Jazzy Johnz Toasts to the Coasts - Roaring 20s Style

Friday evening, October 20th, was a night to remember, as Gulf Coast residents ventured to Pass Christian, MS for an elegant fundraiser benefiting Coast Episcopal School.  The theme of this year's Toast to the Coast fundraiser was the Roaring 20s- Gatsby Style. So, of course, Tim and I dolled ourselves up for the occasion.

A silent auction, boasting 100+ items earned the school thousands in donation profits. One of the items was even a pro football, autographed the big game quarterback hero himself, Mr. Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints! 

​Renowned chefs and popular restaurants from all over the Gulf Coast set up for this event to share their most popular and tasty bites.

My personal favorite was the Lollipop steak from The Rackhouse Steak & Spirits, which was placed on top of a flavorful pesto sauce then drizzled with creamy goat cheese. Um, what? I just about died and went to heaven.

​Next in line of my favs were, of course, the charbroiled oysters from Half Shell Oyster House. Holy moly I could eat those things for breakfast!

Party goers danced the night away with the help of a live band. Tired dancers had the chance of taking a quick break on the adjoining white couches, which tied in perfectly with the sparking chandelier lighting hanging in the nearby ancient oak trees. 

Our Trio and Septet got some pretty great use as well! It was great to hear all the feedback from the guests. I overheard one wife tell her husband how the trailer bathroom was actually nicer than the restroom they had at home. Wow! As an owner who stood silent in the moment, it was pretty rewarding to hear such a great compliment. 

My sister-in-law and I made use of our time in the Septet restroom trailer by taking....you guessed it! Selfies! I admit, this was my first selfie experience in the Jazzy Johnz, but thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless. ​ We both laughed realizing how common it is to stare at yourself on the phone when taking a mirror selfie! 

We also raved about the cusom-made bathroom signs the Toast to the Coast team designed themselves for the men and women's units: Old Sports & Doll Faces! They were perfect!

Overall, I would say the evening was a success! Children will benefit from all monies earned and I had a great opportunity to cater to my old soul by bringing out my inner formal flapper girl.  LOL!

Huge thanks to Jennie and her team for trusting us with this event this year. Thank you Toast to the Coast!

Cheers!
