Guests gathered for the third annual Best Buddies Gala at the stunning Water Mill estate of Anne Hearst and Jay McInerney. Co-chairs included Tatiana and Campion Platt, Johan de Nysschen, Alina and Anthony Shriver, and Lydia and Rudy Touzet—all dedicated to establishing a volunteer movement for people with developmental disabilities.

The event, presented by Audi, kicked off with a Southeast Asian-themed cocktail hour, which was followed by a formal gourmet dinner and live entertainment by Around Town. Guests included Debbie Bancroft, John Cochran, Benjamin Doller, Holidae Hayes and Matt Gavin, Frank Cilione, Amanda Hearst, Joanna Goldenstein, and Buddy Ambassador Brett Banford. This happening was nothing short of eventful— all for the buds!
