Yes, we know that's not pocket change. Right now, it feels like everything costs more than it should. Groceries. Gas. Rent. Entertainment. It's easy to look at your budget and decide that staying home is the responsible choice. Believe me, I understand.

Our whole brand has always been about creating experiences that feel luxurious and unique while trying to do it for a reasonable price. Mistress Zeneca works hard to pack as much value as possible into every event because she knows every dollar you spend is earned.

Invest your happiness and in your community. Invest in an experience you can't get anywhere else. It's a bit of time to ignore that the outside world exists.

This isn't just buying admission to an event. You're investing in an experience. You're investing in your happiness. You're investing in your friendships, relationships, or discovering more about yourself. Three days - Friday night to Sunday morning of learning, laughing, playing, relaxing, making new friends, strengthening old ones, enjoying the all-inclusive meals, and creating memories you'll still be talking about months from now.

Time has a way of telling us that "next time" you'll be able to go or just can't afford it. But, if it's anything that we know right now is that tomorrow is never promised to us. There could be danger for our community members when they walk out the door. Let us enjoy our time together and forget that there are forces that could tear us apart - even if it's just for a little bit of time during a party.

Whips and Wine will not be returning next year - This is the last Affordable Kinky Camping in the Philly Surrounding Area

And if you bought a ticket and want to help on site set up decor and just overall lend a hand, please reach out on Fetlife: ElegantlyKinky (We could use all the hands we could get)

THREE CHERRY NOIR PARTIES COMING UP!!! Tickets will Open in July 15th for all these events.

We will send out another email when tickets are open. So this is the sneak peek preview of what's in store so you can plan accordingly. All these parties are vetted parties and will be offered at the lowest price that we can. Those details are still solidifying. We're hoping to LOWER the price for the events below. Our last party was $45 (plus fees) each ticket but hoping to lower them by a couple bucks.

CHERRY NOIR: PSYCHEDELIC PURPLE PASSION PARTY

DATE: Friday, August 21st, 2026 - 8pm-1am

This one is inspired by the Rock star known for his Purple Rain, the Artist Formerly Known as Prince. We have a soundtrack full of Prince, 70s Funk, Modern funky artists and songs, all with a very familiar feeling. Very danceable. The party is "psychedelic" because we're wanting to dive into the aesthetic of the 70s and 80s, from that special time where clothing and rockstars were weird and wonderful. Just look at the Glam costumes of the Parliament-Funkadelic to see that feathers, bell bottoms, and spandex DO go together. You're encouraged to wear something FUNKY or something PURPLE. It's not a dress code, just a suggestion. Mistress Zeneca of another teacher will do a class on the Violet Wand too!

This party will also feature a MASCOT promo - The Purple People Eater. We will have stickers to giveaway of the beast. And if this party sells out then everyone gets a ticket to Poundtown. ;)

CHERRY NOIR: DRAGON TAVERN AND GARDENS

DATE: Saturday, September 26th, 2026 - 8pm-1am

Pull your cart up to the venue and have a mead or ale with the fine fantasy folk of an imaginary medieval style aesthetic. This is a party that leans into the role playing a bit more and lets you bring out those Renn Faire clothes. Dress in costume as a fairy, elf, goblin, hobbit, dragon, humanoid furry creature, or as a human fantasy warrior, royalty, wizard, etc. Animal people are welcome to pony up to the bar too! Take your dirty mind to the ends of the fantasy realm and THAT'S where this party could be. ;) Yes, we've seen those animated pornos. There will be a silent auction for the Large Fantasy Dragon Kite which will be hanging over the bar area and is the namesake for the "Dragon" in dragon tavern.

The soundtrack for this event will be a combination of upbeat ambient medieval music and world music that illustrates a melting pot of cultures, creatures, languages, and people. We're also bringing out all our flowers and greenery for the "Garden" aspect. (We have a lot of flowers).

CHERRY NOIR: DAY OF THE DEAD

DATE: Sunday, November 1st, 2026 - 8pm-1am

Get more use out of your Halloween costume for one more night of fun. We're continuing the Halloween weekend. You may also dive into the Day of the Dead style costumes and makeup if you like. Special FX makeup artist may be there.

Mistress Zeneca brings her Hispanic heritage to this event. We will be setting up an alter to the ancestors with marigolds and sugar skulls. Everyone will be welcome to place images or tokens for their passed on loved ones on the alter for the night. As we honor those that passed before us, we celebrate life in the most life-affirming ways we can - WITH BEING KINKY AND PARTYING.

This party we will be bringing out one of our NEW latex creations - Wearable Latex Lace - in Black, Red, and White. We'll be adhering it to people as a wearable item. Think lace around the thighs, chest, arms, and neck. We're going to get creative with it. Pictures and such will be posted on Fetlife and also detailed when tickets open. We're really happy to showcase this new unique lace latex look.

Update on the Wizard of Oz display for the Spring Faire at Burlington County, NJ

The Wizard of OZ decor displays and performance were for the Burlington County NJ Spring Fair at the Historic Smithville Park, Sun. May 17th, 2026 11am-4pm. We made hundreds of kids happy and had a solid line of guests. The entire Emerald City was up against a 30 x 30 foot tent, and literally made people gasp at the scale of it all.

​SEE THE INSTAGRAM REEL OF THE FINAL PRODUCT​

@ThingsThatShouldNotBe made the wall panels, @elegantlykinky made the entry arch and Poppy panels, @angstfactory painted the Poppy field panels, and @marcsanartistmaybe painted the Welcome to Oz signage, and Loud Tina was our Disney-style kid-wrangler and counter-point for The Great and Powerful Oz which was played by Mistress Zeneca, which controlled a Digital Puppet live, moving its mouth in time to her words. It was all done live even though many people thought it was an AI controlled character. We were the busiest attraction at the Fair. They want us back for next year!
