3WOW CREATIONS 2026 PRE-EMMYS GIFTING SUITE

The Wow Creations pre-Emmys gifting suite was back at their favorite venue, the Universal Hilton. Only this time Mark Harris helmed it solo without his twin, Matt, who took this one off. And I’m happy to report that he did his usual great job.

My newest contributing writer, John, had never been to this one before and he told me, “It was fun to meet Mark, and to have a few minutes to speak with some of the other attendees. And Wow did something I haven’t seen before at other suites—there were gifts on tables as the guests checked in! I noticed an elaborately packaged face serum and a new book in a beautiful purple pouch. And as a pet owner, I was excited to discover an ultrasonic tick fighter. I also got a kick out of seeing the large, well-lit step-and-repeat which provided a fun photo opportunity for everyone.”

We went to Wow sort-of early in the day, (for me, anyway,) so we loved that as we turned the corner after getting off the elevator, we came upon some delish morning refreshments. First up was La Belle Delight’s coffee bar, which John was thrilled to see. He enjoyed his iced caramel macchiato from them. Everyone was milling around the table of tasty sweet treats by Marissa’s Cake, which John says were “beautifully displayed.” Everything was petite, which was perfect for not loading-up on desserts before the lunch fare inside the suite. Among them were mini versions of chocolate chip cookies, brownies, mango mousse, tiramisu, and my fave—a creative rendition of strawberry shortcake! I could have eaten a dozen of them! (But no worries—I saved some for everyone else.)

And then after we *meeted-and-greeted, the very first thing we saw when we entered the suite was a Mexican food bar from Lovely Taco Catering. There were several different items, all delicious. We both loved the chicken tostadas the most. John describes it for us: “The crunchy tortilla topped with chicken and fresh garnishes hit the spot; they were exactly what I needed to boost my energy as I discussed products with gifting sponsors.”  We especially enjoyed that there were sooo many different sauces and salsas for us to top our tidbits with—I wanted to try them all! *(I know that word doesn’t belong in the past tense, but “met-and”greeted” doesn’t rhyme, so it defeats its own purpose.)

Once satiated, we finally looked around the rest of the room and noticed that there were many different services that we could have availed ourselves of this time, such as palm reading, healing, energy blessing, and even life coaching! I was interested in them all, but as we had more commitments that day, and were already time-constrained, we weren’t able to do any.

So we just checked-out the gifts, and are happy to share the highlights of them with you:

Art Lewin Bespoke—John said, “This celebrity tailor always impresses.” He also constantly surprises us with different bespoke items. This time, each of his gift bags contained a colorful pocket square, which John said were made of “so many beautiful fabrics that I have no idea how anyone chose among them!,” along with a pair of lovely dress socks, a few collar stays, and the thing I need most—a shoehorn! www.artlewinbespoke.com

Central Cali Caregivers—I am always happy to see the head of this wellness company—he’s one the most pleasant people at any suite! This time, he seemed to be repping even more products than usual, but, as always, I had eyes, (or more accurately, back,) for only their famous Miracle Healing Rub! I had been singing its praises to John on the way there, so he really enjoyed seeing it in person. And learning about their special eye drops, as well. www.centralcalicaregivers.net

Dr. Monica’s Natural Beauty—I was happy to see Dr. Monica back at Wow again, gifting a choice of a trio of her roll-on fragrances. John tried one on the spot, and tells us, “A little rub of Dr. Monica’s Scentsual Scents lasted throughout the day.  The aromatic vanilla scent not only smells heavenly, it is also plant-based and sustainably made.” (I add, yes—“Scentsual” is spelled correctly here. It’s a clever combo of “scent” and “sensual.”) www.drmonicasnaturalbeauty.com

Life Storms—This author was happy to gift her book, along with a “calming candle” and “handy notebook,” (as John calls them,) and chat about her experiences that inspired her to write it. John spent quite a bit of time talking with her, and says, “It was a pleasure to meet Tracy Doyle. I look forward to reading about the practices she learned to overcome negative thinking, build connection, and find fulfillment.”

G.L.A.M Body Scrubs—John tells us this “friendly team of women generously gifted samples of a duo of their products–luxuriant body scrub and a delicious-smelling herb mix.” And I knew what to expect right away as soon as I saw their signature gold pouches!

Awakening to the Fifth Dimension—The author of this book, Kimberly Meredith, was on-site, signing a copy for each guest. She also did psychic readings in the easiest way. For example, as soon as John and I walked up to her table, before we even exchanged pleasantries, Kimberly told me my father was with me! At first, I thought she needed her eyes checked because I mistakenly assumed that she was talking about young-looking John. But then she said my deceased parent was on my left shoulder! As the title of this suite states–wow. www.thehealingtrilogy.com

As we were leaving, John went over to Mark Harris to thank him, and came back all excited. I asked what that was about, and he said Mark told him that he and his bro are already gearing-up for their next event for the Golden Globes in January! John is ready to go right now.

And please don’t forget to check-out my Emmys tweets tonight, @MajorCelebrity, beginning with the arrivals at 3PM, West Coast time. I’m sharpening my snark right now!
