Guests will enjoy a wickedly tempting two course menu, featuring dessert from our principal sponsor, Movenpick and accompanied by Hotel du Vin Firstland Vineyards Methode Traditionelle. The owners of the hottest purses and most creative clutches can win luxurious prizes. There are opportunities as well to take part in the tombola, silent auction and raffle items.
