Its here!

Ladies and gentlemen! (and guys - please don't get scared off by the title...) Announcing the "NEW" theme for the 3rd annual Rendezvous English Country Dance Ball: 'Once Upon a Dream'. Skip the masks...instead, think whimsy, fantasy, mystery and excitement. You can be anything and anyone in the wildest scope of you imagination - providing that it is a character from a movie, book, or play...wigs and whatnot. period dramas. lacy cravats. broadswords. glamour and glitz.

YOU are the cast - the dance floor our stage, the story waiting to be written. Don't forget! This is also a very formal Ball, so the fancier, flouncier, more sophisticated and elegant the better. 

* Gentlemen. This does not exclude you. Lets see dashing heroes, pirate kings, wealthy mill-owners. 

* Ladies. Swishing hoop-skirts, courtly maidens, puffs, swirls, glitter...English Royalty, Southern Belles.

NOTE: please keep your costumes and formal wear within the modesty guidelines mentioned previously. Yes, formal wear is acceptable if you'd rather not wear a costume.

If you have any questions, please email Michaela: pnogirl@gmail.com

Rendezvous "trailer" - must see!

No need for any more convincing. You all want to come now, yes? ;)

Western theme night...

One of the best parts of the Ohio Winter Rendezvous was our theme night - 1920's-40's, right? Well! I'm super excited to announce that the theme for the Ohio Summer Rendezvous is...Western! B-)

So get your thinking caps on (er...cowboy hats? :P ) - and start planning your outfit. It can be anything from just a hat or a pair of boots, to chaps, bandannas, spurs...

Anyone getting excited yet??
- things are coming along, slowly but surely, thanks to a bit of brain storming this past weekend with my co-planners. B-)
