We watched the forecast all week leading up to our Anne of Green Gables Picnic. Rain. Rain. Rain.

It was supposed to rain. It was a good thing we'd rented a picnic shelter for the occasion, so we would have some protection from the precipitation, but really, who wants to picnic in the rain??
Finally, the night before the picnic, there was a ray of hope - the rain was supposed to be done by late morning, and our picnic was scheduled for early afternoon. Maybe we'd have the perfect sun-shiny picnic after all!

By the time I'd arrived at the picnic location (late, thanks to my flurry of baking and house cleaning for company that morning. . . It's a good thing my co-planner is a timely person!) the rain was gone - and the sun was just starting to peak through the clouds!

Our first vendor was already there and set up - The Book Nook Bread Co. - with the most delightfully on-theme booth!

(And yummy bread too of course!)

Soon other guests began arriving. . .

Our second vendor for the occasion was Ptera Jewelry - a booth full of pretty sparkly things to admire!

As people began filtering in, I enjoyed greeting everyone - and inviting them to try some of the Raspberry Cordial I'd made that morning!

It was great fun seeing what everyone had chosen to wear for the picnic.

Almost everyone had worn a hat!

And others (like me!) decorated their hats specifically for the occasion!

And the company was the best part!

As this was our very first event, there had been a little worry in the back of my mind.

There is something wonderful about getting together with people who have similar interests to yourself - which is pretty much the entire reason why my friends and I decided to start hosting fantasy events!
And. . . We have a YULE BALL coming up in January! Tickets are on sale now for this!! (our other upcoming ticketed events are already sold out, so if you're interested in coming to the Yule Ball, I recommend buying your tickets ASAP!)
Info on all of our events can be found on our website, our Instagram, and our Facebook page.
I'd love to see you at some of our future events!

OOoo that Yule Ball looks lovely!! If I lived anywhere near I'd have snapped up tickets by now. I'm so glad your picnic was a success; I'd love to go to something like that anytime! It's good to see your events are selling out so nicely. It's such a great idea and I'm so glad you are doing it!
