J GROUP EVENTS

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE EVENT PLANNING DUO, Jassi Lekach Antebi and her friend and partner Hinda Adler at J Group Events, established in 2005. They have helped pull off wed-dings in two weeks, as well as kept high profile clients like Cartier

happy for many years with their attention to detail and creativity in event planning. The event duo, Antebi and Adler met each other at the University of Miami,

where they both had internships with Karla Dascal of Karla: Conceptual Event Ex-periences. They stayed in close contact as friends after graduating, but went their separate ways in their professional lives as Antebi went off to study interior design in Florence and Adler went straight to work. It wasn’t until Adler was planning her own wedding and became fed up with the company she hired that she contacted Antebi. “I got to the point in my wedding where I couldn’t deal with who I was working with and I called Jassi and said, ‘I need you to do my wedding!’” recalls Adler, knowing her friend would get it right. “And that was it. We worked so well together…” Adler said. “I could’ve not been involved [at all] and I would’ve walked

into my wedding and it still would have been perfect!” Adler added.They forged a partnership, but only on the premise that it would not get in the

way of their friendship. That was not a problem and the two get along swimmingly. As a team they like to get inspiration for their events from traveling, shows and even social media.

“For me I think it’s really important to go to great restaurants, to go to differ-ent cities, go to the gift shows, all those things. The J Group Events Instagram @jgroupevents, is filled with gorgeous images of both past luxe events and images that inspire them.

For them, the most important first step in planning an event is the venue. “Obvi-ously, we try to make every party as unique as possible and we really try not to have repeated themes or visions, and I think the space is very important,” said Antebi. “You can’t just say, ‘Oh, I want it to be this.’ And then stick it in any type of venue. You have to work with the venue and make sure it works with what your vision is,” added Adler.

Clients of J Group Events can be as specific or broad as they like when planning an event. The two can take an idea and run with it, or come up with their own. They work hard with clients to avoid any confusion or missed details that having a third party in the way may cause. They come to us with trust and confidence and we take that very seriously.

J Group Events can handle all types of events from weddings to corporate and social events. They have worked with high profile clients like Jeff Gordon, for whom they planned a very meaningful retirement party. It was very emotional be-cause it was the last race of his career,” explains Antebi. They also planned a Paris-ian dinner for Paris Hilton; a Swarovski covered party in New York for tennis star Maria Sharapova and an entire ice bar in Mexico, and have an on going relationship with Cartier that has resulted in countless lavish affairs all over the world.

Their specialty is making affairs that are both lavish and inviting and approacha-ble. They handle every detail so clients are stress-free and have only to enjoy them-selves. “We like things done well, so I think when you walk into our parties you feel like it’s very well designed and it is a luxury event always, but it’s not ostentatious,” said Antebi.

When they aren’t working or spending time with their families, the ladies like to give back to many charities mostly involved with the Jewish Community. Their charities of choice include the Women’s International Zionist Organization the so-cial service infrastructure in Israel for women and children, the local Jewish Com-munity Services, Jewish Adoption and Family Care Options and a Kosher food bank. Children are our focus. It’s what we’re most connected to,” added Adler.

The future for the company includes more events for Cartier. “They’re

one of our consistent clients, so we get to do a lot of fun things with them. We are working on two parties for them now. We do one in Geneva now in January, we do

SUNLIT SUPER SALON

The 7,000 square-foot sunlit space

with its 30-foot ceilings is chic,

yet comfortable with inviting sofas and a

friendly resident Chihuahua.

CELEBRITY STYLIST AND PHOTOGRAPHER, Sheenon Olson, along with partner Ana Lessa, has opened Atma Beauty Salon in Sunset Harbour. Atma introduces a new level of luxury to the modern day salon by focusing on both outer and inner beauty and

offering an upscale salon experience in an intimate and welcoming setting. The lofty, minimalist salon brings an unexpected New York feel to Miami. “This is where all the locals are going. Lincoln Road has become the Santa Monica promenade, it’s for tourists,” Olson ex-plained.

