About this Event
🕯️ Candlelight & Wintergreens
A Bring Your Own Bubbly Festive Wreath-Making Evening
Nuair a thagann an geimhreadh, lasaimid solas agus cruthaímid áilleacht.
When winter arrives, we kindle light and create beauty.
As dusk settles over the Festina Lente Walled Garden and the first stars begin to appear, join us for a magical evening of festive wreath making inspired by winter skies, candlelight, and the enduring beauty of evergreens.
This intimate seasonal gathering offers a chance to pause amidst the festive bustle and embrace the quieter rhythms of winter. Beginning beneath the open sky and continuing into a warm candlelit setting, you'll create a handcrafted wreath using fresh wintergreens and natural botanical materials while enjoying festive treats, good company, and your favourite bubbly in a welcoming atmosphere of creativity and celebration.
🌿 The Experience
⭐ Starlight Attunement in the Garden
Begin the evening outdoors with a gentle star-inspired warm-up beneath the winter sky. Through simple movement, breath, and a moment of stargazing, we'll attune to the season, the garden, and the quiet beauty of the night before gathering to create.
🕯️ A Warm Winter Welcome
Step into a cosy candlelit space where evergreen fragrances, soft lighting, and festive touches create an atmosphere perfect for making and gathering.
🎄 Create Your Festive Wreath
Using fresh wintergreens, seasonal foliage, and natural decorative elements, you'll learn simple techniques to craft a beautiful wreath that reflects your own style and celebrates the abundance of the season.
Choose the design that speaks to you:
The One-Tier Wreath
Refined and timeless, perfect for welcoming guests at your front door or bringing a touch of natural festive beauty into your home.
The Two-Tier Wreath
Lush, abundant, and striking. Ideal as a statement wreath or styled as a unique festive table centrepiece for seasonal gatherings.
✨ Botanical Finishing Touches
Before you leave, your wreath will receive a final blessing of our signature Star Essence Mist, a fragrant botanical spray inspired by the beauty, balance, and wonder of winter.
🥂 Bring Your Own Bubbly
Bring along your favourite bubbly, prosecco, wine, or festive seasonal drink and settle into an evening of creativity, conversation, and seasonal cheer. We'll provide the glassware, festive treats, and candlelit atmosphere.
