I wanted to post a quick follow-up from last weekend’s Bridgerton Ball, hosted by the Country Dancers of Rochester at the Harmony House.
The ball attracted fans of English country dances in the style of the popular Bridgerton TV mini-series. The music was delightful, the costumes were beautiful, and the dancing was divine. There was a nice turnout, especially given this was a first-time event.
Ball organizer Lisa Brown of the Country Dancers of Rochester especially enjoyed the venue.
“Harmony House is a great resource for the Webster community,” she said. “It’s a wonderful venue for a dance event because it has a large ballroom with a wooden floor and air conditioning. We loved having our Bridgerton Ball there.”
Some RIT students who heard about the event attended and took some beautiful photos, several of which I’d like to share with you today.
If these photos pique your interest and you’d like to learn how to do this kind of dancing, you’re invited to join the Country Dancers of Rochester for their regular Sunday gatherings. They meet Sunday evenings at 6:30 p.m. in Brighton at the First Baptist Church, 175 Allens Creek Rd. Beginners are welcome, dancers wear modern clothing and no partner is necessary. Cost is $10.
Here are several other photos from the evening, taken by Evie Linantud:
