PROXY WELLNESS UNVEILS REFRESHED PACKAGING AT MEMENTO GALLERY

Proxy Wellness gathered Atlanta’s community at Memento for a two-part celebration marking the unveiling of the brand’s refreshed packaging and renewed mission. Founded by mental health advocate and CEO Roxanne Kaiser, Proxy’s clean-label gummy supplements are designed to support stress relief, overwhelm, and everyday calm—now presented in packaging that more clearly reflects the brand’s purpose.

Ahead of the public celebration, Proxy hosted an intimate pre-event dinner honoring a select group of Atlanta wellness voices for a candid conversation around mental health, advocacy, and the evolving role of wellness in everyday life. The dinner included guests such as Melissa Tovar, Bailey Otto (founder of Girls Who Run), Jacob Abrams Cohen, Jackson Ford (founder of Roeme), Kelly Chase, and others shaping the local wellness space. Design House Weddings and Events were responsible for the tablescapes.

The evening then transitioned into a larger unveiling party that fully activated the space at Memento Gallery. Guests mingled throughout immersive brand moments featuring gummy tastings, a full bar, creative product displays, and photo opportunities, while cookies and popcorn were passed. Thoughtful takeaway bags rounded out the experience, celebrating a meaningful next chapter for Proxy Wellness. While the formulations remain unchanged, the updated packaging—designed by graphic designer Dara Paryas—introduces a refined visual identity rooted in calm and intentionality.
