Dearest Reader,

You are cordially invited to step into an alternate world of Regency elegance at the illustrious Wadsworth Mansion at Long Hill in Middletown, Connecticut, for an enchanting afternoon of royalty, revelry, and just a touch of mischief.

Join us on May 17th, 2026, from 1 PM to 5 PM, as we gather for an afternoon of charm, amusement, and performances worthy of royal notice.

We begin the afternoon with tea and dainties within the mansion’s halls. Thereafter, as the season’s air beckons, guests will spill out onto the verdant lawn. Bring forth your finest picnic baskets, take your rest among fellow revelers, join in on the activities and entertainment, or procure delights and wares as you promenade the market stalls.

Delight in the sounds of live period-inspired music, engage in a spirited game of croquet or perhaps a daring match of giant chess, and meander through a market filled with wares most exquisite. Performers, curiosities, and entertainments await—each hoping to impress the Queen and perhaps earn a whisper of her approval.

Should you wish to capture the moment, our thoughtfully curated photo zones await your presence, perfect for immortalizing the day’s beauty (and your most fashionable finery).

Tickets are required for this exclusive gathering, so do not delay in securing your place. Don your Regency-inspired attire and join us for an afternoon filled with wit, wonder, and a playful spin on society’s most delightful amusements.

We do hope to see you there, dear friend.

Yours most sincerely,
Lady Throwsdaw
