Details to Follow
Dear Inner Circle,
I’m delighted to invite you and your husband or significant other to join us for a very special Inner Circle experience surrounding the Unified Kentucky Derby Party on May 2.
We will be gathering as a Socialites Club table, creating a fun, connected, and elevated experience together. While each couple will purchase their own tickets, I will be coordinating and hosting the table so we can enjoy the event as one beautiful group.
To make it even more festive, you’re also invited to a Hat Designing Party on
April 19 at Moss Custom Hat Bar. This will be a relaxed, creative afternoon where we can design our Derby hats together, sip, socialize, and get into the spirit of the celebration.
Event Details at a Glance:
Hat Designing Party: April 19 | Moss Custom Hat Bar
Unified Kentucky Derby Party: May 2 | Socialites Club Table
Husbands welcome
Tickets purchased individually; table hosted by me
Please let me know if you’d like to be included at the table and join us for the hat party so I can plan accordingly.
I can’t wait to celebrate Derby season with this incredible circle of people.
A Quiet Afternoon at The Brown Palace
An Inner Circle Invitation
There are days meant for sparkle—and days meant for serenity. This is the latter.
Join us for an elegant escape to The Brown Palace Hotel for their iconic Afternoon Tea, where time slows, voices soften, and refinement reigns.
We’ll arrive together aboard our NOCO Party Bus, transformed for the day with soft lighting, gentle music, and a discreet sip of bubbly—nothing loud, nothing rushed. Just comfort, conversation, and the luxury of being cared for.
At the Palace, we’ll settle into a hushed, gracious setting to enjoy delicate savories, exquisite pastries, and perfectly poured tea—an experience steeped in tradition and quiet sophistication. This is a day of peace, beauty, and unhurried pleasure, created exclusively for our Inner Circle.
If your spirit leans more wild and celebratory, you’ll want to save your sparkle for December 5 with the younger group.
This afternoon, however, is all about calm elegance—soft lights, soft music, and a perfectly lovely paus
I’ll send this out monthly—or whenever there’s a really good movie worth leaving the house for. We’ll meet for dinner, see a movie, and call it what it is: just for fun.
