 
            Welcome to my blog. I document my faith journey, to help you commit to yours. Jesus cares about your dreams, your relationships, your hopes, and your future. Happy reading!
My dearest esteemed guest,
It is with the utmost delight (and perhaps a touch of mischief) that I welcome you to the most anticipated affair of the season — a grand celebration in honor of one’s thirtieth year upon this earth. Herein, you shall discover all particulars necessary to secure your place amongst society’s finest: where to be, when to arrive, and precisely how dazzling one ought to appear.
Pray, read on with care — for one would simply perish to arrive unprepared for an evening so splendidly scandalous.
It is with immense delight (and just a whisper of enchantment) that you are cordially invited to celebrate the momentous occasion of one’s thirtieth year upon this Earth. Prepare for an evening where Regency elegance meets a hint of magical fantasy — think glittering ball gowns, moonlit mischief, and a touch of fairy-tale wonder.
Mark your calendars with haste!
Friday, the 7th of February, 2025 shall be the night when all of society gathers to raise a glass (or several) in honor of this most splendid milestone. Festivities shall commence at seven o’clock in the evening and continue until propriety—or lack thereof—insists we retire.
The soirée shall unfold amidst the charm and glamour of Atlanta, Georgia — exact venue to be revealed once the arrangements are suitably divine. (Patience, dear guest, perfection cannot be rushed.)
One’s entrance should be nothing short of marvelous.
The theme, dear guest, is “Regency with a Touch of Magic.”
Picture yourself stepping into a glittering ballroom where elegance meets enchantment — ball gowns, silken gloves, sparkling tiaras, and the faintest nods to the fantastical.
Gentlemen, a well-tailored ensemble never goes amiss; a hint of whimsy, however subtle, will make the fair folk take note.
Links for consideration and inspiration:
The Ladies may consider something like this, this, this or this. 
And their Suitors, attire as this, this or if quite unabashed, this.
For those arriving from afar, arrangements shall be made known as the date approaches—recommendations for nearby inns (or hotels, as the moderns say) will be provided for your ease and comfort.
Should you be flying in, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport awaits, ever bustling, ever accommodating to guests of fine taste.
Expect lively company, delightful libations, music to make even Lady Whistledown abandon her quill, and perhaps a surprise or two (for what is a celebration without a touch of intrigue?).
Pray, confirm your attendance posthaste so the hosts may ensure sufficient champagne and scandal to go around.
Kindly RSVP by December 20, 2025.
You host cannot express enough gratitude for the fortuitous gift you have been to her this year, but she hopes that this evening can begin to express her good cheer. So, polish your manners, ready your finest glass, and prepare for a night where elegance meets mischief under the Atlanta stars.
