Thank you so much to everyone who attended our 2019 Melbourne Cup Luncheon!
We hope you had as much of a fantastic day as we did watching the races, and enjoying the food, games and fashion show. All of our guests were so wonderfully dressed (as you can see) that it was difficult for our judges to pick out winners for our best dressed awards! It was our largest attendance ever for our Melbourne Cup function and we can’t wait to see everyone back again for next year’s race day.
We’d also like to thank event sponsors Yachtshare, Ebb+Flow, Moet & Chandon, Oatley Wines, and Workshop Hub for their generous prize donations to the hilarious ‘funny money’ auction that closed out the afternoon.
If you would like higher resolution, unwatermarked copies of any of these photos please email Ryan at publications@rqys.com.au with the photo number and we’d be more than happy to send them to you at no cost.
