In addition to our incredible auction, Unbridled Eve is proud to offer two exclusive raffles that deliver unforgettable experiences while supporting an amazing cause. 

The first raffle features a truly breathtaking prize: an 18K yellow gold, marquise diamond ring valued at $21,000. This stunning, handcrafted Verragio design includes a 5.57-carat center diamond with exceptional detail and brilliance, making it a one-of-a-kind piece for someone special. The Genesis Diamonds Raffle will be drawn at the Genesis Diamonds gallery on May 18th. 

Our second raffle offers one of the most sought-after experiences in Louisville: a private luxury suite for Thunder Over Louisville 2027. The winner will enjoy an incredible evening with up to 35 guests, complete with catering, VIP access, and one of the best views of the city’s iconic fireworks show. The Thunder Over Louisville raffle will be drawn on June 30th. 

Each raffle is limited to just 250 tickets at $100 each, giving participants excellent odds at winning a truly extraordinary prize. Whether you are drawn to timeless luxury or an unforgettable shared experience, these raffles offer something special for everyone. 

Best of all, every ticket purchased helps support the mission of the Unbridled Charitable Foundation. 

Unbridled Eve is known for delivering truly exceptional auctions, and this year is no different. One of the highlights of our live auction is a custom-designed guitar paired with a private lesson from Richie Sambora himself, creating a once-in-a-lifetime experience for any music fan. Another surprise live auction item will be revealed the night of the event. 

Our silent auction is packed with incredible offerings, including exclusive experiences, luxury goods, and plenty of bourbon for enthusiasts. Highlights include a VIP Baltimore Ravens game day package featuring suite tickets, sideline access, airfare, and a hotel stay, as well as the chance to own a full private barrel of bourbon, complete with a custom label and over 180 bottles to enjoy or share. 

For those looking for something truly unique, you’ll also find a handcrafted Bridleberry saddle made from Italian leather, and a fun, hands-on culinary experience with Big Nita’s Cheesecakes, where you can step into the kitchen and create your own signature dessert. 

Whether you are looking to support an amazing cause or take home something unforgettable, the Unbridled Eve Auction offers the perfect opportunity to do both.
