What Our Attendees Are Saying
OMG! This girls' night was EVERYTHING! My friends and I had the BEST time. The yoga was super chill and a great way to start the night, and the painting instructor was hilarious – she made it so easy even though I haven't picked up a paintbrush since kindergarten. But the charcuterie board part? Total highlight! We learned all these cool tricks for arranging everything, and now I'm basically a pro. Plus, the wine was flowing, the music was great, and we got some amazing Insta-worthy pics. Definitely recommend this for a fun night out with your besties! 😉
This was exactly the kind of relaxing and fun evening I needed! It was so nice to catch up with my friends in a creative and low-key setting. The yoga was a perfect way to unwind after a long week, and the painting class was surprisingly therapeutic. I loved how the instructor encouraged us to embrace our own styles and not worry about being perfect. The charcuterie board workshop was a fantastic addition – I picked up some great tips and now I feel confident putting together a beautiful board for my next get-together. The whole experience was well-organized and the atmosphere was so welcoming. I would absolutely do this again!
My friends and I had a wonderful time at this girls' night out event. The yoga was gentle and restorative, just what we needed. The painting class was a lot of fun, and the instructor was very patient and encouraging. I haven't painted since I was a girl, so it was a real treat to rediscover my creative side. The charcuterie board instruction was excellent, and we all learned some new techniques for arranging and presenting the food. It was a lovely evening overall, and a great opportunity to spend quality time with my friends. The only minor suggestion I would have is to offer a decaf coffee option alongside the wine.
