The theme for this year’s Gala – Cherry Blossom Forest – transported guests into nature with cherry blossom trees featuring various shades of beautiful pink blossoms. Plush furniture, walnut, and pops of pink accents brought the fall forest to life. For the 12th consecutive year, the Gala was designed and produced by Tony Schubert of Event Eleven, a world-class end-to-end production company.

Guests enjoyed a menu created by Wolfgang Puck and musical entertainment provided by DJ Michelle Pesce. Drinks included cocktails featuring Chopin Vodka and Dorda Liqueur and wines by Cooper’s Hawk Winery and Restaurants.

At the end of the night, attendees left with a Lug (@luglife) gift bag (Women’s Gondola XL or Men’s Puddle Jumper Duffel) filled with items from Biossance, Bombas, Dr. Bronners, HairMax, Laki Naturals, Lapcos, Life’s Grape, Listerine, Manuka Health New Zealand, Minted, Olloclip, ONE Brands, Patchology, PopSockets, RXBAR, #SeeHer, SiO, SmartSweets, Speck Products, Sweets Party Treats, Talenti, The Best Friend Totes, Trtl and WEN Hair and Body Care by Chaz Dean.

In gratitude to the actors and the entertainment community for their countless hours of volunteer work, Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), a division of the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), will make a grant to the SAG-AFTRA Foundation's emergency assistance programs, which helps performing artists in urgent need, including those suffering with cancer diagnoses. PEOPLE and EIF have partnered with the SAG-AFTRA Foundation for more than two decades, and Stand Up To Cancer is pleased to support the SAG-AFTRA Foundation in this way.
