GBK Gifting Lounge for the Emmys- September 2015
Another fabulous Gifting lounge put together by GBK for the Emmys. We met many of the sponsors/vendors and enjoyed the festivities. Below are a list of the exhibitors. Many were only gifting to the celebs but they were all very friendly and provided great info about their company and products which you can see below. Quite a number of Emmy nominees attended at the beautiful L’ermitage Beverly Hills for the 2 day event before the Emmys on Sunday. It looked like another successful event with happy guests and satisfied talent. For photos, see the links below.
