I love anything Jane Austen, her books, movies about her books, the Regency clothes, English Country Dancing, scones, clotted cream, & tea, etc. So when there's a place that combines them all, you can count on me being there!
Years ago, I had gone to the Jane Austen Evening, twice. It was so much fun as you get to dress up, dance, and pretend like you are in a completely different place and time.
Jeremiah knows my love of Regency and he agreed to go with me this year! Now, the only catch was, he wanted to have an appropriate outfit, but definitely not one that looked home-made or costumey! But not only did he want an appropriate Regency outfit, he wanted a Naval Officer's Uniform. So I had my work cut out for me!
I started back in October getting things ready for the event in January. It took many, many hours at the cutting and sewing table to get his outfit to look just right and it all paid off because his outfit was a hit!
We had a wonderful time dancing and playing our parts during the evening. Here are some pictures of the event:
