I wanted to put up the pics I took, but I'll probably have another post tomorrow with some pics from my Mom's camera that I didn't have time to look at yet.
Anyway,

Two tables played whist (like Hearts with partners) and one played Speculation:

Kat was convalescing and not able to join us in person, but she dressed up in a regency gown and tiara and joined us via Skype or Facetime!

Me and Kat - she "played" whist with us for a while and then we took her on a tour of Jenny-Rose's new sewing room. You can almost make out my little moon/arrow regency comb!

So, more pics to come when I go through the others!
The party looks wonderful! The outfits are amazing! And I love how the modern technology fitted in with the old, with your friend playing whist via skype! I will have to have a historically themed party myself sometime! It's a shame all my friends live so far away!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was really terrific that the technology worked so well! And it was a funny juxtaposition with the period stuff!
DeleteWell, maybe you can throw a Skype part with your friends! :-)
Oh, that looks great - so many beautiful dresses!! It seems you all had a wonderful evening!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was really fun!
DeleteWhat a lovely event! I love that your friend Skyped in!
ReplyDeleteIt was really fun! And we're glad she was able to join us through the wonders of technology!
