Two weeks ago we hosted our 6th Annual Bloody Mary Festival benefitting Habitat for Humanity – Walton County and welcomed 800 guests to the center for a *Bloody* good time! The fall afternoon featured 17 local restaurants, bars, and catering companies, each serving their take on the classic Bloody Mary, plus live music, cigars, gourmet bites, champagne, boozy popsicles, a DJ, an interactive photo booth, and much more!

The 6th Annual Bloody Mary festival featured the area’s finest restaurants, bars, and catering companies including Bijoux Restaurant + Spirits, Jackacuda’s Seafood and Sushi, Stinky’s Fish Camp, Bitterroot, Signature Catering, La Crema, Local Catch, Emeril’s Coastal, Alys Beach, The Perfect Pig, Camille’s, The Henderson, Old Florida Fish House, The Beach House, Ovide, Cannery Lane Cantina, The Chefs Table Catering Company, and The Grove, each serving their take on the classic Bloody Mary made with Distillery 98’s Dune Laker Vodka.

DJ Dad was keeping the Courtyard alive with upbeat music while TKO and Uncle Duke played on the Main Stage to entertain those on the Grand Lawn. The interactive Epic Photo Co. Photo Booth, sponsored by Legendary Marine, was once again a huge hit for everyone wanting to commemorate the fall event! Shore Thing Cigars were also handing out some of their signature cigars while Idyll Hounds Brewing Company supplied cold craft brews.
