important NOTE from Moira
Oh, lovely friends and family, what a treat awaits us all at the resplendent Hawkesdene Estate! Eric and I are absolutely thrilled to welcome you to this enchanting haven, nestled amidst glorious landscapes, elegant accommodations, and a veritable feast for the eyes and spirit alike. With sweeping views, miles of nature trails, and splendidly appointed cottages, this is precisely why we chose Hawkesdene for our gathering.
​
A small note, darlings: while you will all be ensconced in luxurious shared cottages, do bear in mind that some quarters include shared bathrooms and, possibly, a sleep sofa. We are not able to place anyone in a private space without shared occupancy. That being said, privacy is exchanged for the delight of togetherness! The estate’s superb design and sumptuous interiors are certain to impress even the most discerning among us.
​
For the entirely inclusive stay, all meals—from our Thursday welcome dinner to Sunday’s farewell breakfast—are yours for $325 per person (or $650 per couple). Simply make your way to the RSVP link for details on the payment portal, where you’re welcome to contribute in installments, as suits you best.
​
For those who yearn for a bit more solitude, offsite lodgings await nearby, with a few Airbnb options on hold should you need. Simply reach out if you’re interested. Even if offsite, we would be delighted for you to join us for meals and festivities at Hawkesdene! Just indicate in your RSVP which meals you’ll attend so our estate culinary team can work their magic with precision.
​
So, please, peruse these photos to whet your appetites for what awaits. We cannot wait to share this magical time together!
​
With love and anticipation,
Stephanie and Eric (written by Moira Rose via ChatGBT)
