Dearest gentle reader...We may have to wait another year, or two before we can return to the glittering balls and amorous adventures of the London social season. But have you ever wonder what the Bridgerton family and the rest of the ton got up to at Christmas? Elegant, candle lit Royal dinners; concerts and caroling with family and friends, stealing kisses during cheeky parlor games and raucous twelfth night masquerade balls! We’ll explore the novels and real life of Jane Austen, and reports from newspapers and the royal family ledger, to find out what was going on in December in the early 1800s. So don your silk empire waist gown, or tie your cravat, and either way, curl your hair, as we travel back in time to enjoy a Regency Christmas!
