O
n March 20, 2010, GAB! Magazine hosted what has become known as “The Best Party in Bryn Athyn in March” at the Kistner Estate. Many of the biggest names in Bryn Athyn came out for the event, which benefited FeelGood—a non-profit dedicated to ending world hunger—and party-starved Bryn Athyn socialites. GAB! Gala attendees walked the red carpet, posed for the paparazzi, and danced the night away. Guests arrived to a barrage of flashing lights as paparazzi clamored to capture the scene. “I could see the flashing of the cameras from a mile away,” said latecomer John Odhner. The whole house was GAB-tastic with pink lighting, pink pillows, pink party cups, pink shag rugs, pink ping-pong balls, pink gift bags, and pink twinkle lights. Upstairs the open-air deck provided space for mingling, and downstairs guests partied to hoppin’ music beneath a disco ball. In honor of FeelGood—which raises money for the Hunger Project by selling grilled cheese sandwiches—the Gala menu included a selection of gourmet grilled cheeses. Guests kicked back in the FeelGood lounge, which had information about the non-profit and, of course, back issues of GAB! “This benefit event was NOT just about fashion, food, gossip, or who’s who on the celebrity scene,” said organizer Serena Sutton. “And we resent the implication that this event was organized solely to get photos for use in our magazine.” Photo-ops and fantastic raffle prizes rounded out the unbelievable evening. Lauren O’Sullivan helped secure the generous donation of a beautiful pair of diamond earrings, and the Hyatt Regency Penn’s Landing donated an overnight stay. Between ticket sales, raffle earnings, and donations the event raised $1,500 for FeelGood!

“Oh, there’s gonna be trouble!” – When Lynn Ellen King showed up in an identical dress
“Vivienne told me this was one of a kind,” complained Lynn Ellen. “I thought about ‘accidentally’ spilling my drink on Meg, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.” But the tables turned when Meg “clumsily” spilled her drink on Lynn Ellen. Luckily Lynn Ellen wears the same size as her daughters, so she slipped into Connie’s after party dress and danced the rest of the night away. 6 October 2010

Love and Marriage
CRISTA COOPER & IVAN ASPLUNDH WED ON MOST BEAUTIFUL DAY OF THE YEAR “Love between the two is obvious.” —Portia Cooper, sister
C
rista Cooper and Ivan Asplundh tied the knot September 18, “the most beautiful day of 2010,” according to Linus King, editor of the Bryn Athyn Farmer’s Almanac. Crista wore a simple yet stunning strapless dress from the J. Crew store in New York City. Her bridesmaids were also in J. Crew dresses, dyed to match Crista’s gorgeous blue eyes. The groom and his men kept it casual in flip-flops. Wedding guests came from all corners of the globe to attend the nuptials in Bryn Athyn. Attendees hailed from Florida, California, Michigan, Canada, England, Peru, and Turkey. The handsome couple was wed in Bryn Athyn Cathedral, where Director Jim Adams says Crista and Ivan now hold the record for Largest Number of Children in a Wedding Party. After the ceremony, over 300 guests flocked to the Philmont Country Club for the reception, where they danced the night away (thanks to father-of-the-groom Reed Asplundh’s instructions that the DJ not say a word).
SISTER, SISTER
Crista’s sisters Portia, Sacha, India, and Jency all adore Ivan and are thrilled to have him as their new brother. Amber, Megan, Maren, and Jaylen, Ivan’s sisters, say Crista has always felt like family, anyway!

FABULOUS FRIENDS! Crista was accompanied by glamorous bridesmaids: (clockwise from lower left) Melissa Kloc, Grace King, Sarah Bibler, Bianca King, Danielle King, Brittany Kuhl, and Bronwyn Latta-King.
NICE MOVES! They couldn’t compete with the kids during the first half of the evening, so after the underelevens hit the hay, Max Walko and Linus King made their move and tore up the dance floor. Ivan and Crista savored every moment.
GOING THE DISTANCE! “I risked
losing my visa to go to the wedding,” said Shiloh Silverman who travelled from Turkey to attend, “It was totally worth it.”
DANCE ‘TIL YOU DROP Paxton Cooper led the little ones on the dance floor until he realized it was past his bedtime.

