When Luc Belaire France, an upscale champagne brand known for elegance and lifestyle, planned a new product release, they partnered with The Bogues Group to host an event activation that would resonate with a younger, sophisticated audience. The objective was to build hype around the launch, stimulate sales, and also align the experience with charitable impact.

The Challenge

Luc Belaire France faced several challenges as they prepared for their new champagne release:

• Engaging a younger demographic (women ages 24-43) — This audience demands not only quality, but experiences and stories. The event had to be more than just drinking champagne; it had to feel meaningful and shareable.
  
• Demonstrating authenticity and purpose — Younger consumers often care about the causes brands support. For the event to land, the nonprofit must be one that resonates with the community and adds credibility.
  
• Framing the event so it captures media & community interest — To drive visibility, it couldn’t be just a private launch; it needed to generate buzz, press interest, and social media engagement in a saturated lifestyle/BEVERAGE market.
  

The Bogues Group Approach

To overcome these challenges, The Bogues Group designed a holistic PR & event strategy:

1. Event Concept & Branding
   They created a themed activation called “Roses and Rosé”, pairing the elegance of the Luc Belaire brand with a lifestyle event aesthetic meant to appeal to the target demographic. The concept fused beauty (roses) with indulgence (rosé) in a way that felt fun, luxurious, and Instagram-worthy.
   
2. Pre-Event Messaging & Social Planning
   Bogues worked on consistent, on-brand creative direction for all communications leading up to the event — social media teasers, influencer invites, community outreach — to build anticipation and align expectations.
   
3. Stakeholder & Influencer Identification
   They identified key people to attend: influencers, community leaders, local women in the target age bracket, media personalities who cover lifestyle, luxury, and culture. Having these stakeholders present would help extend reach via their channels.
   
4. On-site Execution & Experience
   During the event, Bogues provided full on-site support to ensure everything ran smoothly: aesthetics, guest experience, ensuring the storytelling (about Luc Belaire’s product + its charitable component) was clear and felt natural.
   
5. Charitable Component Integration
   The event included a fundraising element for a local nonprofit — giving the attendees something deeper to connect with, beyond the luxury experience.
   

Results

The “Roses and Rosé” activation delivered strong outcomes:

• Social media engagement & following rose by about 5% over the weekend of the event.
  
• Media exposure: the event’s visibility helped Luc Belaire land a feature on The View.
  
• Sales & attendance: the event was sold out, and several bottles were purchased onsite.
  
• Charitable impact: The event raised US$1,000 for the selected local nonprofit.
  

• Luc Belaire successfully connected with their target audience in a way that blended luxury, lifestyle, and meaning. The “Roses and Rosé” event wasn’t just about launching a product — it became a memorable experience tied to cause.
  
• The branding and storytelling were consistent and cohesive (from pre event thru full execution), helping ensure media and guest messages aligned with Luc Belaire’s image.
  
• The integration of a nonprofit raised goodwill and helped the event feel more than just promotional — it built emotional resonance, which tends to drive loyalty and word-of-mouth.
  
• Strategically, the campaign’s success set up future opportunities: repeat events, broader media interest, greater social reach, and deeper engagement with consumers who care about both luxury and values.

The “Roses and Rosé” event marked a standout moment for Luc Belaire France — blending luxury, lifestyle, and purpose into one unforgettable experience.
