Summer is coming to an end and that means saying good-bye to our beloved Rosé season. But fall is just around the corner and that means sweaters, pumpkins, and cocktails (because even we need a break from rosé all day).
God’s Love We Deliver hosted their annual and anticipated Hamptons benefit over the weekend at the Bridgehampton home of Ophelia & Bill Rudin and Alex Papachristidis & Scott Nelson.
The event featured a lively auction held in the estate’s garden and Canard catering provided tasty bites like mac and cheese truffle balls, oysters, and Samoa chocolate truffles. Specialty cocktails and champagne were also served.
Some of this year’s sponsors were Bobbi Brown, Bumble & Bumble and Sol de Janeiro. Needless to say the gift bag was pretty amazing… (hey, its for charity!) And speaking of, over $350,000 was raised from the event which is definitely something we can toast to.
Friends of the charity include Michael Kors, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, model Jac Monika Jagaciak, and the later Joan Rivers.

The Knockturnal spent another amazing weekend in The Hamptons filled with beach days, lobster rolls and plenty of swoon worthy charity events to keep us busy – including the third Holiday House Hamptons presented by HC&G which kicked off with Saturday night’s invite only opening White Party.
The 3rd annual La Nuit en Rosé festival came to an end over the weekend but not without leaving a slew of pink filled memories in its wake.
The Knockturnal celebrated National Friendship Day with a rooftop Martini party at the Elit Penthouse in New York City’s Marmara hotel.
DuJour CEO Jason Binn and Leslie Farrand hosted DuJour Media’s annual summer kick off party in East Hampton over Memorial Day Weekend in celebration of May’s Melania Trump cover.
The world’s first festival dedicated exclusively to rosé wine is back in NYC for it’s 3rd year and we could not be more excited.
On Monday the 16th, The Knockturnal attended a private one night only exhibition by photographer Michael Jurick at the ultra luxurious venue The Glasshouses.
The exhibition, titled Infrared, features a series of photographs from Jurick that showcases natural moments revealed through infrared photography. This one night only event was a collaboration with The Chosen Few – an elite collection of artists and designers in the event space. 6 of the photographs on display were complimented by artists from the collective to create a unique multimedia presentation.
The night featured enough rose to fill a swimming pool and tasty bites such as truffle grilled cheese, spinach/artichoke dip, and shrimp skewers. There was also a live cover band and of course stunning floor to ceiling views of the Hudson river – I mean with a name like The Glasshouses would you expect anything less?
We chatted with Michael about the exhibition:
The Knockturnal: So tell us a bit more about this particular exhibit
Jurick: Sure over the past 4 years I’ve been collecting a body of work of my travels to Wyoming, Montana, Albania, Israel and in my backyard here in NY. So if you look at my photographs I capture all my photographs in infrared – I remove the censor from the regular digital DSLR and replace it with an infrared censor so it renders black – the whites turn sheer white and it creates an alluring quality about them that’s sort of hyper real.
The Knockturnal: And how did you choose the locations where you shot?
Jurick: Those are bucket list places. Albania for example was recently turned democratic, it was under dictatorship for years and its drop dead gorgeous. Its affordable and insanely historical.
