EAST HAMPTON, NY — Marina St Barth, the resort wear boutique known for bringing the effortless elegance of Saint Barthélemy to the Hamptons, opened its East Hampton location for an exclusive summer gathering to celebrate the launch of Wonder Shuffle—a new travel and lifestyle platform founded by journalist Dan Kadison and global travel executive Si-Yeon Kim.
Held on a golden Hamptons afternoon, the launch event drew a discerning crowd of tastemakers, entrepreneurs, and longtime Marina clients, all eager to discover the curated charm behind Wonder Shuffle. With a concept rooted in surprise, delight, and purposeful exploration, Wonder Shuffle invites modern travelers to uncover hidden gems in New York City and the Hamptons through collectible cards, animated journeys, and customizable itineraries.
Guests mingled amid racks of Marina St Barth’s signature summer fashions and exclusive handbag collaborations by Alexander by Design, sipping artisan cocktails from BIATCH® Tequila, Wainscott Main Wine & Spirits, Sagaponack Farm Distillery, and Kidd Squid Brewing Co. The boutique, transformed into a social salon for the occasion, offered both aesthetic inspiration and immersive storytelling—a reflection of the Wonder Shuffle ethos.
“We wanted to create something that feels intimate and spontaneous—like the perfect travel recommendation whispered to you by a local friend,” said co-founder Si-Yeon Kim, whose experience at American Express Global Business Travel helped shape the platform’s curated sensibility.
Notable guests included: “Aunt” Sue Hrib, Leesa Rowland, Christina Isaly, Nick Kraus, Denise & Mark Walsh, Gina Gibney, Pamela van Zandt, Stephen & Pauline White, Yavanna & Rob Gettling, Shana Novak, Christian & Caitlin Bautista, Jenny Dwork, and many others from the local art, fashion, and finance scenes.