Odhner beat out a slew of other high profile, single dudes including Justin Beiber and Shiloh Silverman. The former Starbucks barista and Sixth Sense extra, 25, pulled in a whopping 29% of the overall vote. Newly single Shiloh Silverman wasn’t too far behind with 21% of votes. Max Walko, now famous due to his wildly successful appearances on his sister-in-law’s reality show, Billionaire Yenta, reigned in 15% of the vote. Brent Schnarr snagged 11%, Justin Beiber received 5%, and the Hyatt Brothers (Seth, Derek, and Anders) rounded out the list with 3%, 2%, and 1% respectively. Odhner, whose long list of exes includes Taylor Swift and Daphne Oz, hasn’t been too lucky in the love department. He’s the only one of the O-Bros not yet hitched. “His lack of marital experience really comes out when we collaborate on love songs,” says bro Chad Odhner. Though he’s currently unattached, he’s been seen with broadway star Blake Austin and Dancing with the Stars contestant Bristol Palin, but their publicists deny any romantic goings on.

For her fall collection at the Savannah College of Art and Design Fashion Week, Alexis was Alexis Asplundh’s inspired by BFF Reagan Odhner, latest fashion line, who recently graduated from Military Bratz, U.S. Marines boot camp at the launched this fall. top of her class. “Or should I say uninspired,” countered Alexis. “I thought she should be court-marshaled for that frumpy uniform!” Alexis’ line, Military Bratz, combines better fit, brighter colors, and hotter footwear for an impressive overhaul of boring BDU’s. Some critics are resistant, saying she’s messing with a classic look. “What was she thinking?” asks celebrity stylist Colin Lutz.

I think it’s starting to stain the carpets,” admits Anna-Katrine. “I had to talk to Ethan about toning it down. I don’t want our girls to have impossible expectations for their husbands-to-be. What man can measure up to my Ethan?”

Hannah thought she had the “Fave Daughterin-Law” title in the bag. “I was the first wife—isn’t that enough?” said Hannah. It seems like Hannah knew that wasn’t enough. Hannah and Todd go to Kaye and Jay’s for dinner four nights every week, and that’s not counting double date nights! She also turned down a job with the Philadelphia Eagles so she could continue working at the Development Office—only two floors away from Kaye. “Hannah’s feeling the pressure,” says Lisa of newest contender Brittany. Not only is Brittany’s husband’s name almost identical to Kaye’s (favorite son, mayhap?), but Brittany is also expecting. And all the girls know Kaye LOVES babies. Lisa and Sarah were also quick to play the baby card, knowing Hannah has a baby phobia. “Lisa and I don’t live in town, so we’re not as much competition,” said Sarah. “Brittany and Kayne are close

REV. JOE O AND COACH SIZZLEMAN
PREACHIN’ IT! R Behind the scenes with R&B’s latest rap duo
Lori Odhner is proud of her husband’s success.
eligious rap duo John Odhner and Ray Silverman, known by their fellow rappers as Rev. Joe O and Coach Sizzleman, are the talk of the town: their debut album “Preach It” is dropping this winter. “It all began when Ray started beat boxing along with John and Lori songs,” Sizzleman’s wife Star remembers, “They realized this is how they could reach the next generation!” Fans have had to wait longer than expected while the pair worked through some drama with rapper hopeful Greg Rose, aka Airstrike. The tension was visible in the Doering Center where Sizzleman and Airstrike work on the same hall. After being cut from the Backstreet Boys and 98 Degrees, Airstrike had all but given up on his lifelong dream to be in a boy band. Unfortunately, he kept pushing for a rap rendition of the Gettysburg Address, but Rev. and Sizzleman put the kibosh on it.
“We didn’t want him watering down our work,” they defended. “The secularization of ‘Preach It’ is not happening on our watch!” Rev. Joe’s wife “WE WANT IN!” Lori was invited to sing back up, but is “at capacity” writing daily Marriage Moats and starring in The Real Housewives of Bryn Athyn. The album is being produced by Kai Bau-Madsen and will be available for purchase from BATS, the C&S Kai BauClub, and Club Shantor. The Madsen is preaching pair’s highly anticiproducing pated single, “Lil’ Lost Lamb,” the album. will be available on iTunes in November.

Since we both sing, we both play piano, and we both write our own songs, we each performed our own songs un-simultaneously, on different stages, in different venues, and in different states.”
