Magic hits the runway
On September 19th, 2019, Avalon teamed up with Bert’s Big Adventure for fall’s most magical evening! The fifth annual Fall Fashion Benefit featured delicious tastings from Avalon’s renowned eateries followed by a fantastic fashion show starring Bert’s Big Adventure kiddos and Atlanta celebrities with clothing provided by Avalon’s stylish retailers. We were challenged to top the $70,000 that was raised at the 2018 event, and thanks to the extreme generosity of so many kind people, we were able to raise nearly $75,000 for Bert’s Big Adventure!
A HUGE thank you to the Bert’sBig Adventure community, the amazing folks in Awesome Alpharetta and all of Atlanta for coming out in support of the amazing Bert’s Big Adventure kids! We had a total blast from the cocktail reception to the runway show to the VIP after-party at The Hotel at Avalon, Autograph Collection.
Thank you so much to our photographers, DASH Photography and Rafterman, and our videographer, Masters of Visual Arts. We also want to thank our incredible auctioneer, Dean Crownover!
We couldn’t do it without our amazing sponsors, Anderson Center for Hair & Aesthetics, Modern Obstetrics + Gynecology, Scout and Molly’s Boutique, AmeriPark, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, Maker’s 46, Sierra Nevada, Wilson Lewis, Veranda at Avalon, The Woodhouse Day Spa, Ross Moore II, P.C., Zander Insurance, Nothing Bundt Cakes, OneSource Graphics, Inc., Van Pappas at Oxygen Financial and Modern Luxury!
We are so thankful for the celebrity models who strutted down the catwalk and the evening’s amazing emcees, Christi Paul and Nikky Williams. Last but not least, thank you to all of the amazing experience makers at Avalon and everyone working tirelessly behind the scenes: Cayley Mullen, Lauren Ness, Nina DeCristofano, Mallory Forrester, Randi Layne, Q997 and so many more!