The 7,000 square-foot sunlit space with its 30-foot ceilings is chic, yet comfortable with inviting sofas and a friendly resident Chihua-hua. It’s the kind of place that makes one want to linger with a glass of wine or cup of coffee. “We have thoughtfully designed the sa-lon to create the most pampering beauty experience possible. Atma isn’t only a salon. It’s a personification of all my passions — beauty, photography, makeup, and style — under one roof,” said Olson. The salon offers services by both local and traveling stylists, colorists and beauty experts that are all pros in their fields. Services include color, styling, spray tans by Fabiola Trujillo’s SoBe Tan, nails, Kera-tin straightener, extensions, makeup, and very soon, Botox.

In addition to providing top-notch services, Atma uses products that are free of harmful chemicals and the salon itself is part of Green Circle Salons, meaning they recycle everything — including human hair that can be used to clean up an oil spill. Although they are conscious of chemicals, the products look and smell beautiful. “One of the things that people love about [the products] is the aro-mas. To do this, they went to a serious perfume house to create a scent for the line,” said Olson.

Olson, who is known for working with several A-List celebrities, including Alessandra Ambrosia and Elizabeth Olson, brings his countless years of experience from working with world-renowned publications, such as Marie Claire, Nylon and Vogue. He is also up to date on all the latest hair trends, including the au-natural “Cali-fornia beach wave” look that is so hot in Los Angeles, where Olson lived most recently. “Everybody wants their hair to be perfectly undone, but then they are walking out with the Fendi bag or the Hermes bag.”

Atma also has a photo studio in its sprawling loft, offering edito-rial and personal photography.

The Empire of Death

"So are you coming?" asked my father as he started to slowly descend the spiral stairs into the dark hidden

area below the Pisa cathedral. I hesitated for a moment as the curiosity of what was below collided with the

fear caused by my imagination.

“They're just inside large-decorated marble and stone boxes," my father explained trying to convince me.

“No way,” I replied.

While I waited for my father to resurface I walked around relived that I had escaped the experience of being

chased by resurrected decomposing priest and rich monarchs buried in those roman sarcophagi below. I

walked around the large cathedral staring up at the large frescos and vaulted ceiling. Then, I reached a black

marble alter and froze in awe. There it was: the very thing I had just said no to. A tall glass-paned

sarcophagus with a spotlight on a skeleton of an important priest.

“Is that real?” I asked one of the workers. They politely smiled and replied in Italian, “Si, guarda i piedi.”

"Look at the feet?" I thought puzzled.

There they were the white long skinny bones of a human foot peaking out from the decorative sheet

covering the rest of the body. I was so distracted by the ornate golden mask placed over the skeleton’s face

that I had missed the truth. Now I was staring intensely at this body inside a display case waiting for it to

animate. I walked away intrigued at the fact that this skeleton was displayed like some kind of show, while all

the others were hidden underground. If death was so prominently displayed out here than something much

darker must be in the crypt kept out of sight.

Several years later I stood at a large dark green entrance at the top of a spiral stair case. “So are you

coming?” asked my friends excited by the thought of heading down below the streets of Paris. “Of course!”

I said. This was my chance to finally see what I had missed in Pisa and stare 200 year old death in the face.

Surely by now I was old enough to not be terrified by dead bodies in old boxes, besides these bodies had

been dead for so long that all that should be left was bone.

The tour began in small white rooms whose walls were covered entirely with information and photographs of

the catacombs. This served as a last point of calm. As you stepped out of the last room into the low ceiling

path of the catacombs there was a feeling of having less oxygen in a cramped space and nothing but

darkness ahead. Our feet crunched on the gravel-covered floor. We passed two large columns painted black

and white and reached a marble doorway with the inscription “Arrètte! C'est ici l'empire de la mort.”

I pointed up and told my friends, “Well, I guess we are entering The Empire of Death.” "That is terrifying,”

replied one of the girls as she walked slowly through the doorway. “No way!” a friend ahead of us in the

path exclaimed, “Come look at the skulls.”

As promised past that doorway were innumerable bones perfectly staked against both sides of the path.

Some stacks were taller then most of us and seemed to be perfectly organized in layers arraigned by bone

type. Farther down the path we reached slightly bigger sections of the catacombs, which were still covered

Page 9: Resume 2016

in bone stacks, but this time there were designs: crosses, hearts and arches all made up of precisely placed

remains. “The poor workers who had to move all these bones from the cemeteries must have been pretty

bored down here,” I said to my friends who were inspecting the designs more closely. “I guess,” one of

them replied seeming a little disgusted. “What if they did this on purpose? Maybe this place was meant to

be visited,” replied my other friend who was trying to get a good picture of one of the designs.

