Debby Ryan's Sweet 16 Birthday Party
Media Room | Academy Awards Gifting Suites | Debby Ryan's Sweet 16
Debby & Jeanette
Les Duex, Hollywood
May 17th, 2009
Got All Your Marbles? was invited to attend Debby Ryan's Sweet 16 birthday party and gift jewelry to the exclusive celebrity guests. William and Lisa travelled to Hollywood in mid-May bringing with them four of the Got All Your Marbles? Catalog Girls, (all Sweet 16!) Following is their account of the event:
We celebrated the party at Les Deux, a luxurious and glamorous European style hotspot in the heart of Hollywood. When we arrived we thought it seemed very exclusive because other than the black numbers on the wall, there was no other decoration or signage. You really have to be in the know to get into this nightclub!
The Got All Your Marbles? Sweet 16 Catalog Girls
We arrived and set-up our display in the back area with the bar, where we were given the room to ourselves. After setting up we went back to our hotel to freshen up. We returned an hour early for the party and excitedly awaited the arrival of the guests.
'Get Connected' is the group of amazing people that organizes many celebrity events. They made sure to introduce us to the individual celebrities so that we would know who was who as we rubbed elbows with the stars at Debby Ryan's Sweet 16!
The whole Got All Your Marbles? crew, including the four 16 year old 'Catalog Girls' wore all black so that we would seem a cohesive unit and stand apart from the rest of the party. As it was a masqurade party, all the party goers wore masks and capes with their formal tuxedoes and gowns.

Jennifer Stone, Harper on the Wizards of Waverly Place
We could tell she was really excited about her party. She left to greet her arriving guests, and we could barely contain our excitement as the party had now begun.
Immediately after that Jennifer Stone, who plays Harper on the Wizards of Waverly Place visited our booth! She was so different from the character she plays on the show. She looked lovely and wore a beautiful and elegant corsetted dress. She chose an Itty Bitty Mod Ring and loved the way the aqua marble matched her hair extensions perfectly.
When Jennifer realized that the ring could hold any of the marbles from the bag, she whooped and said that it will be fabulous to be able to coordinate the marbles with her variously colored hair extensions. She said then that she was now done for the evening and couldn't wait to get out of her shoes.
We asked the celebrities to sign a Got All Your Marbles? poster when they came to our booth. They all signed Happy Birthday messages to Debby Ryan! It is fun to see where they decided to sign and what they had to say.
The twins loved the whole Got All Your Marbles? concept. They chose a Fancy Simple Pendant for their mother, and a keychain each for themselves. They also got one Itty Bitty Mod Ring between them. Later, before leaving the party, Dylan returned to get another ring so that they each could have one!

Laramie Shaw, Malik from House of Payne
Jeanette McCurdy (Sam Puckett from iCarly) was cute and glamorous in a sophisticated black dress with a beautifully jewelled collar. She was very sweet and posed for some great photos for us.
Next, Laramie Shaw, who plays Malik on House of Payne, showed up at our booth looking very spiffy in a tuxedo and top hat. He was enthusiastic about his upcoming success as House of Payne had been picked up for another season.

Sterling Knight and Ryan Pinkston
After that, Sterling Knight, who you know well from his many Disney appearances (most currently as his character Chad Dylan Cooper on Sonny with a Chance,) and his friend Ryan Pinkston showed up at the booth just having a great time at the party. They recieved their gifts while laughing and joking with each other then signed our poster before they moved on to mingle with the other guests.
David Henrie (Justin Russo on the Wizards of Waverly Place) walked into the room next. He was handsome, cool and casual, and caused all of the Catalog Girls to swoon. The girls couldn't wait to get their picture taken with him. He was also very gracious in recieving his gift. We know we will be seeing more of this talented young man in the future!
Anna Maria Perez de Tagle
The most popular pieces from our line were anything Itty Bitty. The Itty Bitty rings got special attention from the young actresses, who really loved them! Some of the stars were more pendant people, and they tended to choose and Itty Bitty pendant.
Everyone had a wonderful time in Hollywood! The stars really appreciated that the marbles could be changed out so that you can accessorize perfectly with your whole wardrobe. We had so much fun meeting the celebrities and gifting them jewelry!
