L.A. STYLE Magazine’s Top 100 Industry Leaders Soirée, held at the iconic Le Méridien Pasadena-Arcadia, was a spectacular celebration of excellence, philanthropy, and community impact. Hosted by the Industry Leaders Association, the soirée honored distinguished professionals featured in the magazine’s Top 100 Doctors, Attorneys, and Real Estate Leaders.

An Exceptional Venue

Located in the heart of Pasadena, steps away from the iconic Santa Anita Horse Racetrack, Le Méridien Pasadena-Arcadia provided a venue of unmatched sophistication. With its mid-century modern charm, breathtaking views of the San Gabriel Mountains, and twilight-lit lawns, the venue offered an ambiance that elevated the evening to new heights.

The hotel’s culinary excellence was showcased through bespoke cocktails, passed elevated bites, and New American cuisine from Mélange, its on-site restaurant. Le Méridien Pasadena-Arcadia wasn’t just a location; it was the heartbeat of this unforgettable celebration of Southern California’s finest.

A Glamorous Affair

The soirée radiated elegance as honorees and guests graced the red carpet, embodying the sophistication synonymous with Southern California’s elite culture. Guests indulged in champagne, premium caviar by Astrea Caviar, and elevated bites while engaging in high-powered networking. This luxurious atmosphere created the perfect setting for trailblazers to forge meaningful connections.

Philanthropy at the Heart of the Celebration

Beyond the glamour, the soirée carried a deeper purpose: supporting the Generosity Group’s Expect Hope campaign, an initiative focused on rescuing children in Mexico from slavery and providing them with safety, education, and brighter futures.

Guests participated in raffles to help raise $5,600 for the campaign, with prizes including a Le Méridien Pasadena-Arcadia hotel stay and Mélange Restaurant dinner voucher; a California staycation featuring a two-night stay at a Lake Arrowhead retreat; an Emsculpt Neo treatment at Core Luxe by Top 100 Honoree Dr. Honey Milestone; dance classes presented by Super Ballroom Dance Studio; Hyperbaric Chamber Therapy provided by CEO2 Health; and an L.A. STYLE Magazine photoshoot.
