As guests mingled on the expansive lawn, the great house glowed in a backdrop of multicolored lights -- a solid reminder of a bygone era. The delicious, complimentary sangria, made by Robin deLisser, was hands down "the drink of the night" and it seemed to flow in unlimited supply. A light Georgian fare followed with an assortment of European cheeses, roast pork, et al. And then the surprise entertainment of the night -- a bevy of professional dancers renacted poignant scenes from the grisly tale of The White Witch of Rose Hall.
