It’s officially one month until Rosé in the Roses on June 11! 🌹We can’t wait to see everyone dressed in their garden party best – including statement-making headwear! Thank you to all the fashionistas who attended our Fascinator Workshop at the Botanical Center and created some show-stopping floral accessories with the help of instructor Michelle Carden.

This past Friday was especially awesome thanks to a preview show from Ringling featuring talented acrobats, a Movies in the Park screening of The Greatest Showman, and, of course, Food Truck Friday!
