Ghastly Galentine: NIGHT BLOOM, a nighttime tea and gothic bouquet party

This Ghastly Galentine, join us for Night Bloom, a nighttime tea party steeped in petals and bittersweet charm. Bathed in candlelight at historic Carroll Mansion, guests will craft gothic bouquets with Bel Fleur Lakay, who will guide you through the language of flowers with a gothic, Poe-inspired twist. VIP upgrade to gothic arrangement in glass vase plus mystery gift and bonus raffle ticket.

Love alone, mourn a lost Lenore, or walk with mates of shared fate.
This is your refuge from the saccharine glow of Valentine’s Day. Guests will sip tea and eat cake as they wander a haunted mansion. Poetry and chamber music abound as guests indulge in eerie delights and decadent desserts. Then it's time to give yourself all the flowers with Bel Fleur Lakay as she guides you in creating your own gothic bouquet.
Each ticket includes tea, light refreshment, and your own bouquet of fresh stems to keep, exchange or offer to the void.
Dress is funereal florals, romantic ruffles, or full mourning regalia.
Black lace, cameos, corsets.... whatever haunts your closet, come draped in your most enchanting attire for a night of poetic gloom and floral mischief. Bring your ghoul gang, or arrive solo, gloriously so—and celebrate love in all its beautifully tragic forms.

Proceeds benefit The Edgar Allan Poe House & Museum and Carroll Museums.
Slip into your finest dark attire and join us in a delightfully spooky mansion for a night of Gothic elegance.
