The pool was hot. The stars who attended The Marianna Group‘s HARVEST Awards Week Luxury Gifting Suite made the Beverly Hills Marriott pool deck even hotter.
More than 125 guests attended the company’s Emmy Week experience on Sept. 10, a private gifting event built around television’s biggest week. The setting may have been poolside, but Los Angeles was in the middle of a serious heat spell, making the afternoon as much about surviving the temperature as sampling the products.
Guests moved through a broad mix of beauty, skincare, fashion, wellness, spirits, jewelry, books, and luxury services, while music, lunch, and cocktails kept the atmosphere loose.
The Marianna Group presented the event, a female-owned entertainment marketing, consulting, and production company founded by Heather Marianna.
“This year’s celebration once again allowed us the opportunity to host select members of the Hollywood community to new and exciting brands, a sumptuous lunch with spirits, and plenty of music in a festive and rockin’ atmosphere,” Marianna noted to REEL 360 News.
The guest list included Emmy winner Ernest Harden Jr. of The Pitt, along with nominees Lauren Weedman (Hacks), Carlos Manuel Vesga (Pluribus), Dale Dickey (Widow’s Bay), Kim Estes (Big Law) and Stacy Haiduk (Days of Our Lives).
Also attending were Constance Marie, Diana Maria Riva, Gilles Marini, Geoffrey Blake, Rosa Blasi, Kristian Alfonso, Beth Broderick, Maria Canals-Barrera, Naomi Grossman, Sean Kanan, Ray Proscia, Nicholas Guest, Sofia Milos, Lisa Vidal, Debra Christofferson and Mark L. Walberg, among others.
The afternoon also included Kiss My Paws Rescue, which brought dogs to the event while raising awareness for rescue, rehabilitation and adoption.

Sponsor brands ranged from Beauty Kitchen, Pixi and Manta Sleep to Empress 1908 Gin, Dulce Vida Organic Tequila, Hermanas Amigas Tequila, Caviar Nomad, Lizzy James Jewelry, N-O-E-E Skincare, Buzzbox, the Aurora Method by Tracy Doyle and Evian Spray.
With the Emmy frenzy now in the rearview mirror, the event stands as one of those classic Los Angeles awards-week snapshots: stars, gifting bags, brands, cocktails, and a pool that probably looked better by the minute as the temperature climbed. Take a look at some photos from the event below:
