What to Expect
Join us on March 21st for an immersive event. Guests will take on the role of members of 19th-century Society attending the wedding of a human matchmaker and a fae dance instructor, but all is not as it seems and there maybe those who object to this union. Will you be able to help these two love birds overcome the obstacles?
Guests will enjoy a bountiful appetizer buffet and a glorious ball. You can play as a character of fae or human origin you create, or come as yourself.
Inspired by media like Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Bridgerton, and Labyrinth, this is sure to be an evening to remember! All levels of experience and costuming are welcome!
Period-piece Aesthetics, Inclusive Values
While we want you to enjoy the aesthetics of 19th century costumes and courtly drama, we want to be inclusive of people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, races, abilities, orientations, genders, ages, relationship statuses, and other protected statuses. For this reason, our setting is one in which all identities are accepted.
Where does the scandal come from, then? Simple, it’s status.
For example: It might be acceptable in the eyes of Society for a married Viscount to date outside of his open marriage, but if the other man he is dating has a reputation of being a rake? Well… that’s cause for gossip!
