Sip n Shop Event
Sandestin La Ciel Ballroom
Friday, April 4, 2014 11am - 3pm
The 4th Annual Sip n Shop event is set to be a fabulous day of shopping, eating, and sipping! As a part of the Chi Chi Miguel Throwdown weekend on April 4 and 5, Sip n Shop brings together local vendors, winemakers, and chefs in an effort to raise money and awareness for Gulf Coast Charities. It has raised over $1.6 million since 2011 for Gulf Coast charities, one of them being Alaqua Animal Refuge, and last year alone, the Throwdown raised over $826,000.
Sip n Shop is held Friday, the day before the cook-off and brings together wine makers, food, and shopping. This year, Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort is a main sponsor of the event, which is being held in the bay-front La Ciel ballroom from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. Local designers and vendors bring the shopping to the participants as they sip champagne and wine, enjoy a fashion show by local life guards, and a specially prepared three course meal by Chef Jay Kirwin, Executive Chef at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort.
All proceeds benefit the abused, neglected, and abandoned animals cared for by Alaqua Animal Refuge.
We are currently seeking silent auction items for the Sip and Shop Event.
