I might not have a connection for heels, and blades are most definitely not allowed on premises. But what I do have are some incredible connections to ladies who offer custom dresses, hair, nails, and makeup services.

What People Are Saying

  • “What really set this event apart from other Fantasy events was not only do you get to come and show off your favorite fantasy looks, but it was specifically curated to make connections. It wasn’t simply an event to go to with a friend, take some pretty pictures, and dance; it was designed with networking in mind. Everyone was excited to meet new people, share business cards and creative ideas, enjoy what others bring to the table, and have everyone a space to strut ALL their stuff!! A place where creatives could gather and trade ideas together, make connections, and open doors to new possibilities all while looking truly sensational.”

    - The Nordic Siren

  • “It was soooo hard to pick a favorite vendor because every single person there was so amazing. The photographers did not take one bad shot the entire night and I got so many cute pieces of jewelry, but I felt like the carriage ride was just a super fun and whimsical touch that I’ve never experienced at a fantasy event before!”

    - Kayty

  • “Fantasy on the red carpet was an evening full of ambitious, driven, like-minded creatives, coming together with a common goal. Where competition and comparison can easily bread, I saw only support and genuine excitement from my fellow attendees. Hands were shook, drinks were shared, and connections were made. If you ever have the chance to attend this event TAKE IT.”

    - Sarah H

  • “This event was absolutely incredible. I truly enjoyed the balance of live entertainment, scrumptious food, and networking with other creatives from around the country. I left the event with a full and grateful heart, tons of content, and a now much longer contact list. It was truly the event of the season!”

    - Coral Koi

  • “The entire night was a visual dream! From the stunning decor and vendor setups to the incredible outfits, everything was absolutely beautiful. My personal highlights were the endless photo ops and the delicious spread of snacks and desserts available all evening. I also really appreciated the randomly assigned seating. It was such a great way to break the ice and get everyone talking to new people. Between the activities and the food, there was never a dull moment!”

    -Amber B

  • “Fantasy on the Red Carpet was such a fun way to express creativity and meet other creatives in the business, especially those I’ve interacted with online for months but had never had the chance to meet. The event did a wonderful job of creating great places to shoot content and make lasting memories! They also had the best and most professional staff helping out! Walking the red carpet and doing the GlamBot really made everyone feel special! All in all it was a fantastic event and I really hope to make it back again next year!”
