The night’s hosts, Marie France ambassadorsโ Sam Oh and Issa Litton, welcomed theย guests by proposing sake shots to officially start the party. As the six-course dinner was served, guests were serenaded by a string quartet. During dinner, a special video was shownย on the LED screens placed around the venue, presenting a collection of inspiring slimmingย journeys of Marie France’s endorsers and clients. It was the perfect tribute to Marie France’sย 30 years of weight-loss that works.
An exclusive sneak peak of a behind the scene video was also presented that night,ย that highlighted the beautiful partnership between Marie France and the top three luxury magazines inย the country, Town & Country, Metro Society andย Lifestyle Asia – the very first time that one brand hasย been able to gather these three magazines for one iconic anniversary cover, supported byย billboards all over the Metro.
