry from The Vintage Locket; and all-natural create-your-own perfume kits from Mixify Beauty.

TexereSilk showed off their elegant 100% silk hand-painted women’s pajamas and premium home linens, Dagoma USA featured their easy to use 3D printers, and Living in Gratitude Today gifted “Grateful” bracelets and tees, reminding us that focusing on gratitude will help us get through whatever challenges life throws our way.

Travel was in the air as reps from ICON Aircraft (a sport plane manufacturer) gifted guests a Sport Flying Introduction on their award-winning designed A5 sport plane, capable of flying from land or water. Known for their superior aeronautical engineering and word-class product design, the A5 features folding wings to allow it to be trailered home, from the lake or the airport!

Travel enthusiasts also learned about Surf Air, a membership-only air travel club, offering unlimited private flights for a monthly fee. VIP guests from GBK can now say goodbye to security lines and commercial airports and hello to an all-you-can-fly service along the U.S West Coast!

NICA Travel offered a two-night hotel stay in Granada, Swanky Retreats magazine treated celebrities to a two-night stay in either Puerto Vallarta or Portugal, and The Woodhouse Day Spa gifted a luxury 5-star experience at their day spa in Victoria, Texas.

St. Supéry Estate Tasting Salon offered a Napa getaway right in heart of Beverly Hills. Their classy Rodeo Drive tasting room features wine flights and interactive wine experiences through August 2018.

My Sky Moment took guests back in time, as folks went home with their very own personalized star map depicting the night sky on any given day and time (and from any location on earth!).

Other cool finds included a hand-held device that uses radiant energies to relieve pain from coMra Palm, American-made wooden products from Woodchuck USA, high-quality vitamins and supplements from Nanocuetical Solutions, and a display-free smart scale and motivational app from Shapa.
