Venues can add an additional layer of excitement by incorporating cameos from celebrities like Jon Bon Jovi of the award-winning Hampton Water Rosé. These appearances are made possible through an exclusive partnership with Proto, the world’s first holographic communications platform. During the cameo, Bon Jovi and his son and business partner, Jesse Bongiovi, will share the fascinating history of rosé, walk guests through the story of Hampton Water, and provide insight into what makes their wine label an award-winning sensation.
