30 Iconic Years of Marie France

MCG0025.jpg

Marie France celebrated 30 years of being the most trusted name in slimming and non-invasive weight loss in the country with a glittery affair at the Nobu Garden Patio. The guests were welcomed by Marie France President George Siy and his wife Mimi Siy, Jackie Siy-Share, Peter Prestige, Robin Horsman, and Angeline Siy-Fiechter. With the theme Iconic Figure, everybody dressed in the evening’s colors–glam white, bold black, and luxe gold–making for a picture-perfect affair._MG_1205 - Rose Ann Belmonte, Tessa Prieto-Valdez, Mimi Siy, George SiyCelebrating with Marie France are Rose Ann Belmonte and Tessa Prieto-Valdez with Mimi Siy and George Siy of Marie France._MG_1190 - Kevin Belmonte, Rose Ann Belmonte, Miguel Belmonte, George Siy, Millet Mananquil, Mimi SiyKevin Belmonte, Rose Ann Belmonte, Miguel Belmonte, George Siy, Millet Mananquil, and Mimi Siy party the night away._MG_0808 - NJ Torres, Mimi Siy, Sari Yap, George SiyDressed in the night’s colors are NJ Torres, Mimi Siy, Sari Yap, and George Siy.

Marie France brand ambassadors Sam Oh and Issa Litton, who were the night’s hosts, started off the festivities with sake shots. As the six-course dinner was served, guests were serenaded by a string quartet. Afterwards, a special video presenting a collection of inspiring slimming journeys of Marie France’s endorsers and clients was shown on LED screens placed around the venue. It was the perfect tribute to Marie France’s 30 years of weight loss that works.

An exclusive behind the scenes video was also presented that night, which highlighted the beautiful partnership between Marie France and the country’s top three luxury magazines: Town & Country, Metro Society, and Lifestyle Asia. This is the very first time that one brand was able to gather together these three magazines for iconic anniversary covers, supported by billboards all over the metro.

Another highlight of the event was the unveiling of a pioneering project between ICanServe and Marie France, which aims to show support and love for women who are battling breast cancer. The ICanServe awareness video was conceptualized and created by visual storyteller, Jason Magbanua, narrated by Dawn Zulueta-Lagdameo, with Lea Salonga singing “Save It All” by Marie Hines. Other talents and celebrity endorsers of Marie France and Facial Care Centre also contributed their time and effort to make this project a huge success.

Among the guests were Philippine Star President and CEO Miguel Belmonte, ABS-CBN Publishing President and CEO Ernesto Lopez, Summit Media President Lisa Gokongwei, One Mega Group CEO Sari Yap, Yes! Magazine EIC Jo-Ann Maglipon, ICanServe Foundation President Roxanne Singson, ICanServe Foundation Chairperson Elizabeth Verata, Donnie and Crickette Tantoco of the Rustan’s Group of Companies, People Asia’s Joanne Rae Ramirez, Tessa Prieto Valdez, Manila Bulletin’s Arnel Patawaran, restaurateurs Rikki and Beng Dee, Kevin and Rose Anne Belmonte, RJ and Vanessa Ledesma, Jeffrey Ng, Sheila Ramos, Jasen and Jenny Ko, and Larry and Roselen Ocampo, among others.

The party ended with a congratulatory toast to Marie France’s 30 successful years, which was made possible by the unending support of the people behind the country’s top publications. To celebrate this beautiful partnership, Marie France’s George Siy, Peter Prestige, and Robin Horsman together with Lifestyle Asia’s Anna Sobrepeña, Metro Society’s Raul Manzano, Philippine Tatler’s Mia Borromeo, Town & Country’s Yvette Fernandez, Philippine Star’s Millet Mananquil, and Philippine Daily Inquirer’s Thelma Sioson-San Juan, shared a toast to more years of friendship and success that will continue to transcend time, limits, and expectations._MG_0744 - Front - Crickette Tantoco, Donnie Tantoco, Pepper Teehankee, Ernesto Lopez, Miguel Belmonte, Back - NJ Torres, George Siy, Mimi SiyIn front are Crickette Tantoco, Donnie Tantoco, Pepper Teehankee, Ernesto Lopez, and Miguel Belmonte.
