“Thank you so much for the extraordinarily hard work that goes into planning these events. From the beautiful set up and dazzling atmosphere, your work made it possible for book and fantasy fans to be transported into magical worlds! I am always in awe at how thoughtful and well executed the Fantastique Collection by Un Jour D’Amour Events is.

“My happiest memories are at these events!!! Whether you religiously read fantasy books or just love the aesthetic of fairytales, the venues, decor, and music will have you absolutely swooning. It’s impossible to not take a million photos despite there being incredible & expert photographers that send you the most beautiful pictures soon after the event! I ALWAYS make sure to vlog since there’s so much to do and look at, and the amount of detail is so incredible that I find myself noticing new things while looking back on the videos. Each event is decorated to its fullest potential, and it never fails to fill our vacations with amazing memories. I cant WAIT to attend another one!”