We continued on the path which got smaller again and surprised you every so often with a pitch black

opening beside you were anything could be waiting to grab you. We were nearing the end now, but there

was one last surprise. Carved into the left portion of this limestone path was a large scale and very detailed

model of what looked like a very expensive French chateau. This perfectly lit museum quality display

reminded me of that glass paned black marble sarcophagus in Pisa. Death was on display above and below

here too without any reservations.

5 Haute Tips For The Perfect HalloweenBash

BY PAMELA CAMPANI | NEWS | OCTOBER 21, 2015

Halloween parties can be a fabulous event. There is more to Halloween decor than pumpkins, skeletons, batsand white bed-sheet ghosts. Here are some chic tips from some luxe-decor experts:

Use A Simple Color Palette:

Elle Decor recommends keeping it simple when it comes to selecting a color. Black is always chic and isperfectly appropriate for a Halloween bash. Not to mention it looks great with accents of gold, silver or even avampy red. If you just can’t stick to simple Aimee Beatty, Pier 1 Imports’ in-house stylist, recommends optingfor a simple color with a pattern to create sophisticated contrast in your decor.

Use Lighting to Set The Mood:

Another tip from Elle Decor, lighting to set the spooky atmosphere. Forgot the fake blood and spider websinstead decorate groups of antique looking candle holders or even glass bottles, which can also be used ascandle holders. And lighting the candles pre-party allows the wax to trickle down leaving a creepy effect.

Themed Food Is Your Friend:

Keeping your decor simple helps avoid cliches or worse the kiddie trick-or-treat feel. Now take it one stepfurther by serving Halloween themed food like a signature cocktail. Martha Stewart has a recipe for eye ballmartinis made with lychee and berries that are both creepy and delicious. A great way to celebrate Halloweenwith adult only fun. Elle decor also suggests creating spider web designs on cookies or the cake with a largespider detail added to bring some more traditional Halloween motifs to the party without going over the top.

Paint Your Pumpkins:

Carving pumpkins is so passé, if you want your party to stand out you should decorate with completely whiteor black pumpkins. Add patterns or a face in a second color as recommended by Harper’s Bazaar and thenyou really have something special. Black pumpkins look great with beautifully contrasted gold paintedpatterns like the one’s found on the Grandinroad website.

Seriously Scary Skulls Are A Must

If pumpkins are too PG for you then skulls is the way to go according to VOGUE. From pillows, glasses,candles and plates to a $8,000 limited-edition Swarovski encrusted decorative skull by L’objet you should besure to add this dramatic piece to your haute Halloween decor.

Diana Picasso, Ana Khouri, Shala Monroque, Hannah Bronfman, Hassan Pierre and Benjamin Kazan. They

enjoyed drinks served in champagne glasses decorated with delicate flowers.

The space was a beautiful oasis where guests and VIPs can see and participate in different installations and

experiences each day of the event, including a living green photo booth, a personalized tasting cellar experience

with the Cellar Master Hervé Deschamps, an organic bar with indigenous Miami florals, and the Enchanting Tree

installation created by London-based designer Tord Boontje, all accompanied by spectacular views of the

The overwhelming amounts of natural plants and flowers throughout the space gave a concrete visual to match

the floral wines that are elegantly created by the Champagne House Perrier-Jouët, and perfectly packaged in the

art nouveau anemone adorned Belle Époque bottles that were spread throughout the space.

That same evening they hosted an intimate dinner with Victoria de Portales by Parisian gallery VnH gallery

whose focus is representing artist of all horizons and all generations. Guests included Helene Nguyen-Ban,

David Simkins and Patricia Marshall.

The House of Perrier-Jouët has created wines with a floral, stylish, unique signature and diamond-cut. The

company’s craftsmen have passed down their precious wisdom of wine making from father to son for two

centuries. The easily recognizable Japanese anemones engraved on their bottles first came to be in 1902

cementing the association between Perrier-Jouët and Art Nouveau.
