Promoting the OC’s Life-Dimension Ice Sculpture For Gio Helou

When tuning in to the second season of “Promoting the OC,” we did not count on the actual property to get overshadowed by a few ice sculptures. Then once more, we have by no means seen ice sculptures fairly like this. After solid member and realtor Gio Helou hit $100 million in gross sales, he turned to Kat Johann, occasion planner and proprietor of Events by the Sea, to assist throw a celebration in his honor (as one does). The celebration included the same old pleasantries — a shock boat entrance, beautiful flowers, and loads of dramatic confrontations from the remainder of the solid — however there was one element even Helou himself could not have dreamt up: a towering ice sculpture that seemed identical to him.

“The solid members have been speaking to the sculpture as if it have been Gio.”

“I stunned Gio with the concept of constructing a life-size sculpture of himself. He, after all, liked the concept, and one of the best half was the solid’s reactions after they walked in and have been utterly blown away,” Johann tells POPSUGAR. In accordance with her, the ultimate creation, modeled in Helou’s picture, was virtually as tall as he’s. (He stands at about 5’10”, for the file.) “There have been a number of segments of the present the place the solid members have been speaking to the sculpture as if it have been Gio,” Johann says. “It was numerous work however ended up being so stunning, and the ice sculpture was the spotlight!”

The “Promoting Sundown” franchise has a peculiar prowess for lavish events, setting the bar excessive with an particularly controversial “Burgers and Botox” dealer’s open and a zebra-friendly engagement occasion courtesy of the enduring Christine Quinn. With a new solid and loads of floor left to cowl, “Promoting the OC” actually had massive footwear to fill, however Johann hasn’t backed down from the problem.

She was initially tapped to plan the 100 Million Greenback Sale occasion only one week earlier than it filmed for Netflix. No strain. Along with the huge Helou doppelgänger — which doubled as a spot to carry glasses of champagne — Johann additionally designed a customized ice luge for the solid to take photographs off of, carving “Promoting the OC” and “Gio’s 100 Million” into the perimeters. Will “Promoting the OC” deliver the ice into season three? We will not say for positive simply but. However look ahead to Johann subsequent season, and relaxation assured that extra spectacular events are already underway.
