5 Nights Of Holiday Magic Coming To Bonnet House

By Bonnet House Blog No Comments

It may be hard to believe, but the holiday season is right around the corner! With all of the shopping, baking, decorating, cleaning, and endless list of to-dos, it can be easy to get lost in the shuffle and forget to celebrate such a special time of year. As we grow up, we sometimes need a little help to remember that there really is magic in the holiday season, and it’s important to take time to experience that special feeling of wonder and joy that comes with the holiday season.

Here at Bonnet House, we invite guests to celebrate 5 Nights Of Holiday Magic as our estate is transformed from a tropical paradise to a whimsical wonderland! See the Main House and grounds lit up and sparkling during this festive celebration. The magic kicks off on Friday, December 6th with our annual Holiday Magic Soirée, followed by Whimsical Wonderland, an evening for families on December 7th, and our Evening Experiences on December 11th, 12th & 13th with live music and libations each night.

Bonnet House will also be open for self-guided tours with exciting performances from talented artists including the Spotlight Carolers, Gin & Jazz, Elvis, and many more. Plus, don’t miss special visits from Santa Claus and the delightful characters from “POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance” with surprises from their new holiday television special.

These popular festive nights are meant to encourage individuals and families to step back into a time where one could really slow down during the holiday season and take time to experience the joys of togetherness and generosity. It is no coincidence that these events also serve as our largest fundraiser of the entire year. With the help of our fabulous team of volunteer designers, our estate will be decorated with a stunning variety of trees, wreaths, and centerpieces. These pieces will be available for purchase, and 100% of the proceeds will directly benefit the preservation of the Bonnet House estate.

We hope that you and your loved ones will be able to enjoy our estate during this special time of year. You really are never too old to experience the magic and whimsy of the holiday season. To learn more about these events, and to purchase tickets, click here.

Decorating For The Holidays

By Bonnet House Blog No Comments

‘Tis the season…for holiday decorations, that is! While we know that the holiday season holds a deep meaning for individuals of all backgrounds, this time of year just wouldn’t be the same without all the fabulous holiday decor. Here at Bonnet House, we love seeing the ways in which people celebrate and decorate for the holidays each year. To ring in the holiday season, and help others get into the festive spirit, we are announcing a few unique opportunities for individuals and families to experience the magic of the holiday season together.

To kick off holiday celebrations at Bonnet House, we’ll be hosting our popular annual Holiday Magic Soiree on December 2nd, 2022 from 7:00pm – 10:00pm. The Main House and grounds will be lit up and sparkling all night. All of the trees, wreaths, and centerpieces throughout the house will also be lit and designed to delight.

This Holiday Soiree will include a full bar, catered dining by Alexander Event Catering, and live music with Kelly Dow and Julia Wadsworth. Guests will also have the opportunity to meet POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance, along with new characters from the award-winning storybook! This will be followed by an exclusive preview performance from the new POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance musical pre-Broadway.

There are so many creative ways to decorate for the holidays, and it can be a challenge to stay up-to-date with all the trends. To help you put together unique holiday arrangements, Bonnet House will also be hosting two Holiday Floral Arranging Classes on December 7th and 8th 2022 from 5:00pm – 6:00pm.

Attendees will learn how to create their very own holiday arrangement with Victoria Park Flower Studio on the beautiful Bonnet House Veranda. The class is limited to just 25 participants and is $55 per person. The fee includes a self-guided tour of the house from 6:00-8:00 pm where you can decide on your favorite trees, wreaths, and centerpieces designed by local artists. There will also be live music and libations available each night!

If you are unable to attend or participate in any of our special holiday events this year, you can still come by Bonnet House any day of the week from 11am – 4pm and enjoy the beautiful winter foliage that can be found throughout the estate and gardens.

We hope to see you at one of our special events this year! To learn more about our holiday activities, and decorative events, click here.
