People paid up to $1400 for a VIP experience at a Bridgerton-themed ball, only to be met with a solo violinist and an off-theme pole dancer. The ball, which took place on September 22 in Detroit, USA, was advertised as a “splendid soirée,” however, a slew of guests documented the disastrous event.
According to the event organizer Uncle & Me LLC, the now-infamous event took place at the Harmonie Club in downtown Detroit. Guests were encouraged to dress in the Regency-era fashion to “win $2,000 cash for best dressed.”
Meanwhile, Chelsea Beard, the event planner, spent the days leading up to the party promoting it, as one of her posts related to the ball on her Instagram page read: “It’s bound to be an enchanting evening of elegance and charm! Join us next Sunday at The Harmonie Club for an unforgettable night.”
