A Day with Dames: A Celebration of Femininity and Connection
There’s something magical about women coming together, sharing stories, and creating moments that feel like warm embraces. A Day with Dames was just that—a day dedicated to sisterhood, self-care, and embracing our femininity through intentional, simple joys. From crafting the perfect picnic to gathering for a candlelit dinner, each moment was an invitation to connect, laugh, and indulge in the beauty of togetherness.
A Picnic to Start the Day
We began with a sun-kissed picnic, spreading out soft blankets under the open sky. Croissants, fresh fruit, and bubbly mimosas set the tone for a leisurely morning. It was a moment to pause, breathe, and appreciate the company of kindred spirits. The art in every Summer Forever Scented Candle added an effortless charm that brought life and color.
The Art of Grazing
Next, we turned our attention to creating a grazing board—a feast for both the eyes and the palate. With cheeses, cured meats, and fresh produce arranged in harmonious abundance, the process itself became a meditative practice. The gentle aroma of woody and floral notes from the candles infused the space with an air of freshness, making the experience even more sensory and delightful.
Cooking and Connection
Gathering in the kitchen, we cooked together—measuring, stirring, tasting. There’s an unspoken intimacy in preparing a meal with others, an exchange of stories and laughter woven into each dish. As we moved through the process, the moment felt timeless, as if we were part of a long tradition of women before us, coming together in the simple act of nourishment.
An Evening to Remember
As the day transitioned into evening, we sat around a beautifully set dinner table, the glow of candle light casting soft shadows against our plates. Wine glasses clinked, laughter filled our bellies, and the air was thick with gratitude. The Summer Forever Candle collection added the perfect finishing touch, filling the space with a delicate warmth that made the night feel like a dream.
A Gentle Reminder
A Day with Dames was more than just an event—it was a reminder that femininity is found in softness, in connection, in the way we care for ourselves and each other. Whether it’s through a shared meal, a thoughtfully curated space, or the gentle flicker of a candle, these moments matter. And perhaps, in the midst of our busy lives, we can find time to recreate these simple joys, letting the warmth of sisterhood and soft candlelight guide us home.
