Party Packs at the PR Store

When Lisa Rinna hosted a party for the reopening of her boutique clothing store, Belle Gray, she turned to the PR Store for guests' party packs.

Actually, it was hubby, Harry Hamlin, who walked into the Sherman Oaks PR Store to place the order. You'd think a celebrity couple of their caliber would have an assistant to handle details like this, but Lisa and Harry are very "hands-on." I came to respect Lisa's business savvy, when I would appear regularly as a party expert on her talk show "Soap Talk," and was privy to make-up room conversations, where she would chat about her ventures.

Most Hollywood parties are executed by promoters, public relation firms, or event planners. With an outlet like the PR Store, any one can walk in and order customized bags, frames, mugs, or personalized party favors, without the mark up of a middleman. The Belle Gray party bags contained gift certificates to local businesses, and branded schwag like water bottles, pens, and more.

Last Fall, the PR Store put together all the imprinted elements for a celeb wedding, from embossed invitations to personalized Swarovski crystal favors for guests. I love the idea of one-stop shopping, and the fact that you can just walk in without an appointment, is perfect for those of us who operate on the fly!
