Want to throw yourself a decadent Birthday Bash? Looking for a unique Bridal Shower venue? Want to have the Best Bachelorette Party Ever?? Coco Coquette and Charm School Vintage are now offering party packages!

Imagine your friends arriving: your playlist is bumping through our speakers, the Proseco is chilling in the lounge and you have 2 hours to find the perfect wig and outfit before a professional photographer arrives to give you and your friends a photo shoot session that will put past ill-lit birthday blurries to shame.

Or maybe you want to go tear up the town, bachelorette style? We will provide an outrageous custom wig for the bride-to-be, and the guests will each receive a fun party wig. A makeup artist will be here to assist with false lashes, smokey eyes or pouty lips, whatever your whim. Try on a new outfit, dance, sip fruity cocktails and keep the party bus waiting, because every girl knows; the best part of going out is getting ready!

Catering menus available.

I've been meaning to put these pictures up since October 20th! Alas, Halloween proved to be a busy season for us and there was just no time left in the day to wait for photo uploading. I know that I've already thanked the many people who made this event such a stunning success, but it never hurts to give too much thanks, right? From designers, to performers and all the friends in between who gave this show the legs and magic it needed to dance, strut and writhe; THANK YOU. Dangerous Women was a show for the archives!

Dangerous Women!

13 Designers. 13 Dancers. 13 Dangerous Women!

Join us on October 19th for a costuming extravaganza like you’ve never seen before! Local designers, dancers and the duchess of crowning flourishes, Coco Coquette, will be taking the stage to inspire your Halloween transformations. 13 designs and accompanying performances inspired by the figure of the femme fatale will feature vintage threads from Esther Bangs, beautifully Frankenstein-ed into theatrical masterpieces.

Come peek in on our spectacle, tap into your inner dangerous woman, because, let’s face it-you can do so much better than “sexy schoolgirl”.

More details to follow!
