About this event

  • 3 hours

This event is brought to you by Union Cemetery, Johnnie Raven, and Lady Faye. Join us for a divine evening of frivolity and melancholy. Amongst the rows of stones we'll dine on delights and sip the loveliest of teas. Dress is your finest garb or simply come as you are. This is a night of tales, music, and fantasy.

One of the stars for the evening will be the foodloveling crafted by Lady Faye. A menagerie of delectable beauties. Savory and sweet alike. Things to make your pallet come to life. Morsels to savor. As well as beautiful to the eye. These treats will be a delight for the senses.

The tables will be a showcase of shapes, colors, lights, everything you can imagine. We're bringing a fantasy world to life! Something truly special to share with all of you.

The eye will also be drawn to a place specifically designed with all of you in mind. A sparkling, twinkling, whimsical area to take photos to remember this fanciful night. But don't stop there.

Music to tickle the ears all evening long will be provided by your host, Johnnie Raven. And what's that? There's more? Yes. He will conclude the evening with a performance of The Raven by none other than Edgar Allan Poe.

Let's not forget, of course there will be tea. Different flavors and blends to sample and indulge in. We have a measure of teapots, but we do encourage you to bring your own teacup to this special evening. Bring a favorite, a beloved, the one that brings you joy just by taking it off the shelf.

With the lavish setup, you may need to step away and seek a moment of solitude. We support you and suggest you bring a chair or blanket to enjoy your tea away from the hubbub. But of course we implore you to make new friends and acquaintances this evening and celebrate the night with us.

Lastly, we do ask attendees to be ages 15 and up for this auspicious occasion. As the event is in the evening time.

We look forward to it.
