Dearest Gentle Reader, In just one weeks time, yo

Dearest Gentle Reader,

In just one weeks time, you will have the opportunity to procure your invitation to the Ladies of Hemsworth Estate's annual Country Ball.

This year's theme? The Four Seasons...
The location? New and yet to be revealed...

We can't wait to host you for our most memorable ball yet. Do you have your calendar marked?

In just one week, our dearest friends, the Ashburt

In just one week, our dearest friends, the Ashburton-shire Ton who have attended our previous balls will receive their invitations to our 2026 Country Ball - The Four Seasons 🍂❄🌸🍃

24 hours later, on December 2nd the Waitlist (which is now larger than our capacity for the ball - thank you!) will receive their invitations.

And finally the remainder of the tickets will be open to the public on December 3rd. We cannot wait to share our plans for our third Bridgerton-inspired ball, it's going to be bigger and better than ever!

Yours truly,
The ladies of Hemsworth Estate

👉 Swipe to turn this into a cocktail! 🥂 I'm a bit late to make elderflower cordial this year but I still managed two batches of lovely floral liquid gold that's not only great for hayfever but delicious with champagne!

Have you tried it?

Do you want to see what a Princess's High Tea birthday party with 12 dogs looks like? Of course you do! 😅🐾 Swipe for the full experience 👉🏻

When we were asked to host a very special furbaby's 10th birthday, how could we not?

It was a pleasure to host this special dog friendly high tea with a matching course for pawrents too! Happy Birthday Princess Mia! 🐾

Just over a year ago we hosted Hannah and Hamish's spring garden party wedding in a clear marquee by @perfectsettingsnz and florals by @kakarikiflowers 🌷

If a spring luscious garden, bright colours, and a beautiful historic country home is on your wedding Pinterest board, we highly recommend a November wedding at Hemsworth Estate. 💃🏻

Congratulations Hannah and Hamish, we hope your first year of marriage has been everything and more! Here's to the next year 🥂

Behind the scenes of our new project! We made so much progress this Sunday 😍 any guesses what this is for?

Thank you to everyone who participated in our stor

Thank you to everyone who participated in our stories. You've really helped us plan camp Hemsworth and I'm super excited to prepare two of my favourite cuisines! 👩🏻‍🍳

You've also helped me realise were all a little busy this spring and summer 🥴 It's nice to know we're not alone and a bit of half assing is all it takes to have something nice to look forward to in the garden 👉🏻 Swipe to see the poll from our stories asking how your gardens are doing.

Although the irony of planing tomatoes and beans for it to hail is really nature's timing isn't it? 😅 (I managed to get them protected in time)

Did your garden fare ok in the hail?👀 What other BTS do you want to participate on for Camp Hemsworth? Let us know 👇🏻

Help us decide what dinner party theme we should h

Help us decide what dinner party theme we should host! We're deep in planning mode for our summer camp and have two themed dinner evenings.

The first on arrival night is a more relaxed Italian style aperitivo and alfresco dinner. Or... Should it be french/Provence inspired "en plein air" as the French say? 👀

The next night we go all out on a theme 💃🏻 Last year we had an 🌷 enchanted garden party 🌷 and we've got a few more up our sleeve on our stories. Or should we have a french evening on this Saturday night? 🥂

So many decisions! 😳 Tell us your favourite ideas below 👇🏻 or go vote on our stories! We can't wait to host our second annual summer camp!

P.s we have one spot left if you're interested. Send us a DM and we'll give you all the details.
