White Lotus Bluemont · 4th Annual Country House Weekend

Welcome back
to our favourite weekend of the year

Every summer we pull together the people we love most, drag them out to the Virginia countryside, and build something that feels a little bit magic. Two days of long lunches, late swims, cold drinks, loud music, and the kind of conversations you only get when you're all in the same place at the same time. This year there's also a little extra reason to celebrate — you'll see.

This year's theme is the White Lotus Full Moon Party — a nod to the full moon rising on Sunday night. Saturday evening includes an optional gathering at 9:30pm; if you'd like to join, a white outfit is the dress code for that moment specifically. Wear whatever you feel great in for the rest of the weekend.

White Lotus Bluemont · Full Moon Ceremony

Something Special
Awaits You

At 9:30pm, those who feel called
will gather under the full moon.

This is a completely optional, invitation-to-participate moment — not a mandatory event. Come curious, come open, or simply enjoy the night your own way. All the details will be in your welcome packet.

If you join: wear white 🤍

A moonlit ritual of nurture, intention, carrying forward, and release.

1
🌿 Air Plant
Nurture
Take your air plant home as a living reminder of what you are growing.
2
🌱 Seed Card
Propagate / Begin Creating
Write an intention for what you want to grow, start, or welcome.
3
🌸 Herb Sachet + Stone
Carry Forward
Choose a stone and add it to the lavender, jasmine, and rose blend. Hold it with an intention.
4
💧 Dissolvable Paper
Release
Write what you are ready to let go of and place it in the moonlit bowl by the Buddha.

There is no right way to participate.
Choose what feels meaningful.
