Stefani Seek - Author of "Your Love Compass"

Heather Marianna is an absolute pro at organizing and running celebrity gifting events, and this year's Enchant Oscars Celebrity Gifting Event was an incredible example of her talents and connections. I was fortunate enough to be selected as a vendor for this event, and Heather treats her vendors like royalty.  Her written and verbal communication leading up to the event is top-notch, and you feel like she is personally invested in your success. My gifting table at this incredible celebrity-filled party was huge for my growing business. Heather is a true professional and I'm excited to continue partnering with her for many years to come.

Leslie Capps - Author of "Turn Your Story Into Business Gold"

I had the honor of showcasing my book, Turn Your Story Into Business Gold at Enchant Gifting Lounge and seeing it among such an elite crowd was a full-circle moment. Every conversation reinforced the power of storytelling—not just in business, but in life. You don’t walk away from an event like this as the same person—you leave inspired, expanded, and ready for what’s next. If you’re considering being part of this experience, don’t hesitate. It’s more than an event—it’s an elevation for you and your business. Gracious. High-vibe. Unforgettable.

Blanche - Founder of Blanche Cosmetics

Ignite: A Luxury Gifting Suite '' celebrating Oscar nominees, was absolutely amazing. As a new business owner, events like this mean more than I can put into words.

I was also blessed to receive some encouragement and helpful advice from successful entrepreneurs & celebrities who have been in the game for years! I could go on and on about the energy, the hugs, the laughs and so much more, but I’ll stop here by saying again: THANK YOU!

“Ignite” Oscars gifting Lounge In 2024 was so fantastic! I was able to debut my product line to celebrities, influencers, and the media all day long. I was posted on multiple platforms and written up in a lifestyle magazine within days! There must have been over 600 people throughout the day and I would say it was a rousing success with multiple unique brands across multiple industries! Heather puts on first class events!

Guest Reviews

The Enchant Gifting Suite is truly the most exceptional gifting experience I’ve had the pleasure of being a part of. Heather does an outstanding job curating sponsors who are genuinely passionate about their products and creating an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and heartfelt. This event is an absolute must for celebrating awards season.
-Miles Tagtmeyer - Emmy nominated actor and producer

Aptly named, the Enchant Gifting Suite is enchanting!  A delightful day of drinks and conversation with generous gifters, passionate about their products.  I’m always happy to hear them share their stories, and help them get the word out.  It’s hard out there for a small business— Enchant takes the drudge out of marketing, and makes it fun… for the celebrities too!
-Naomi Grossman - Emmy nominated actress best known for American Horror Story

This was the best event I attended this awards season, congratulations!
Kate Linder - Actress best known for The Young & The Restless

While the products in the Gifting Suite were great, the party that IS the Gifting Suite is even better.  It’s full of fascinating people, each with their own eccentric story behind their innovative items; lots of great food and even better wine and booze. The Gifting Suite is a total blast!  I would go even if there were no ‘gifts!’
Larry Kasanoff - Producer, Mortal Kombat

“As the event came to a close, one thing became clear: the Harvest Premier Celebrity Gifting Lounge is not just about showcasing luxury—it’s about celebrating the intersection of craftsmanship, innovation, and mindful living. Each brand brought something unique to the table, and we look forward to seeing how they continue to influence the world of luxury, wellness, and sustainability in the years to come.”
