Last month, my husband took me on an extra special date night. An Enchanted Garden Ball. The event was hosted by a dress company, JessaKae. It took place at a local event venue and vineyard, La Caille.
I wore a JessaKae dress, the Highgrove. I felt like a princess from one of my stories! I loved seeing everyone so dressed up. Even the men. There were fabulous dresses and suits, some people in costumes and masks. I wore a tiara. My husband wore a renaissance pirate shirt.
There were carriage rides, performers, and so so many photo opportunities. It was a fabulous date night, and felt very in line with Briarbook Lane and the Tales of Tessagonia.
