Off to the ball we go!

 

During the Regency Era, it was not uncommon to attend two balls per week during “the season” — a six-month period between about November and July. The aristocrats would descend upon London from their country estates in order to secure their status by working their contacts, forming allegiances, buying and selling property. These balls have one purpose- to secure marriages and unite powerful families.

 

The Cotillion

Balls and dancing are something present in many Regency books and movies. The Cotillion was one of the most popular dances they would participate in during these balls. Do you have a favorite dance you like to do at a party or wedding?

A Year Without a Summer

We love to romanticize the Regency, but they had their share of struggles during this time as well. 1816 was called “the year without a summer,” when a volcanic eruption in Indonesia caused dust to block out the sun around the world. This led to colder weather and caused many harvests to fail.

Regency Mattresses

How many mattresses do you have on your bed? If you had lived during the Regency, you might answer 3 or more! Because mattresses were so thin, it was common to pile them up to achieve more comfort.
