Diamond of the Season Ball

Bridgerton Inspired Event

Dearest readers, prepare yourselves for a most exquisite afternoon, inspired by the dazzling gatherings of Bridgerton. Step into the world of High Society, elegance, and romance as we invite you to an unforgettable event that promises to delight even the most discerning of hearts.

Join us at Prairie Hall for a proper etiquette lesson, splendid tea party and formal dinner that includes Garlic and herb chicken, au gratin potatoes, and green bean almondine, accompanied by era-appropriate music. After dining, you will be guided across a promenade, leading you to Hespell Deck for an evening of Regency ball room dance lessons provided by Young Dance Inc, and a chance to twirl beneath the stars with the ton. For those in society who are feeling a bit mystical, you will have the chance for a private fortune telling! Be sure to dress in your regency best, as Queen Charlotte will be sure to crown a Diamond of the Season, and the reward for this is said to be grand!
